During the Cannes Film Festival, Quentin and the cast of the film addressed the media and when Leonardo was asked about working on the film and especially what he thought of Quentin, the actor said, "There are few people in this world that have this collective knowledge about, not only cinematic history but music and television. It’s like tapping into a computer database...in a way, I think this story is his love story to the industry.” From Reservoir Dogs to the Hateful Eight, Our Pick of One Terrific Scene From Every Movie Made by Quentin Tarantino.
The film stars DiCaprio in the role of television star Rick Dalton whereas Pitt plays the role of his stunt double. The plot has them go through the changing timeline of the industry and its ways. The trailer promised a lot of retro action, humour-filled power packed dialogues and we expect the film to do the same. Once Upon A Time in Hollywood is all set to release on August 9, 2019.
