Had Tarantino been successful in attaining the film rights for Casino Royale, his movie would have joined the likes of 1967’s Casino Royale and 1983’s Never Say Never Again as another unofficial Bond film that wouldn't count in the canonized entries produced by Eon Productions. While Tarantino’s plans for his own James Bond film have long been a hot topic among the director’s fanbase, his movie could have potentially caused significant problems for the official Bond franchise.
