'The Hateful Eight' Behind the Scenes Pictures

Quentin Tarantino's The Hateful Eight is well on the way to begin shooting as soon as next moth in Colorado, and one of the stars of the film Samuel L. Jackson has given us confirmation that things are moving along well to shoot the film on schedule. Then actor went on his Twitter (via Collider) and revealed a couple of behind the scenes photos showing us the cast of the film apparently during a script rehearsal.

Sure, these images don't give us any inside look at what the actual film might look like but I am sure we will get more revealing material once the film starts shooting, and with the rocky road that this film has had it's good to at least get some kind of confirmation that things are going well, and to me that's what these pictures offer. The Hateful Eight will also star Kurt Russell, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Walton Goggins, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, Channing Tatum, Demian Bichir, and Bruce Dern, it is expected to open in theaters in late 2015. Check out the behind the scenes images and full synopsis below.

In THE HATEFUL EIGHT, set six or eight or twelve years after the Civil War, a stagecoach hurtles through the wintry Wyoming landscape. The passengers, bounty hunter John Ruth (Russell) and his fugitive Daisy Domergue (Leigh), race towards the town of Red Rock where Ruth, known in these parts as “The Hangman,” will bring Domergue to justice. Along the road, they encounter two strangers: Major Marquis Warren (Jackson), a black former union soldier turned infamous bounty hunter, and Chris Mannix (Goggins), a southern renegade who claims to be the town’s new Sheriff. Losing their lead on the blizzard, Ruth, Domergue, Warren and Mannix seek refuge at Minnie’s Haberdashery, a stagecoach stopover on a mountain pass. When they arrive at Minnie’s, they are greeted not by the proprietor but by four unfamiliar faces. Bob (Bichir), who’s taking care of Minnie’s while she’s visiting her mother, is holed up with Oswaldo Mobray (Roth), the hangman of Red Rock, cow-puncher Joe Gage (Madsen), and Confederate General Sanford Smithers (Dern). As the storm overtakes the mountainside stopover, our eight travelers come to learn they may not make it to Red Rock after all…
