Just a week after it was finally confirmed that Quentin Tarantino's WWII flick Inglorious Bastards was getting out of development hell and set for an October production date, two casting possibilities have popped up online. There's been a rumor going that Pitt could be a possibility and Variety is now confirming that Quentin wants both Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio to co-star in his homage of the classic Dirty Dozen.
Pitt has some experience working with Tarantino from their experience on True Romance, where he played a small role as a stoner who couldn't give proper directions. Since production is going to roll in Germany and France, where Pitt and Angelina Jolie currently live, it seems likely the two may hook up again.
The director met with Brad in France on Tuesday to talk about the possibility of Pitt playing the key role of Aldo Raine. Tarantino also plans to meet with Leonardo DiCaprio for another lead role, that of Hans Landa, on Thursday.
Plot Summary: Quentin Tarantino's war epic "Inglorious Bastards" - a band of U.S. soldiers facing death by firing squad for their misdeeds are given a chance to redeem themselves by heading into the perilous no-man's lands of Nazi-occupied France on a suicide mission for the Allies.
