Has Tarantino filled his now vacant part with a stuntman?

Russell is such an under utilized talent. Amazing guy, and an old school movie star. I sure hope this comes true, now that Costner has elected to wander the open range

Well, this makes me happy. Kevin Costner has always left me a bit cold. Even in his best films he's a bit wooden and blank to me, so his leaving was never a huge upset to me (unless they, like, replaced him with Eli Roth or something...). So the news he is being replaced with one of my favorite actors? Who is always stellar? 

 

Oh yes. Bring it on.

I've been waiting for Kurt to come back. The man kicks ass. It'll be five years since Death Proof when this gets released.

Fan-fucking-tastic!  I was hoping this would happen!  Say what you will about Death Proof as a whole, but Russell was fantastic in it.  I can't wait to see him grace another Tarantino project!

Death Proof was what it was for Kurt Russell alone. The chicks sucked the dialogue was cringe worthy.

 

As someone who isn't that interested in this film Russell's involvement alone almost makes this can't miss.

I also prefer Russell to Costner. The Untouchables is the only movie of his that I'm a fan of. Not that he isn't really good in it, but for me its more about DeNiro and Connery. If JFK is on, I can't stop watching it. I credit that to the direction.

So how many times is it now that Russell nabbed Costner's leftovers?  I know the two went for A LOT of the same roles back in the 90s (if not the late 80s too), with poor Kurt usually only getting the part if Kevin passed or talks broke down.  Just curious.

Kurt Russell was the better Wyatt Earp.

Now I'm just picturing him striding onto QT's set shouting "You called down the thunder?  Well here I am!"

I've liked Costner in a bunch of films but Kurt fits way better into the fun worlds QT likes to create.

I would still love to see Costner in a Tarantino film and I hope that it happens some day.  The two definitely seem willingly to work with one another.  Here's hoping the third time is a charm on down the road...

This news is deeply, deeply awesome. Russell is a global treasure and if anyone deserves a career revival, it's him. By rights, he should've gotten it with Death Proof, though I suspect that the relatively muted reaction to that movie diverted a lot of the attention that should've gone his way.

Costner can be fun. Look at SILVERADO for proof
