Brad Pitt is joining
Eli Roth and starring in Quentin Tarantino's Inglorious Bastards according to Variety!!
Much of the pic's dialogue is in French or German, and subtitles will be used, though Pitt will speak English in his role as a Tennessee hillbilly who assembles a team of eight Jewish-American soldiers to take on the Nazis.
Eli had already signed on to play Sgt. Donnie Donowitz, a baseball bat-swinging Nazi hunter. In other words he will not only be one of his BFF Quentin's Bastards he will also be one of Brad Pitt's. Which I don't think it a bad thing. Seriously how hot do they look together? If that picture is a preview what the movie is going to look like, I can't wait to see this movie in June, 2009.
Other names being rumored to be joining this WWII epic, that begins filming October 13th in Germany, are Simon Pegg, David Krumholtz and B.J. Novak .
Inglorious Bastards sounds like it is going to be big Oscar movie of next year! It has Brad, Quentin, Eli, The Weinsteins, Nazi hunters and subtitles, what more do you need? Hopefully Eli Roth, Quentin Tarantino and Brad Pitt will all finally be bringing home that gold statuette for their work in this sure-to-be powerful future classic.
