Quentin Tarantino is in early talks to direct episodes of FX’s Justified: City Primeval. The acclaimed director would get the chance to work with Timothy Olyphant on the long-awaited revival of the hit series. Deadline reports that negotiations are in the early stages. But, that would not stop fans of U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens from shouting their approval on social media. Not too long ago, the duo united for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Tarantino also has a soft spot for Elmore Leonard’s work as the man who created the cowboy character on FX’s series. Jackie Brown is adapted from the author’s novel Rum Punch. Another reason for people to get excited is the clear thematic link between the Marshal’s adventures and the director’s affection for the Western genre. It’s been a long time coming, but Justified is about to be back with some wild buzz if this becomes set in stone.
