We’ve gotten used to Tarantino putting together great casts for his movies and Django Unchained is no exception. We already have Jamie Foxx, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kerry Washington, Christoph Waltz, Samuel L Jackson, Kurt Russell, Tom Savini, Don Johnson, Gerald McRaney and (probably) Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Now Variety reports that James Remar (Dexter), Tom Wopat (The Dukes Of Hazzard), James Russo (Public Enemies) and Todd Allen (The Apostle) have been added to the mix.
The film sees Foxx’s Django escaping enslavement and with the help of Washington’s bounty hunter going of a mission of revenge against those who wronged him. Most importantly he wants to find his wife, who being kept be evil plantation owner Calvin Candie (DiCaprio).
Remar and Russo have signed on to play Ace and Dicky Speck, the slave trading brothers who originally bought Django. Allen is on as plantation boss Dollar Bill, and Wopat will be Marshall Gill Tatum.
Shooting is set to begin in January.
