John Jarratt was the first person I can remember being unofically case in Grind House. Now it turns out that he never made it into the movie at all.

“My wife Cody was excited. We’d got the passport thing sorted out and we were all ready to set off for the States with our two kids, just waiting for a start date, so it was a real kick in the guts when nothing happened,” he told Woman’s Day.
“I’m really bewildered. God knows, Quentin might ring up next week and say he’s ready to start, ‘Get over here’. And might do it but I might not. I kind of wish he’d left me alone and it had never happened.”

Well, maybe Tarantino nixed him from the film because he’s getting interviewed by magazines like Woman’s Day.
