Like many of Quentin Tarantino's projects, his upcoming film, "Django Unchained," is met with rumors and excitement! Here's what we know about the movie, it's going to be a revenge flick with an ex-slave exacting vengeance.

According to our friends at ScreenRant, "Django Unchained" will hit theaters on December 25th, 2012 - just in time to spread holiday cheer.

Rumors are circulating on who will play the lead role. Will Smith, Idris Elba, and Jamie Foxx have all been talked about. But I'm very interested to see Smith in a Tarantino film. I think it'll bring out his edge not seen since 1993's "Six Degrees of Separation."

So far, Leonardo DiCaprio is the only one who may be set to appear in "Django Unchained." He will play the part of a plantation owner who owns Django's wife.

Christoph Waltz, who won a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for the last Tarantino film, "Inglourious Basterds," may return to his Hans Landa's German roots to play a German bounty hunter who helps Django rescue his wife.

Samuel Jackson, a perennial Tarantino favorite, may also star as DiCaprio's right hand man. He will play an older slave who, according to ScreenRant, is an "expert manipulator" who wants to bring Django down.

At first glance, it's kind of boring that Tarantino is making yet another "revenge" film, but on the other hand, the auteur has such unique vision that I will pretty much watch any movie he makes!
