Once Upon a Time in Hollywood centers around the horrifying Manson Family Murders that took place in Los Angeles in 1969. Judging by the mixture of both real-life and fictional characters in the movie, it’s likely that Tarantino will take creative liberties with the actual events that took place, much like he did in Inglorious Basterds in 2009. That film featured an alternate version of history in which a group of American soldiers succeeded in killing Hitler.
Tarantino has rounded up his most impressive on-screen ensemble to-date with Once Upon a Time, reuniting with Django Unchained star Leonardo DiCaprio, as well as Inglorious Basterds‘ Brad Pitt. This will mark the second time Tarantino has worked with each of the two A-listers, though they have never been in a film together. Suicide Squad‘s Margot Robbie plays Sharon Tate in the film, the actress who was one of the real victims of the Manson Family.
The trio is joined by Al Pacino, Timothy Olyphant, Dakota Fanning, Kurt Russell, James Marsden, Emile Hirsch, Tim Roth, Margaret Qualley, Damian Lewis, Lena Dunham, Bruce Dern, and the late Luke Perry.
