Quentin Tarantino’s “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” has been added to the competition lineup of this month’s Cannes Film Festival, general delegate Thierry Frémaux announced Thursday.
“We were afraid the film would not be ready, as it wouldn’t be released until late July, but Quentin Tarantino, who has not left the editing room in four months, is a real, loyal and punctual child of Cannes!” Fremaux said in a statement.
“Like for ‘Inglourious Basterds,’ he’ll definitely be there — 25 years after the Palme d’or for ‘Pulp Fiction’ — with a finished film screened in 35mm and his cast in tow (Leonardo DiCaprio, Margot Robbie, Brad Pitt).
