The movie of next summer will undoubtedly be the Quentin Tarantino written and directed film titled Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, a mystery crime film centering around the Manson family murders in the late 1960s. The film, which boasts a $100 million budget, features a star-studded cast top to bottom: Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Margot Robbie, Damian Lewis, Burt Reynolds, Al Pacino, to name a few.
Here’s the synopsis for the movie:
Quentin Tarantino’s ninth feature film is a story that takes place in Los Angeles in 1969, at the height of hippy Hollywood. 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.
The name Sharon Tate may be one you’re familiar with, as she was an actress married to director Roman Polanski who was murdered by followers of Charles Manson in her home in 1968. At the time of her death, she was eight-and-a-half months pregnant with the couple’s son.
Margot Robbie, known for her role as Harley Quinn and Tonya Harding, will play Tate in the movie. Robbie recently shared a photo on Instagram of her depicting Tate, wearing a black turtleneck, a short white skirt and tall go-go boots.
