Bob Weinstein

Harvey Weinstein's former company has filed for bankruptcy, months after the Oscar-winning producer was accused of multiple sexual assaults.

The move by the Weinstein Company is intended to facilitate a buy-out offer from a private equity firm.

Oscar-winning filmmaker Quentin Tarantino is planning a movie based on the notorious Manson Family killings, according to U.S. media.

The American director is discussing the project with several A-list actors, the Hollywood Reporter said on July 11, and will direct from his own script.

Tarantino is prepping his ninth feature, and if his earlier claim that he'll retire after 10 films, this one will be his penultimate movie. Working once again with Bob and Harvey Weinstein, the untitled script promises to be a "unique take" on the Manson Family murders.
