Writer-director Quentin Tarantino has been scheduled to host a panel July 11 at San Diego Comic Con, the organization announced Saturday.

The released schedule said Tarantino will give fans an exclusive look at his upcoming movie, “The Hateful Eight,” from 1:30 p.m. to 2:15 p.m. that day. After the presentation, the cast will answer questions.

The Oscar-winner’s eighth film is highly anticipated and stars Samuel L. Jackson, Kurt Russell and Jennifer Jason Leigh, according to the Internet Movie Database.

The film was nearly scrapped by Tarantino when he was infuriated that the story line had been leaked.

Tarantino’s agent, Mike Simpson of William Morris Entertainment, could not be reached for comment.
