Brad Pitt: His character is connected to The Revenant with Tarantino… We explain!

Did Alejandro Iñárritu quote Quentin Tarantino? The question comes after it was recently suggested that one of the Pulp Fiction director’s characters might be linked to the Birdman director’s film!

It’s no joke, because in Inglourious Basterds (2009), Lt. Aldo Raine, played by Brad Pitt, tells his potential recruits:

Why Tarantino slammed the door on the Marvel movie he wanted to make

I am a direct descendant of Jim Bridger, a mountain man, so I have some Indian blood. And our battle plan comes directly from the Apache resistance. We are not going to play nice with the Germans, it will let them know who we are with our brutality.

In this little speech, Raine quotes his ancestor Jim Bridger. We find the character’s name in another feature film: Alejandro G. Iñárritu’s The Revenant (2015). Will Poulter (Labyrinth, Guardians of the Galaxy 3) plays a certain Jim Bridger in this film, set in 1823, some 120 years earlier.Inglorious bastards. Thus, this makes the possibility of connecting the two symbols credible.

Jim Bridger is a true figure of the American West, a guide and trapper, featured in the westerns Caravan Attack (1931) and Tomahawk (1951). So he and Aldo Raine were linked through the Tarantino and Iñárritu films, and symbolically, Poulter would play Brad Pitt’s character’s papa.

A An unexpected connection But the fun between these films released between 2009 and 2015 is undoubtedly the result of coincidence, but which enriches the legend according to which many characters in the films Tarantino They are actually from the same family. Even now it seems that some are related to feature films… other directors!
