Brad Pitt is ready to kill some Nazis.

The actor has signed on to play the head of the Jewish resistance in Inglorious Bastards, Quentin Tarantino's World War II film, according to the Reporter.

Pitt's character is a Southern rebel who leads eight Jewish American soldiers carrying out vengeance in German-occupied France.

This is the first collaboration between Pitt, 44, and Tarantino, 45, as actor and director.

Those familiar with the script said Pitt's character is a prone to saying things like, "We're gonna be doing one thing, and one thing only, and that's killing Nazis," THR said.

Pitt won't be the only recognizable face in the film - The Office's B.J. Novak is in talks to play one of the soldiers in the troop. - Tim Molloy
