Django Unchained is the latest entry on director Quentin Tarantino's impressive filmography and it's also his longest film, surpassing Pulp Fiction (2 hrs 34 min). See the official runtime below.
Earlier reports said that at an initial screening the runtime for Django was 3 hrs and 12 minutes. That means we're losing about 27 minutes from Tarantino's initial vision. Depending on which version is his preferred cut, we'll either be getting a director's cut or a ton of deleted scenes on blu-ray.
"Django Unchained" opens everywhere on Christmas Day.DC Comics is currently working on the comic book adaptation of the film which features cover art from Jim Lee.
