Once Upon A Time in Hollywood

This is definitely going to be one of the biggest movies of the summer.

Welcome to #TrailerChest, where we’re taking a sneak peek at the brand new trailer for Once Upon A Time in Hollywood.

Plot’s it all about? Well folks, we’ve got ourselves a good ol’ fashioned Hollywood blockbuster.

The film takes place during the height of hippy Hollywood, and it centres around Rick Dalton (Leonardo DiCaprio), a struggling actor, and Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt), his best friend and stuntman, both of whom used to work on an old western TV show, and are still working as actors in the industry.

But once they arrive in a Hollywood they don’t recognise anymore, both men take it upon themselves to embark on an odyssey to make a name for themselves in the film industry during the Charles Manson murders in 1969 Los Angeles.

And although the trailer does appear to show the character of Charles Manson having a significant role in the film, the movie does look like it’s going to be a comedy.

Al Pacino will play Marvin Shwarz, the agent of Leonardo DiCaprio’s character in the film, while Margot Robbie plays Sharon Tate.

Starring: We’d probably be quicker telling you who isn’t starring in this movie, but here goes. Leonardo DiCaprio, Al Pacino, Brad Pitt, Margot Robbie, Kurt Russell, Timothy Olyphant, Emile Hirsch, Tim Roth, Burt Reynolds, Michael Madsen, Dakota Fanning, Scoot McNairy, James Mardsen and Damien Lewis.

Directed by: Quentin Tarantino.

Irish release date: 14 August.
