Brad Pitt is going to be a Bastard!

Cannes 2008: 'Changeling' - Premiere

It seems to be official now – according to Variety, Brad Pitt has officially signed on to play a role in Quentin Tarantino’s Inglorious Bastards.

Hang on. I have to go breathe into a paper bag. Brad Pitt and Quentin Tarantino. This makes me SO HAPPY.

Okay, all better now.

According to the article, most of the movie will be in French or German with subtitles; however, Brad will still speak English, playing a “Tennessee hillbilly who assembles a team of eight Jewish-American soldiers to take on the Nazis”.

There had been rumors that Leonardo DiCaprio would be cast in a role as well, though there is no mention of it now; he may have had scheduling conflicts. Casting is predicted to be finished within the next couple of weeks.

Because of the location of the film itself, it makes sense for Brad to choose to take on this role. By the time actual filming gets started, the babies will be a bit older and filming will be done nearby, in parts of France and Germany, so hopefully the Jolie-Pitt family will be able to remain at the chateau.

(Thanks, Ligaya, for the heads’ up!)
