Confirmed: “Inglorious Bastards” to be released August 21st…

Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglorious Bastards” has got a release date!!! Announced on New Year’s Eve, “Inglorious Bastards” will be released August 21st of 2009 of this year. The August 21st release date comes just after a few months of the Cannes Festival begins around May. Tarantino’s goal was that he hopes to have “Bastards” completed before Cannes Festival so he can debut his film there before release date, his wish may come true.

“Inglorious Bastards” stars Brad Pitt, Mike Myers and a bunch of other casts. “Bastards” took Tarantino years and years to write the script,  he’s finally getting the film off the ground and moving forward. The film will be distributed and released through Universal Pictures.

Report: “Inglorious Bastards” begins filming!!!

Quentin Tarantino has finally begun work on “Inglorious Bastards” in Germany, just starting off with principal photography.

The cast so far:

Brad Pitt, Diane Kruger, Melanie Laurent, Christoph Waltz, Daniel Bruhl, Eli Roth, Samm Levine, B.J. Novak, Til Schweiger, Gedeon Burkhard, Paul Rust, Michael Bacall, Omar Doom, Sylvester Groth, Julie Dreyfus, Jacky Ido, August Diehl, Martin Wuttke, Richard Sammel, Christian Berkel, Sanke Mohring, Michael Fassbender, Mike Myers, Rod Taylor, Denis Menochet and Cloris Leachman.

Look like Brad Pitt and Mike Myers will be the two big leading stars of the film. Tarantino tried to ask Leonardo Dicaprio for the film, but look like Leo turned the film down. This also pretty much confirms Sylvester Stallone will not be in the film as well. Oh well. Maybe Stallone and Tarantino will get the opportunity to work together in the future.

Thought: Who else should star in “Inglorious Bastards”?

So far the confirmed cast is Brad Pitt, Mike Myers, and Eli Roth. I’ve read that Simon Pegg pulled out and some unknown actor got in. It was already announced that Leo Dicaprio maybe getting in soon.

Who do you predict that maybe getting the “Inglorious Bastards” cast?

I’m thinking Sylvester Stallone may get announced soon because Stallone has been quiet about his next movie and I think Stallone is waiting for the right time to announce he’s in this. So I definitely have him in mind. I really think “Inglorious Bastards” would be great for Stallone, this movie almost belongs to Stallone and I really hope Tarantino gets him.

Other actors besides Sly….I think Billy Bob Thornton would be a great addition to the cast. Maybe David Carridine too. I think Denzel Washington would be awesome in this flick as well. As for actresses, I hope Tarantino doesn’t go after Uma Thurman again but I’d like to see Scarlett Johansson in this.

BREAKING NEWS: Mike Myers joins “Inglorious Bastards”!!!!!

Oh my! Another shocking casting addition to Quentin Tarantino’s WWII flick “Inglorious Bastards”! Yes, you heard that right! The Waynes World, Austin Powers and the Love Guru star, Mike Myers will star alongside Brad Pitt in “Bastards”.

Myers will play British General Ed Fenech, a military mastermind who’s mission to plot out a plan to destroy Nazis.

Myers going for something that is not a comedy film this time. Like Myers will have to speak an English accent and knowing how good he is at creating different voices when he speaks, I think that’s the reason alone Tarantino wanted him for the film.

This is an interesting cast so far.

Still no confirmation on Sly Stallone yet, but if anything, I’ll still see the movie in theater even if Sly isn’t in it or not ’cause I love Tarantino flicks.

BREAKING NEWS: Brad Pitt inks deal for “Inglorious Bastards”!!!!!!

OMG! It’s official! Pitt for “Inglorious Bastards”! Even Pitt’s newborn twins with Angelina isn’t stopping him from working!

Beware, this entire film is going to be in a different language, but the U.S. Soldiers will of course speak English. Pitt will play a Tennessee hillbilly who gathers several Jewish-American soldiers to hunt down Nazis.

I am feeling this film is going to be extremely violent and gory. Looking forward to this film.

Still nothing on Sly Stallone yet. 😦

Report: B.J. Novak joins “Inglorious Bastards”…

Tarantino is on a roll for the casting! When Tarantino said he was going to get the casting done quickly, he really meant it! Actor B.J. Novak who is known for playing for the hit TV show “The Office” is in negotiations with Quentin Tarantino to be casted in “Inglorious Bastards”. Novak maybe playing PFC Utivich in the film.

The Hollywood Reporter reports:

I’m glad Tarantino went for an unkown actor this time around! B.J. Novak rules!

Report: Eli Roth joins Tarantino’s “Inglorious Bastards”…

Quentin Tarantino finally started casting and he should complete the casting pretty quickly before shooting begins. Tarantino confirmed Eli Roth to play the character Sgt. Donnie Donowitz for “Inglorious Bastards”. The character is described as a baseball swinging Nazi hunter. Tarantino worked with Roth a few times before. He worked with Roth for “Death Proof” and worked for the horror film “Hostel” which Eli Roth directed and Tarantino was the executive producer.

Brad Pitt is currently in talks and Tarantino soon plans to meet with Leonardo Dicaprio to star in the film as welll.

How much do you want to bet that Tarantino will also get some of his regulars in the film too like Tim Roth, Steve Buscemi, Michael Madsen, maybe even David Carridine may have a small role. Maybe Uma Thurman too.

But I hope Sly Stallone has a role in this flick as well. That be sweet to see Sly co star along with Pitt and Dicaprio.

Report: “Inglorious Bastards” heading to Universal?

It looks like Quentin Tarantino’s WWII project “Inglorious Bastards” will land at Universal Studios. The studio has inked a deal with the Weinstein Co. to finally bring Tarantino’s new flick to the big screen.

Tarantino is also getting close to signing Brad Pitt to the leading role as he just met up with Brad to ask him in person.

Filming is scheduled to begin this fall in Germany and France. Brad Pitt is the first cast member to be considered to this flick so far. Tarantino continues to shoot down rumours of Stallone, Schwarzenegger, and Willis being in the flick too.

It’s great that he’s finally getting this project off the ground, looking forward to it. Could this film possibly dominate box office as the Dark Knight did? It wouldn’t surprise me.
