Official Photos Released For Quentin Tarantino's ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD
Thanks to Vanity Fair, today we have our first look at Quentin Tarantino’s ninth film, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood! As a long-time fan of Tarantino, I can’t wait to see what he ends up delivering for this movie. I like what I’m seeing so far!
This movie features an incredible cast of actors, many of which you’ll get to see in these photos. That cast includes Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Margot Robbie, Al Pacino, Kurt Russell, Dakota Fanning, James Mardsen, Michael Madsen, Bruce Dern, Tim Roth, Timothy Olyphant, Damian Lewis, Lena Dunham, Emile Hirsch, Luke Perry, Scoot McNairy and James Remar.
The film is said to be a Pulp Fiction-like story that centers on characters around Los Angeles in the summer of 1969. The Manson Family murders serve as a backdrop to the story, which follows the two lead characters Rick Dalton (DiCaprio), a former star of a western TV series, and his longtime stunt double Cliff Booth (Pitt). Both are struggling to make it in a Hollywood they don’t recognize anymore. But Rick has a very famous next-door neighbor…Sharon Tate, who will be played by Robbie.
Lewis will play Steve McQueen; Fanning is set as Squeaky Fromme, the Manson follower who later tried to assassinate President Gerald Ford; Nicholas Hammond will play director Sam Wanamaker; and Hirsch is playing Jay Sebring, the Hollywood hairstylist who was one of four victims in the Tate murders. Perry will play Scotty Lancer, Clifton Collins Jr. will play Ernesto The Mexican Vaquero, Keith Jefferson is Land Pirate Keith, and Pacino is playing Marvin Schwarz, who will be DiCaprio’s character’s agent in the story. Mike Moh will play Bruce Lee and Damon Herriman will play Charles Manson. Dern will take on the role of George Spahn.
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood will be released on July 26th, 2019.
