Brad Pitt confirms talks of Once Upon A Time In Hollywood mini-series – and finds the idea arousing

Once Upon A Time In Hollywood was a two hour 40 minute jaunt through Los Angeles in 1969, with Brad Pitt, Leonardo Di Caprio and Margot Robbie as our guides.

But if Quentin Tarantinos ninth film just wasnt long enough for you, you may been in luck.

Brad Pitt has revealed there could be a mini-series based on the summer smash – and he finds the idea pretty arousing.

Alright, get a room, Brad.

The 55-year-old confirmed that Tarantino has considered making a mini-series out of his latest film, just like he did with 2015s The Hateful Eight.

Writer Kyle Buchanan shared outtakes from his New York Times interview with Pitt, in which the actor addressed the directors plans for a Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.

He said: Yeah, hes talked about it. Its a pretty arousing idea.

While Brad says his heart lies with long-form film, he is interested in series that can explore characters further than movies can.

He said: I look at series where you can spend much more time on characters and story and explore angles you dont always get to do in films. So much of these films end up on the cutting room floor because they just dont fit in that box.

Its almost the best of both worlds: You have the cinema experience that exists, but you can actually put more content in the series format.

Tarantino, 56, released The Hateful Eight as a re-edited four part series on Netflix back in April, titled the extended version.

The movie featured a huge ensemble cast featuring Al Pacino, Emile Hersch, Margaret Qualley, Austin Butler, Dakota Fanning, Bruce Dern, Mike Moh, Damian Lewis, Luke Perry, Lena Dunham and more.

So far, Once Upon A Time In Hollywood has grossed $285.3 million (£231m) at the global box office while it has received widely positive reviews anRead More – Source
