Sony Pictures has released the poster for director Quentin Tarantino’s ninth cinematic epic, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, which features the two stars (Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio) against the backdrop of the Hollywood hills.
Along with Pitt and DiCaprio, the massive ensemble cast for the film also includes Margot Robbie, Burt Reynolds, Timothy Olyphant, Michael Madsen, Tim Roth, Damian Lewis, Luke Perry, Emile Hirsch, Dakota Fanning, Clifton Collins, Keith Jefferson, Nicholas Hammond, James Marsden, Julia Butters, and Scoot McNairy.
Set in Los Angeles in the summer of 1969, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood focuses on a male TV actor named Rick Dalton (DiCaprio) who’s had one hit western series and is looking for a way to get into the film business. His sidekick Cliff Booth (Pitt) — who’s also his stunt double — is looking for the same thing. The horrific murder of Sharon Tate (Rick’s neighbor in the film, portrayed by Robbie) and four of her friends by Charles Manson’s cult of followers serves as a backdrop to the main story. The movie is said to be similar to a “Pulp Fiction-like tapestry” that covers a group of characters during that summer.
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is slated for release on August 9, 2019.
