An unlikely on screen couple!
So over the weekend there were photos of Quentin Tarantino and Kylie Minogue, perhaps the unlikeliest onscreen duo we’ll, see making a film together. It’s as unexpected as anything we’ve seen this year and when we looked further into it this is how Quentin Tarantino ended up in a small film in Wales.
Thus is how Quentin Tarantino ended up in a small film in Wales…
Helmed by Jamie Adams whose films are mostly improvised his new film has New York producers backing it. Adams pitched the film to Tarantino out of the blue and offered him a role. Adams explained, “I sent him the story outline and a letter,” the Welsh director said. “I was just very honest about believing in him as an actor. Improvisation, the way I use it, is about being present and reacting organically. He’s one of the greatest conversational storytellers. I thought that would be incredible in character. I didn’t think I’d hear back. But two weeks later, on a Sunday, his agent emailed saying Quentin was intrigued and wanted a Zoom.”
Adams continued, ‘“Then I got on Zoom. And once you hear his voice, you’re transported. It’s like Disneyland for filmmakers. The conversation went everywhere, from movies, to a Welsh sitcom called ‘Gavin & Stacey,’ to what his life was like, what my life was like. At one point he tried to talk about the character, and said ‘I’ve written quite a few questions here about the character,’ and I said, ‘No, this isn’t the moment for that. That’s the next conversation.’ As soon as I got off, I thought, ‘Why did I say that?’ And he told me later that he loved that moment in that first conversation because he was like, ‘Well, I’m going to be directed.’ Two days later, he was on board.”
Quentin and Kylie shot scenes of a funeral at Newton Church and a wake at the Saltwater Inn but the title and plot of the new project are under wraps.
