Check Out the New Posters for Quentin Tarantino's The Hateful Eight

Two new posters have been released for Quentin Tarantino's upcoming western The Hateful Eight. Both posters follow the same moody, snow-bound theme, but showcase different cast members. The first features Kurt Russell and Jennifer Jason Leigh (playing 'The Hangman' and 'The Prisoner' respectively), while the second focuses on Demián Bichir as 'The Mexican'.

The Hateful Eight will be Tarantino's second western, following 2012's hit Django Unchained. It also stars Samuel L. Jackson, Bruce Dern, Tim Roth and Michael Madsen. In an interview for Deadline last year, the director described his vision for the film: "Just a bunch of nefarious guys in a room, all telling backstories that may or may not be true. Trap those guys together in a room with a blizzard outside, give them guns, and see what happens."

The movie is also notable for the fact that initially it will only be released in the 70mm film format, arriving in cinemas on Christmas Day and not hitting digital theatres until January 8, 2016.
