Brad Pitt an ‘Inglorious Bastard’?
Thursday July 10th 2008Brad Pitt may be heading off to war … in the 1940s.
Director Quentin Tarantino is courting Pitt to star in his next film: the eagerly anticipated, epic-in-scope WWII action-drama “Inglorious Bastards,” Deadline Hollywood Daily reports.
The news comes just one day after Tarantino finally sent out the script for the long-gestating project — it has reportedly been in the works since 2001 — to four movie studios: Universal, Warner Bros., Paramount and Sony.
Described by Tarantino as a cross between a WWII drama and spaghetti Westerns such as “The Dirty Dozen,” “Bastards” revolves around a group of soldiers who are on their way to be executed but are given a reprieve when they agree to head into Nazi-occupied France on a suicide mission for the Allies.
Should Pitt sign on for the part, it wouldn’t be the first time the in-demand star has uttered the patented cerebral dialogue of the acclaimed “Kill Bill” and “Pulp Fiction” auteur. Pitt had a small but hilarious role as pot-smoking couch potato Floyd in the Tarantino-scripted (but not directed) “True Romance.”
