“The two lead characters are Rick Dalton (Leonardo DiCaprio), former star of a Western TV series, and his longtime stunt double Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt). Both are struggling to make it in a Hollywood they don’t recognize anymore. But Rick has a very famous next-door neighbor…Sharon Tate,” described Tarantino.
Both Pitt and DiCaprio have worked with Tarantino before on separate movies (“Inglorious Basterds,” “Django Unchained”) and both projects were honored with Oscar nominations.
