LOS ANGELES (UPI) -- Quentin Tarantino wants his fellow U.S. filmmaker
Eli Roth to play a part in his new World War II picture, "Inglorious
Bastards."
Variety.com said Roth, the director of "Hostel," is in talks to play
Sgt. Donnie Donowitz, "a baseball bat-swinging Nazi hunter," in
Tarantino's latest flick.
Roth previously had a small part in "Grindhouse," the double feature
Tarantino made with Robert Rodriguez.
Roth also helmed one of the over-the-top movie trailers that played
during the "Grindhouse" gorefest, while Tarantino was an executive
producer on "Hostel," Variety.com said.
Brad Pitt also is in talks for a role in "Bastards," which Tarantino
is expected to begin shooting this fall in Europe, the entertainment
industry trade newspaper said.
Tarantino's other film credits include "Reservoir Dogs," "Pulp
Fiction" and "Kill Bill."
