It looks like being another left-field casting choice by Quentin Tarantino, following in the grand tradition of Travolta in Pulp Fiction, Forster in Jackie Brown and Carradine in Kill Bill.
Don Johnson, he of Miami Vice fame and Nash Bridges, erm, something, will apparently step in front of the camera as a villainous plantation owner for Tarantino’s western.
We already know that Jamie Foxx, Leo DiCaprio, Christoph Waltz and Kurt Russell are in. Don Johnson brings a different dimension here, especially as a villain, though he has that twinkle in his eye that could make this work out rather nicely. Casting is still ongoing, though we would expect pre-production to give way to principal photography before too long.
