Brand New Pics From 'Django Unchained' Released

Posted byBy R Scott Belzer | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

 

New pictures have been released of, well, just about everyone in Quentin Tarantino‘s upcoming southwestern Django Unchained.

Perhaps special attention should be paid to the new looks at Walton Goggins and Don Johnson. Goggins plays Billy Crash, one of Calvin Candie’s slave wranglers, whereas Johnson plays a slave owner named Spencer “Big Daddy” Barnett, the character responsible for employing the men who sold Django and Broomhilda into slavery. Other pictures once again showcase Jamie Foxx, Kerry Washington and Christoph Waltz in full regalia.

Quentin Tarantino has also revealed that Django Unchained might be  part of a trilogy, with Inglourious Basterds being another third. However, it’s important to note how Tarantino loves to lure his fans into obsessing (mostly because Tarantino’s a film geek himself). The director and his publicity team have not been shy in releasing trailer after trailer for Django Unchained, and Tarantino’s gift of gab may just be keeping up the momentum. After all, this is the same director that promised a Kill Bill vol. 3.

While you’re waiting for Django Unchained and its release on Christmas Day, be sure to check out the beautiful pics below. They really do speak for themselves. And wonders for the costume department.

Don Johnson is perhaps best known for ‘Miami Vice’.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
