According to reports from Deadline and Variety, Brad Pitt is in talks to star in Quentin Tarantino’s upcoming film, “The Movie Critic.” This collaboration will mark the third time that Pitt has worked with Tarantino as a director, following their successful projects “Inglourious Basterds” in 2009 and “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” in 2019.
While Pitt has previously appeared in a film written by Tarantino, namely 1993’s “True Romance,” this would be the first time he joins Tarantino’s cast for one of his directorial projects. “The Movie Critic” is said to be based on a real film critic whom Tarantino greatly admires. In an interview with Deadline in 2023, Tarantino revealed that the film is set in 1977 California and revolves around a relatively unknown movie reviewer.
The film’s plot centers on a character who, despite not being famous, had a significant impact on the world of cinema through his thought-provoking reviews. As of now, Pitt is the first known cast member to be associated with “The Movie Critic,” and fans are eagerly anticipating further updates on the project.
It’s worth noting that this film is expected to be Tarantino’s directorial swan song, making it a highly anticipated project for both fans and critics alike. As one of the most influential and innovative directors of our time, Tarantino’s final film is sure to leave a lasting impression on the industry.
Representatives for Pitt and Tarantino have yet to confirm the casting news, but the potential reunion of these two talented individuals has already generated significant buzz in the film community.
