Stephen Basil-Jones, EVP of Sony Pictures
Australia says, “Quentin loves Australia and we’re so pleased he’s making the
trip, especially as he’ll be heading our way in the middle of the U.S. Awards
season where Django is featuring heavily. The film is extraordinary and we’re
honoured to have him present it in Sydney.”
Written and directed by Quentin
Tarantino, Django Unchained is set in the South two years before
the Civil War. Academy Award®-winner Jamie Foxx as Django, a slave whose brutal
history with his former owners lands him face-to-face with German-born bounty
hunter Dr. King Schultz (Academy Award®-winner Christoph Waltz). Schultz
is on the trail of the murderous Brittle brothers, and only Django can lead him
to his bounty. The unorthodox Schultz acquires Django with a promise to
free him upon the capture of the Brittles – dead or alive.
With an all star cast including Jamie Foxx, Christoph Waltz, Leonard DiCaprio, Kerry Washington, Samuel L. Jackson, John Jarratt, Don Johnson, Walton Goggins and Jonah Hill, Django Unchained will release in Australian cinemas on January 24, 2013.
