Brad Pitt is reportedly starring in Quentin Tarantino’s final film The Movie Critic, according to a Deadline report.
The pair previously worked together in 2019’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood with the role bringing Pitt his first Oscar for best supporting actor. Pitt also starred in 2009’s Inglourious Basterds and featured in 1993’s True Romance, which was co-written by Tarantino.
The new Los Angeles-set film, allegedly Tarantino’s last, is set in 1977 about a critic working for a fictional publication called The Popstar Pages. Tarantino has said it’s “based on a guy who really lived, but was never really famous, and he used to write movie reviews for a porno rag”. He added: “He was very rude, you know. He cursed. He used racial slurs. But his shit was really funny. He was as rude as hell.”
Another Tarantino flick with racial slurs. Who could have predicted this?
