Michael Fassbender Joins Inglorious Bastards

AzazeallookingoodInglorious Bastards has added a german to their ranks in Michael Fassbender. We get wind of this news thanks to the professionals at Variety:

Teutonic thesp Michael Fassbender is in final negotiations to join the cast of Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglorious Bastards.”

Brad Pitt has signed on for the lead role as a Tennessee hillbilly who assembles a team of eight Jewish-American soldiers to take on the Nazis. Also on board are Mike Myers and Eli Roth. Tarantino is courting Nastassja Kinski, David Krumholtz and B.J. Novak.

Well, I think we have our first Nazi casting. Mr. Fassbender was in the glorious sword swinging actioner 300 and I consider his casting to be the best to date; save for Mr. Pitt. I have been confused, and less than enthused at some of the choices that have been made thus far (Roth, Meyers), but hope the remaining cast rounds out the group.

For all I know – the ensemble could turn out to be awesome, I have been wrong on many occasions. I’ ve been excited for this project for years now, and I think I am a little sensitive because of it. I have already played out the film in my head, and the casting is far from what I expected, that is for sure.
