Talking Tarantino to get Medieval?

Regardless of the Helen Mirren rumor, I hope it's true that QT is going Medieval!!!



Quote:
Notoriously unreliable UK tabloid The Sun [via digitalspy.com] reports that British actress Helen Mirren (The Queen, Gosford Park) is being courted by Quentin Tarantino to play a “foul-mouthed monarch” in the director’s “upcoming medieval movie.” In related news, Quentin Tarantino apparently has an upcoming medieval movie. From The Sun’s anonymous source:

“It will feature his trademarks - bloody violence and foul language. Helen has never worked with Tarantino and is interested. If the film goes into production it’s likely she will play a part.”

If this is real, I’m totally down for it because I’m down for anything Tarantino does; I was even down for Death Proof…that’s right, Death Proof. Moreover, we already have evidence of how tremendously well QT’s signature pulpy style can work against a historical backdrop. However, I have to warn you that this is probably BS. At best, it’s the faint whisper of a rumor. At worst, it’s The Sun making shit up again. This is the same paper that told us Eddie Murphy would be playing The Riddler in the next Batman movie. And that Shia LaBeouf would be playing Robin. So, you know…grain of salt and all that.

if a notoriously unreliable UK tabloid says it, it must be true

She is a great talent, I hope it is true.

OTOH, I don't know if the world is ready for QT characters using maces and thumbscrews and stuff on each other.

I heard about this as well. According to my anonymous source, the movie will be about Lady Jane Grey joining forces with Guy Fawkes and Oliver Cromwell to drive back the invading Vikings and Normans. Mirren will play Cromwell and Fawkes will be played by Danny Trejo. Jane Grey will be played by Sasha Grey.

I take any QT rumor with a big ass grain of salt. Sometimes the films he's rumored to be/talked about doing are just as interesting as the films he ends up making.

I was not a big fan of QT, but Inglorious Basterds won me over. I would like to see him do a Medieval movie.

As Marcellus Wallace told Zed in Pulp Fiction, "I'm gonna get Medieval on your ass!" So, I guess, Quentin Tarantino is gonna get Medieval on our asses!

Tarintino and Mirren, (maybe Trejo and Grey), can't wait! Hope it's true.
