The Oscar-winning director has let out that the new film, revolving around the life of a slave-turned-bounty hunter, is the second in the trilogy which began with 'Inglourious Basterds'.

Tarantino, who was named Director of Our Lifetime in the 200th issue of Total Film magazine, said, "I don't know, Inglourious Basterds and Django Unchained bespeak a trilogy.

"As different as they are, there is a companion piece quality. There might very well be a third one. I just don't know what it is yet."

'Django' which is set to release this December centers on a freed slave who, under the tutelage of a German bounty hunter King Schultz, becomes bounty hunter himself. After assisting Schultz in taking down some bad guys for profit, he tracks down his slave wife and liberates her from an evil plantation owner Calvin Candie.

Tarantino has lined up actors like Jamie Foxx, Christoph Waltz, Leonardo DiCaprio, Samuel L Jackson, Kerry Washington and Jonah Hill for the film.

Both the films have a period setting.
