The conversation went a little something like this:

QT: So, Tippi, would you like to be one of my numerous and inglorious bastards?
TB: I could probably be inglorious, but I'm not sure about the bastard part.
QT: Yeah, yeah, that's a problem. Do you think you could be Jewish?
TB: Well, once while sharing a cab in New York, two little old ladies thought I was.
QT: Good! Yeah, that's authentic!
TB: But then the next person I shared a cab with thought I was a mongoose named Chip, so perceptions varied widely. Still want me in the movie?
QT: Uhh, I'll have to get back to you. I think I'm gonna go see if Mike Myers wants to be in the movie instead.

But back to reality now. According to the articles, Kruger will be playing German actress Bridget Von Hammersmark, a role that had been linked to Nastassja Kinski, while Schweiger joins the cast as one of Brad Pitt's Nazi hunters. [I'm betting Rust is one, too. - Zach] Waltz will be playing the film's main bad guy, Col. Hans Landa. Production begins next month -- without Simon Pegg, sadly -- which is still plenty of time to fill a few more bastardly roles.
