Rumors

There have been rumors of Quentin Tarantino making a ‘Vega Brothers’ movie for years now. The movie is supposed to reunite Vic & Vincent Vega (Michael Madsen from Reservoir Dogs and John Travolta from Pulp Fiction) in a prequel of some sort. Today, Dark Horizons posted the following snippit:

The Vega Brothers: Long ago it was thought the two brother characters who appeared in separate Tarantino flicks would come together in one movie – now could it be finally going ahead? ‘Tim’ has the details: “I auditioned for a role and got chatting with the lovely casting director who indicated the “vega brothers” movie is going ahead. She says it will be huge because its a huge ensemble, and says it’s going to have Travolta in it, Madsen, Samuel L. Jackson and all the Tarantino regulars – but a lot of roles available for young women, because it’s set in bars and nightclubs, hence, strippers, barmaids, waitress roles will be available. Tarantino wants to do it later this year. I would so love to be a part of this but she said nearly every male role is a ‘name’”.

The second to last sentence in that snippit seems unlikely, as Tarantino has talked quite a bit about beginning work on Inglorious Bastards (a war film) once Kill Bill has wrapped up. As a ‘response’ to the Dark Horizons rumor, Sebastian from the QT Archives then posted an explanation of why ‘Vega Brothers’ is a rumor and nothing more.
