QT all set for Inglorious Bastards!

July 09, 2008


Following the Cannes announcement that Inglorious Bastards would be his next film, news on Quentin Tarantino's WWII ensemble piece has been coming thick and fast, with the juicy rumor nuggets hitting the web this morning.

Deadline Hollywood Daily reports that Tarantino is in talks with none other than Brad Pitt over a starring role in the film.

The rumour mill has been cranking out casting gossip for the film for literally years, with the disparate likes of Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis, Adam Sandler and Eddie Murphy all discussed for roles.

It has only been about seven years in the making but Quentin Tarantino's World War II project Inglorious Bastards is finally inching towards becoming a reality.

Deadline Hollywood Daily also reports that Tarantino's screenplay has now been submitted to all the major Hollywood studios except for Sony. The site also claims that Harvey Weinstein will produce but not finance the film; he formerly ran Miramax, where Inglorious Bastards was once set up at.

DHD, citing Tarantino, describes Inglorious Bastards "as a Spaghetti Western meets World II film that's an homage to the Dirty Dozen with a story about a group of soldiers on their way to be executed who get the chance of a reprieve."

Tarantino has previously said that he hopes to have Inglorious Bastards ready for a 2009 release and that it might be split into two films, a la his Kill Bill.

I'd like to see Bruce Willis and Adam Sandler appear in this film.

The only factual rumor not given in that article is that QT wants Schwarzenegger to play a part in this too.

All things considered, this could turn out to be a real kickass actioner.

I think I'm the only person in these parts who doesn't like Arnold. I mean, Terminator, T2, and Predator are great movies, but other than that, I really don't care for him.

He is a big draw at the box-office. If QT has 1% chance of getting Arnie, he ll go for it.

One of the big three - Bruce, Sly or Arnie - will be in this one, for sure.

No- I can't stand him either, but the films I'll tolerate are different. If I was going to recommend an Arnold flick it would be either Hercules in New York or True Lies, because he's so rediculous in those films.
