Tarantino: Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

Pitt and DiCaprio are an aging matinee star and his longtime stunt double, adjusting to the changing Hollywood culture.

Though they are cast and written, I doubt the narrative will focus much on Manson or Tate.

More Summer of Sam than Zodiac.

So the idea might be to show the principles just casually running into Manson on the street? That could lead to some interesting dialogue.

Have they cast for Mrs. LaBianca?

Honestly, I don't see how you can write in the murders without turning this into a horror film.

DiCaprio's character is said to live on the same street as Polanski/Tate. His character is also the star of a western tv show or movie, so it might be that the Manson Family who lived on a filming ranch is encountered via the western setting as well. Manson and his crew also mingled in music and film industry circles by way of Dennis Wilson and a few young actors and writers. The murders are said to be a backdrop for the story, not the primary story. I'm not sure if that means we'd see it or not.

LOL ... It's over-the-top creepy just reading that much.
