Pulp Fiction's Unmade Prequel: Double V Vega - Canned Goods

Quentin Tarantino is one of cinema's most unique voices. He has made countless movies such as Resivoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, though he has never made any sequels.
This wasn't the plan. In the mid 2000s, Tarantino planned a film that would have crossed over the worlds of Pulp Fiction and Resivoir Dogs. A movie that was both a sequel and prequel to those two respective films.
The film had the working title of 'The Vega Brothers' then later was revealed to be Double V Vega. Today, we're breaking down the development and cancelation of the unmade sequel.

00:49 The Double V Vega's Development
04:36 Why Was Double V Vega Cancelled?

I wish Tarantino was able to make all the movies he’s talked about wanting to do or having an idea for. We’d have double the amount of movies from him, and cool stuff like Tarantino doing an adaptation of Casino Royale, and a Tarantino Godzilla movie.

[@chrisgreig98]

I always knew he planned Casino Royale with Pierce Brosnan, but did he really he pitch a Godzilla film as well? I can only begin to imagine how batshit that would be if he ever made it...

[@DIOBrando-ij2bp]

​@@chrisgreig98 It's something he’s talked about a few times before, but I don’t know if it’s something he’s ever pitched. As far as I known he’s never said anything about meeting with anyone about it, and it hasn’t come up in interviews since Inglourious Basterds. But maybe he has, it came in 2014, but that 2014 Godzilla movie was in some form of development going back to around that time. Here’s a quote of him talking about it: I have an idea for a Godzilla movie that I've always wanted to do. The whole idea of Godzilla's role in Tokyo, where he's always battling these other monsters, saving humanity time and again -- wouldn't Godzilla become God? It would be called LIVING UNDER THE RULE OF GODZILLA. This is what society is like when a big f -- -ing green lizard rules your world.

What Quentin Tarantino should've done with Double V Vega in 2009: Keep the prequel going, and replaced the older and nonidentical Travolta and Madsen with a new cast such as Jerry O'Connell as Vincent Vega and Charlie O'Connell as Vic Vega.

[@nataszasuarez6243]

There is no replacement in this case.

[@KenMasters.]

@@nataszasuarez6243 Actually, John Travolta was the first and only Vega replacement. Michael Madsen was originally offered the role of Vincent in Pulp Fiction, but he turned it down with no regret, so they got John Travolta instead.

[@mwfilm]

He should write the initial idea as a novel

[@HemmasStudios_]

This is an EXCELLENT idea.

[@isabellamorris7902]

Don't know if it would be an incredible novel, because a screenplay is not a novel by design and Tarantino's approach to screenwriting is idiosyncratic, but I'd be very interested to read it

[@Kacpa2]

@@isabellamorris7902 He could work with a writer talented enough to translate that and his style/energy into prose.

[@rezaqalam482]

Tarantino was always said.when he's retire as movie director,he's always wanted to be a writter i hope we can have double v Vega novel

[@kadeklodt9464]

It should’ve happened 2 years after the release of the Jackie Brown. 1999 was a wildly great year for films.

[@s1050]

Would have loved this movie. Should have been made in the late 90s as a prequel with Madsen and Travolta playing their original characters at a good age

[@maralinekozial9131]

He basically did with From Dusk Till Dawn , just changed the character names is all

[@moffit1]

I'd of watched the hell out of a vega brothers movie ,the dynamic between 2 killers one absolutely unhinged the other does what he has to do would of been great

[@phillipwells2158]

Would be an interesting movie to see.

[@DaNxYsmells007]

No this is now my 1 and only dream movie

[@nemosthebandit]

I’m such aTarantino fan that even the films i hate at first become some of my favorite movies. Not sure about Once Upon a time in Hollywood yet because I really hated it but I also haven’t watched it again since my first viewing.

[@nickyscarfo2283]

Once upon was an amazing film

[@hq9684]

Hopefully he'll write a novel about Double V Vega in the near future.

[@HemmasStudios_]

It would be so, so cool.

[@not8719]

I mean now he could turn it into a book or animation but meh we’re probably not gonna see it

[@adamturner1563]

I would of loved this.

[@llarmstrong783]

I would like to see a prequel about Jules and Vincente

[@paypercutts]

Great vid mate! I love hearing about all the links between all of Tarantino's movies. You got your self another subscriber!

[@HemmasStudios_]

Thank you so much!

[@jerryeldini1849]

Why not do the prequel and use different actors to play the Vega brothers? Would there be any problem with that? Of course not. There are some great actors out there to choose from.

[@AAAnonimAAA1st]

Tarantino should challenge himself and make an animated movie out of this script. He would get his ego stroke and fans would get a treat.

[@oceanswav8028]

It can still be made with deep fake technology

[@CommieApe]

The twin Vega brothers is such a fucking stupid idea but I'd watch anything Tarantino releases.

[@AZBound3]

Would have been epic! A prequel to Pulp Fiction! Man!!!

[@AK47Gang100]

I wish he had made it

[@adrianlee3497]

He simply waited too long because he got too busy and distracted making other movies

[@carpenoctem775]

The Vega brothers.

[@threed7]

I really wanted a prequel 😫

[@freeman4real]

This woulda been a FUCKING FIRE MOVIE!!!

[@MegaAngel307]

Awesome

[@HemmasStudios_]

Thank you so much!

[@registradus]

[@worganmertz6177]

Good movie call it .The Cool.

[@pepperpeterpiperpickled9805]

It would have been cool if the twins of the Vega Brother were members of (Kill) Bill's Deadly Viper Assassination Squad or something

[@theparsh5736]

Why did you stop posting on your original channel

[@maralinekozial9131]

Why can't Quentin just make a animated movie version of the Vega brothers???

[@user-hc9qv9yb9m]

Well it doesn't have to be a movie but a graphic...

[@HemmasStudios_]

Or even a novel! Tarantino writes books now, so maybe it can live again…

[@GetToDaChoppa-k5r]

Kinda glad this wasn't made.

[@HemmasStudios_]

It definitely would have been a complicated movie to make, so much could have gone wrong...

[@nicwinsteadart5330]

Who wants to bet that he just wanted to make a Luke Cage film not because he like the source material but because he wanted another excuse to say "Ni**er"

No just no

any excuse to make a movie utilizing that word is a good one
