Quentin Tarantino‘s upcoming World War II flick “
Inglorious Bastards“. They'll co-star along side

Samm Levine.
Diane Kruger (“Troy”, “National Treasure”) will handle the role of German actress Bridget Von Hammersmark. Her character will figure into the plot to kill the Nazis. Actress Nastassja Kinski was first rumored to be up for the role.
The flick is set during World War II where a band of U.S. soldiers, who are facing death by firing squad for their misdeeds, are given a chance to redeem themselves by heading into the perilous no-man's lands of Nazi-occupied France on a suicide mission for the Allies.
Variety reports the film is set to begin production on Oct. 13 with shooting taking place in Germany.
