New Trailer Drops for Once Upon A Time In Hollywood

This is the first full official trailer for Quentin Tarantino’s “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood”. It has the wild west movie sets #LeonardDiCaprio and #BradPitt’s characters frequent, to the groovy backdrop of a Hollywood pool party, and since the movie poster left a lot to be desired, this trailer is giving fans of the highly anticipated film, a bit more to absorb. Set in 1969, film actress Sharon Tate and her friends were murdered in her home on Cielo Drive in the Hollywood Hills by the Manson followers. Tarantino’s film is a reimagining of that summer of terror, which had many in Hollywood and throughout Los Angeles scared out of their wits. However, the film is focused more on Tate’s fictional neighbor Rick Dalton (played by DiCaprio). Once Upon a Time in Hollywood’s first trailer doesn’t reveal too much about the plot of the film, or its abundance of characters other than those played by DiCaprio as Rick Dalton, Pitt as Cliff Booth, and #MargotRobbie as Sharon Tate, but the clip does introduce #MikeMoh as the martial artist turned movie star #BruceLee, who squares off against Pitt’s stunt double character. It also features a meme-able moment of DiCaprio’s character attempting to do the twist on a Hullabaloo-esque variety show that ran for two seasons in the mid-1960s.

Leonardo DiCaprio Tweets — “Experience a version of 1969 that could only happen #OnceUponATimeInHollywood — the 9th film from Quentin Tarantino,”. So this could be indicative that Tarantino is inventing HIS version of what happened to Tate that year through the eyes of his characters. I mean afterall, this is the same person who altered history in “Inglorious Bastards” where Hitler was murdered way before he had a chance to destroy Germany and murder millions. So anything is possible coming from the mind of #QuentinTarantino. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood will hit theaters in July.
