'Power combo': Internet rejoices as Brad Pitt reunites with Quentin Tarantino for 'The Movie Critic'

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Two of Hollywood's biggest names are joining forces once again to deliver what is being billed as a sharp, witty, and flavorful cinematic swan song. Acclaimed director Quentin Tarantino has recruited superstar Brad Pitt to star in his final film titled 'The Movie Critic', which is slated to start production later this year.

The project will see the powerhouse duo collaborate for the fourth time, after striking gold in recent years with hits like 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood' and 'Inglourious Basterds', as reported by Deadline.

'The Movie Critic' will follow fictional critic with characteristically acidic, cynical wit

Brad Pitt is set to star in Tarantino’s Los Angeles-set film 'The Movie Critic', which will likely be the director's last movie. 'The Movie Critic' has been described as Tarantino's love letter to a bygone era of film criticism and Los Angeles itself.

Set in 1977, it will follow a fictional critic working for an adult magazine who reviews popular mainstream movies with a characteristically acidic, cynical wit. While details about Pitt's exact role are under wraps, it is likely to be a meaty, scene-stealing character if their past collaborations are any indication.

Tarantino had previously stated that the lead role in 'The Movie Critic' would be filled by "somebody in the 35-year-old ballpark" and described it as "a new leading man for me."

Brad Pitt and Quentin Tarantino forged a successful partnership over three decades

Brad Pitt and Quentin Tarantino have forged a hugely successful partnership over the last three decades. Tarantino's unique, dialogue-driven directing style paired with Pitt's charismatic acting has resulted in some of the most iconic performances and scenes in recent movie history.

Their first team-up was a small role for Pitt in 1993's 'True Romance', which Tarantino wrote but did not direct. Over 15 years later, Pitt bagged the lead part in Tarantino's 2009 epic 'Inglourious Basterds' to widespread acclaim, kickstarting a new phase of frequent partnership between the two.

Their most recent and perhaps most successful joint venture was 2019's 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood', which saw Pitt win his first Academy Award for his brilliant turn as the charming stuntman Cliff Booth.

The film was both a critical and commercial smash hit, raking in $377 million globally. Now, to round off his directorial career with 'The Movie Critic', Tarantino seems to have decided to call on his trusted on-screen muse Pitt one last time to ensure he can end things with a bang.
