Tarantino's Surreal Battle Royale 2 Cameo Plan (& Why It Didn't Happen)

Quentin Tarantino almost made a surreal cameo appearance in maligned sequel Battle Royale 2: Requiem. Tarantino has made no secret of his admiration for the original Battle Royale from director Kinji Fukasaku. The film saw a group of Japanese high school students being forced to play a life-or-death game on a remote island, with only one survivor allowed.

In a 2009 chat, Tarantino labeled Battle Royale his favorite movie that had emerged since he began his filmmaking career in the '90s.
