Inglorious Bastards, Pitt to star

Posted by: Bob on: August 10, 2008

Brad Pitt has joined the cast for Tarantino’s next film – a remake of Inglorious Bastards – as Lt. Aldo Raine who “leads a band of soldiers as they seek vengeance on Nazis in German-occupied France.” The synopsis for Inglorious Bastards is as follows:

A band of US soldiers facing death by firing squad for their misdeeds are given a chance to save themselves – by heading into the perilous no-man’s lands of Nazi-occupied France on a suicide mission for the Allies.

Shooting will begin in October and should be in theaters by June, 2009.

Perhaps even more exciting than Pitt starring in a Tarantino film is the fact that Simon Pegg (Shawn of the Dead, Hot Fuzz) “is in talks to join the cast.”

for a while leonardo dicaprio was attached to star opposite pitt, but tarantino decided to go with a “german speaking” actor instead, apparently.

also, i’ve read the first bit of the script, and this movie’s going to be insane. like crazy-awesome.

so apparently mike myers was just cast??? and now adam sandler is in negotiations? hmm…

Myers? Sandler? really. This intrigues me.
