My pants get a bit tighter every time I think of Quentin Tarantino’s latest film slated to hit theaters on July 26, 2019. The film, titled Once Upon A Time in Hollywood, will be Tarantino’s first since the 2015 American Western The Hateful Eight and will chronicle the “Helter Skelter” murders by the Manson Family in 1969.

Once Upon A Time in Hollywood stars Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio, who will play two friends striving for fame in Los Angeles in 1969. DiCaprio will play Rick Dalton, an ex-star of a western TV show and Pitt will take on the role of his longtime stunt double, Cliff Booth.

If DiCaprio and Pitt proof enough that this movie is going to be incredible, check out the rest of the cast: Al Pacino, Burt Reynolds, Margot Robbie, Kurt Russell, Dakota Fanning, Timothy Olyphant, Tim Roth, Emile Hirsch, James Marsden, Damian Lewis, and the late Luke Perry.

By far and away Tarantino’s most impressive cast in his nine-movie career (mind you, Tarantino once claimed he was going to retire after his tenth film).

The first official trailer for the movie is going to be released this week, but Leonardo DiCaprio teased the public with the official movie poster.

I should never have expected a movie poster to blow my dick off, but I was certainly reasonable in expecting more than this:

I’m glad to see I wasn’t the only one disappointed by film art that looks like it was made by a Sony Pictures intern.

Rest assured, this does not quell my excitement for the movie, and it shouldn’t squash yours either.

The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
