Quentin Tarantino has roped in Samuel L Jackson, one of his favourite actors, to play a part in the one-night live reading session of his leaked script 'The Hateful Eight'.
The 'Pulp Fiction' helmer decided not to make the movie after the script was leaked online. He is currently fighting a legal battle with Gawker over the leak, reported the Ace Showbiz.
All proceeds from the event today will be donated to benefit Film Independent's programming efforts at LACMA.
The story of the film, which was intended to be Tarantino's next Western after 'Django Unchained', revolves around a pitiless and mistrustful group of eight people who are trapped together after blizzard diverts their flight.
