New Movie Releases DVD

A prequel to Quentin Tarantino’s 1997 cinema gem Jackie Brown is in the works — sans the trendsetting lensman, according to JoBlo.com.

Elmore Leonard’s hit novel The Switch — which first introduced the world to Robert DeNiro and Samuel L. Jackson’s villainous characters Ordell Robbie and Louis Gara — is being adapted for the big screen with the blessing of Tarantino, who will not step behind the camera for the feature.

The Switch’s 1992 sequel Rum Punch was the basis for Jackie Brown, which sparked a career revival for ’70s sex symbol Pam Grier after she was cast in the title role.
