Jamie Foxx

Jamie Foxx, 56, and Tarantino worked together on the 2012 film ‘Django Unchained’, which revolves around the life of slave Django (Foxx) who teams up with bounty hunter Dr. King Schultz (Christoph Waltz) on a mission to be reunited with his wife.

Foxx described Tarantino's directing style as being akin to a jazz musician's playing.

He said: "Working with Quentin Tarantino is the best. Because he’s like a jazz musician. He just plays. And he has incredible disciplines. He says, ‘I only shoot with one camera. I’m a director, not a video selector,’ so everything he shoots is one camera, it’s lean. The process at the beginning was, his words are the most important. And what’s interesting is, he goes on vibes. I would see Quentin Tarantino at clubs, dinners, things like that, and just be like, “You the baddest guy on the planet. If I ever get the chance, I’m really ready.'"
