After his next movie, Quentin Tarantino insisted that he retires.
Long stated he called it one day after his 10th project, the famous film director such as Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, and Django Unchained.
Tarantino's ninth film used to be "Upon A Time in Hollywood," released in 2019.
The 58-year-old underlined his want to move away from the chair of the director during a show at Real Time With Bill Maher.
“I know film history and from here on in, filmmakers do not get better,” he told the host.
“I don’t have a reason that I would want to say out loud, that’s going to win any argument in a court of public opinion or supreme court or anything like that.
“At the same time, working for 30 years doing as many movies as I’ve done, it’s not as many as other people, but that’s a long career. That’s a really long career.
“And I’ve given it everything I have, every single solitary thing I have.”
Tarantino, the winner of Pulp Fiction and Django Unchained's best original screenplay Oscar, mentioned Don Siegel as a manager who worked too long, as an example.
Siegel was noted for his collaboration on five films with Clint Eastwood, including Dirty Harry in 1971.
And Tarantino announced that he was planning a refurbishing for the final film of his 1992 criminal drama Reservoir Dogs.
Tarantino said: “If he had quit his career in 1979 when he did Escape From Alcatraz, what a final film! What a mic drop. But he dribbles away with two more other ones, he doesn’t mean it.”
“I won’t do it, internet,” he added. “But I considered it.”
US director Tarantino resides in Israel, alongside his 37-year-old wife and one-year-old son Daniella Pick, Leo.
