[AgentWhiskers]

[Guzim]

I'm really excited for this. I can't wait to see how Leo is.

[WrikaWrek]

Leo in a Tarantino movie, who would've thought.

Too bad Will Smith pussied out, my love for him went down a whole lot.

[effzee]

JGL dropped out?

[Expendable.]

JGL dropped out?

He's directing his own movie instead. Good choice, as much as I'd like to see him here.

[Scullibundo]

Hopefully replaced with the superior Hirschburger.

[JGS]

Gotta be for Whitta. He wants what Denzel had.

I was hoping it was for a Wild, Wild, West sequel. One can dream :(

[Net_Wrecker]

Can I get the Christoph Waltz one?

Kurt Russell and Sacha Baron Cohen have both left the film. OP updated.

[bengraven]

That's fine. QT usually has to cut out some cameos, so I'm assuming they were on the cutting board.

[Cheebo]

Kurt Russell wasn't a cameo. The role in the script was pretty decently sized.

[RobotNinjaHornets]

Kurt Russell and Sacha Baron Cohen have both left the film. OP updated.

No no no no no NO NO!

Kurty Baby :(

[delta25]

You just know this movie is going to stir up all kinds of controversy.

[24FrameDaVinci]

Read the script, awesome.

[bengraven]

Kurt Russell wasn't a cameo. The role in the script was pretty decently sized.

Well crap.

[Cheebo]

Well crap.

He was in a lot of scenes. He and Samuel Jackson are Leo's two main henchmen. Based on the script I can't imagine how in the world this will work if he walked off set because it's been filming for a while. Lots of reshoots I imagine

[Good Job Bob]

WTF!?!?!!??!?!?!

[shagg_187]

Kurt Russell and Sacha Baron Cohen have both left the film. OP updated.

IMDB messageboard as a source? Really? :/

[Atenhaus]

I'm so looking forward to this.

[TheKaeptain]

People are afraid of the awesome.

[madkiller]

I just hope that this Kurt Russell rumor is not true.:(

[Carbonox_Ratchet]

Will be hugely disappointed if Kurt Russell left.

[shagg_187]

I just hope that this Kurt Russell rumor is not true.:(

Don't think it's true. QT having KR in his movies is the biggest thing that can and has ever happened to him in the past few or so years.

[Solo]

They would have to reshoot a ton of the movie if he left.

[Wilbury]

Yeah having read the script it's a notable enough part that they couldn't just cut his scenes. Can't remember who SBC was playing though, if it was Scotty I'm surprised they're not recasting that as well

[Floex]

Director Quentin Tarantino must have written a doozie of a role for a certain Django Unchained character; not only has Kevin Costner left the picture, but now Kurt Russell has exited as well. Both veterans were slated to play the role of Ace Woody, a villainous character who trains slaves to fight each other for public amusement. Granted, the role isn’t feel-good like Man of Steel’s Pa Kent or Miracle’s Herb Brooks, but it’s a Tarantino flick; no one gets out unscathed. Costner had previously cited scheduling difficulties for his departure from Django Unchained, but Russell’s camp has yet to provide a reason. Slightly concerning is the fact that with a December 25th release date, there hasn’t been a replacement announced just yet.

Russell is confirmed to have left, that was just a little hint at what it might be. No reason confirmed, of course.

[Battersea Power Station]

Obviously I don't know what's going on behind the scenes but I can't help feeling that Russell and Costner pussied out.

Someone like Hugo Weaving, who's not afraid of tough roles, but with a "western look" needs to step up.

You never drop out or say no to any of them especially when your career is deteriorating. Ever! If Kurt Russel did drop out, his career is pretty much over. It was already over and QT has been trying to resurrect it.

Oh well...

well something is going on for sure, why so many are dropping the projekt etc is crazy, its Tarantino for fuck sake... something is going on they aint telling us.

[we.are.the.armada]

Oh my god, I totally forgot that this movie existed! Wow, this is going to be an amazing year for film.

That guy is amazing - he's Zach Galifianakis and Jeremiah Johnson at the same time.

[RustyNails]

Why Kurt Russel why? This was your only shot at the John Travolta in Pulp Fiction moment: Great star fallen into obscurity only to be resurrected by Tarantino, and you blew it.

[jakncoke]

Cant wait for this :)

[shagg_187]

Tarantino also brilliantly redeemed him in Death Proof. Oh well...

?

This would have been Russell's second QT outing.

[-Pyromaniac-]

Why are they pussying out, it's just a movie.

[THE NO LIFE KING]

Stuntman Mike, I am not please with this news. Sacha even more.

[IGotBillySoSpooked]

Yeah, because that shit-fest Death Proof did so much for his career.

Pretty much exactly what I was thinking. smh Kurt Russell.

[EliCash]

Will never understand the Death Proof hate. Well actually, I sort of do understand it but I disagree with it. I only like 2 Tarantino movies and that's one of them. Pulp Fiction being the other.

Wonder what the deal with this role is, should get Harvey Kietel in.

[bud]

? This would have been Russell's second QT outing.

death proof didn't exactly resurrect his career, though.

[Eltacoman]

I think I'm the only one here who loved Death Proof. What is everyone's major gripes?

[NG28]

You are not alone, I was just thinking the same thing.

[polyh3dron]

I think I'm the only one here who loved Death Proof. What is everyone's major gripes?

I liked Death Proof a lot myself. One person calling it a shitfest does not make it so. The reason it didn't do much for his career is two fold. One is that his character was a creepy murderous stalker who is emasculated at the end of the movie. The other is that it didn't do very well at all in the box office and therefore not many people saw it.

[THE NO LIFE KING]

I think I'm the only one here who loved Death Proof. What is everyone's major gripes?

- Pulp Fiction
- Jackie Brown
- Inglorious Bastards
- Kill Bill
- Reservoir Dogs
- Death Proof

Just because Death Proof is in last place on my list doesn't mean its complete shit. All his movies I like but, it's not the best QT movie for me. Kill Bill & Reservoir Dogs flip/flop on my list too. But damn, I love me my Tarantino movies!

[-PXG-]

I think I'm the only one here who loved Death Proof. What is everyone's major gripes?

I liked Deathproof. I guess people don't like it because it does take a while to pick up. It can come off as a bit pretentious and the characters trying to be too cool and into themselves. Then again, Jungle Julia was meant to be kind of bitchy.
