Okay, in all fairness, he can be a good actor AT TIMES!!!!! But most of his movies suck!!!!! But then again, we're not a big Kurt Russell fan and he rocked it in Death Proof, so we'll give Quentin the benefit of the doubt with this casting choice....
As reported earlier, Will Smith was in the running for the lead of Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained, but sadly turned it down, leaving the lead role open for Jamie Foxx to take over.
So here's what we know so far:
Foxx will play the title role of Django, a freed slave who teams with a German bounty hunter to take on an evil plantation owner in order to retrieve his long-lost love, Broomhilda. Kerry Washington, who played opposite Foxx in "Ray," has met with Tarantino for the latter role; she's one of a handful of contenders in the mix. Leonardo DiCaprio has been set as the sadistic slavemaster Calvin Candie, while Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds" star Christoph Waltz will play Django's friend and mentor. Samuel L. Jackson is expected to play Stephen, Candie's right-hand man.No matter the lead casting choice, or the fact that his surname is unnecessarily spelt with two x's, we will of course be looking forward to this one as we have with all Quentin's films!!!
