Quentin Tarantino has reportedly changed his mind about canning his Hateful Eight project.

The director is said to have planned a November shoot for the abandoned Western, according to Showbiz411.

Veteran journalist Roger Friedman quoted studio sources stating that the film's cast will include those who took part in a live reading of the screenplay in Los Angeles last month.

Samuel L Jackson, Bruce Dern, Michael Madsen, Kurt Russell, James Remar, Amber Tamblyn, Walton Goggins and Zoe Bell were among the cast.

Tarantino previously announced that he had cancelled plans to shoot the film after the script was leaked online.

"We'll see. I'm still writing the script right now," he said at the Cannes Film Festival last week. "I have calmed down a bit. The knife-in-the-back wound has started to scab."

The filmmaker has also withdrawn his lawsuit against webstie Gawker for linking to his screenplay, after it was allegedly leaked by a Hollywood agent.

Quentin Tarantino reunited with Pulp Fiction stars Uma Thurman and John Travolta at Cannes last week.
