Quentin Tarantino latest project
 

Quentin Tarantino, known for his graphic and violent films, is reportedly tackling a real-life crime for his next project: a film about the Manson family murders.

The Hollywood Reporter said on Tuesday that the project is still in its early stages. Mr. Tarantino is almost finished writing the script, according to the report, and actors including Brad Pitt and Jennifer Lawrence have been approached.

Charles Manson and his disciples have inspired a number of recent films and TV series, although Mr. Tarantino’s would be the highest profile yet.

Mr. Manson orchestrated killings in Southern California in 1969, with a group of men and women he called “the Family.” One of their victims was the actress Sharon Tate, the pregnant wife of the director Roman Polanski, who will reportedly be a focus of Mr. Tarantino’s film.

The dark material is nothing new for Mr. Tarantino, a writer and director of “Inglourious Basterds” and “Django Unchained,” among others. His most recent film was “The Hateful Eight” (2015).

Plans call for shooting to begin next year, The Hollywood Reporter said.

A representative for William Morris Endeavor, an agency reportedly involved in marketing the film to studios, did not immediately respond to request for comment.

IM a little shocked by this. Hes never done a 'true story' before. Plus, its a story thats been told alot.

Will watch though.....will watch anything he does.

Why give that sick **** even more attention? This story has been done to death.

He needs to make this movie as real as possible, and absolutely make you sit in your chair white knuckled make you cringe with your arm hair standing up, horrifying.

Like say....make you wanna hold your kids at night, frightening. It needs to be sick, demented, gory, dark etc.

He has done very well recently with historical fiction; I have high expectations for this.

These type of movies get me deeper through a wider range of emotions than most monster ghost flicks se to inventive scripts

Cool I guess. Didn't particularly care for The Hateful Eight but I do dig most of his stuff. Looking forward to seeing who he'll cast.

How's he going to fit the N word into this one?

I'm going to be charitable and assume you were focused on the humor of being snarky, and just ignore the possibility that you don't know a GAT DAMN thing about Manson. ;)

Actually, if people are interested in a decent way to learn a lot about the matter without expending a lot of effort, the podcast 'you must remember this' has an extended [like 12-15 hour] oral history of The Family and it's effect on later 60s LA. You can put it on to listen in the background.

You can find it on Itunes, or go right to the podcast source here;

Manson is a racist.

I wonder how he will fictionalize the murders?

Same thoughts I had but can see it working. Was a little underwhelmed with the last flick but even that was still solid enough.

Wonder if Uma Thurman's feet will make a cameo appearance in this one.

Great timing to announce this project

Chaz can go surf now

Hopefully it's better than that last snoozer he made. I dig QT movies, hope he isn't getting past his prime.
And please god no Samuel L. In this one.

Thanks Grampa HonestChieffan

Looks like Leonardo Dicaprio got the lead role. Hell yeah!

DiCaprio’s will play an aging actor in the story that is being kept under wraps but is a Pulp Fiction-esque movie set in the 1969 Los Angeles during the summer of the Manson murders.

Set for an August release in 2019. can't wait

.

Awesome!

Tom Cruise in a Tarantino movie. Huh.

RIP to Quentin Tarantino's career. Uma Thurman destroyed him and of course Harvey.

I think Leonardo will probably back out now .

She can't be too mad @QT, she kept her bare feet in the op-ed photo.

now i know why there hasn't been a kill bill vol 3 :D

I don’t think that’s a career killer.

Shitty of him, definitely, but not a career killer.

Agreed. But, according to Uma herself, he went hard at basically his boss, he could have lost his movie funding, made an enemy. Got in Weinstein's face and confronted him as soon as he heard. Thats a helluva better reaction that most had when they heard about Weinstein.

Absolutely. I was thinking more about the car thing. Sounds like he tried to do something about Weinstein.

Really hope you're right . Perhaps I jumped the gun here. :hmmm: I really really want Tarantino to continue to make films and work with the top A List talent. also, really intrigued by his Star Trek idea. Here's hoping this all blows over and Dicaprio stays on and works with QT.

I would kill to see his twist on sci fi. Hope it happens.

Yeah, it sounds like QT was a dick about the crash and that they had some fallings out. Nothing to major. He stuck up for her with Weinstein. That's worth something.

Damage done. Now that they smell blood, he's been 'Sterned'

In the mid-90's how many people went to their bosses and forced them to apologize and make it right to a victim of their sexual harassment or they quit? This isn't his history revisionist story, but the victim saying he advocated for her.

Only example I've heard from that era where a man put his career on the line for a victim of sexual harassment by a powerful man.

Unless more comes out, it would be totally wrong for a guy that actually stepped up to be run out of town.

I see they pulled the clip from youtube, but it isn't about Uma/Harvey. It's about QT on the Stern show in the mid-90s saying that the 13-yo Roman Polanski raped wasn't a victim, but was begging for a taste of some delicious Hollywood dick.
