Remaking a WWII movie about Nazis? Well, be sure to grab at least one German actor! That's what director Quentin Tarantino, Universal Pictures and The Weinstein Company have just done for Inglorious Bastards, though the actor will be playing a good guy in the flick. HR is reporting that German actor Til Schweiger, who's just wrapped up his role as Jack Carver in Uwe Boll's adaptation of Far Cry, is joining fellow cast members Brad Pitt, Diane Kruger, Christoph Waltz, Daniel Bruhl, Eli Roth, Mike Myers, Michael Fassbender, B.J. Novak, Samm Levine and Paul Rust.
Previous roles from Schweiger include King Arthur and Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life. Schweiger will play a member of the Nazi killer team, headed by Brad Pitt's character, Lt. Aldo Raine. Diane Kruger's role has been revealed as the glamorous German actress who ends up helping the Nazi hunters infiltrate a movie premiere.
Production is scheduled to begin October 13 in Germany with Tarantino hoping to premiere the film at next May's Cannes Film Festival.
