The Weinstein Company has set Jonah Hill to play a role in Django Unchained, which is in production. I’m trying to find out who he’ll be playing, but am told it won’t be Scotty Harmony, the kid who loses Django’s slave wife Broomhilda (Kerry Washington) to Calvin Candie, a charming but utterly evil plantation owner, played by Leonardo DiCaprio, which sets up a showdown with Django, the former slave turned bounty hunter played by Jamie Foxx.

Hill was eyed for the role early on, but had to turn it down because his schedule was so busy. He’s back in another role. Hill, repped by WME and Karl Austen, will next be seen in the Fox comedy The Watch and is also starring opposite DiCaprio in the Martin Scorsese-directed The Wolf Of Wall Street.

Thanks to Chopsaki for the submission.

Awesome, I like Jonah Hill.  I wonder what type of roll he'll be playing.

Yeah, I want to see him in a serious role. I haven't watched Moneyball yet.  Kind of weird he's working with Leo twice in a short time.

 You know, I like actors like Hill.  But, I kind of get burned out on them.  If they were not in every other movie, it wouldn't be a problem.  It is like the Depp syndrome (arguably, Depp is a superior actor to Hill).  Talented people, but there are tons of talent out there untapped.

I like Hill too, pretty much in everything I've seen him in. Like his delivery, facial expressions and demeanor. Rea;lly enjoyed him in Cyrus a week or 2 ago.

Anyway this sounds like a bit role, hopefully it's one of those short but really memorable ones. Whatever the case looking forward to this anyway
