Quentin Tarantino's ninth directorial "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" will explore the '60s showbiz beyond the murder of Shannon Tate by the Charles Manson cult, say the producers of the film.
In an interview with the Entertainment Weekly, producers David Heyman and Shannon McIntosh said that they want to clear the "misconception" that the film only deals with the famous cult and the murders they committed.
The film features an ensemble cast led by Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio. Actor Margot Robbie is playing Tate, the most famous victim of the cult group.
According to the official plotline, film follows "a story that takes place in Los Angeles in 1969, at the height of hippy Hollywood".
DiCaprio is playing Rick Dalton, former star of a western TV series, while Pitt is his longtime stunt double, Cliff Booth.
"Both are struggling to make it in a Hollywood they don't recognise anymore. But Rick has a very famous next-door neighbour, Sharon Tate."
Heyman said, "It's the three classes of Hollywood. There's the high Hollywood of Sharon, the declining star of Rick, and there's Cliff, who lives farther out and with more humble means."
