Inglourious Basterds [sic] is an upcoming ensemble war film/spaghetti western[2] written and directed by Quentin Tarantino. It has the largest cast of characters (with speaking roles) of any Tarantino film to date and is currently in production with several locations, among them Germany and France. Tarantino plans to complete production of Inglourious Basterds in time for release at the Cannes Film Festival in May 2009[3]. Filming began in October 2008[4]. The title (and partial premise) of the upcoming film is inspired by Italian director Enzo Castellari’s 1978 movie Inglorious Bastards. The Weinstein Company has slated August 21, 2009 as the tentative U.S. release date.

Pitt
Here’s the first look at Brad Pitt in costume on the set of Quentin Tarantino’s Inglorious Basterds. Pitt has the starring role in this remake of the Dirty Dozen-ish WWII adventure as Lt. Aldo Raine, known to the Germans as Aldo the Apache for his practice of scalping his victims.
And if you wonder why Bastard’s, is spelled Basterd’s, read the script (Search this site).
I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS.
This was sent to me by one of our subscribers and I’m jumping up and down in excitement. According to an article on EOnline rumours that Brad Pitt is being considered to be one of Quentin Tarantino’s Inglorious Bastards.
There is not one single film I am more anticipating than this one.

The Oscar-winning writer-director has officially confirmed production will start in October on his long-shelved WW II epic and Pitt’s name is surfacing as one of the leads (along with Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, Arie Verveen, Bruce Willis and Sylvester Stallone; rumours rumours rumours)
According to this bite from The Hollywood Reporter, Tarantino plans to do the bulk of the shooting in Europe and hopes to finish the war drama in time to submit to next May’s Cannes Film Festival. That would seem to fit Pitt’s schedule, having set up a homebase in France awaiting Angelina Jolie’s birth.
