Burt Reynolds has reportedly joined the cast of 'Once Upon A Time in Hollywood'.



The 82-year-old actor has been approached by the movie's director Quentin Tarantino as he's desperate to secure him for the upcoming thriller and have him play real-life ranch owner George Spahn, according to Empire magazine.



Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt have reportedly already signed their contracts for the movie, which follows former Western TV series star Rick Dalton and stunt double Cliff Booth as they try to make their way in the late 1960s Hollywood, while Margot Robbie is said to be close to scribbling on the dotted line to portray Sharon Tate.



The acclaimed filmmaker previously shared some details about the movie.



He said: "It takes place during the 1969 Hollywood era at the height of the counterculture explosion, at the time of the hippie revolution.



"During the summer, little by little, block by block, we'll be transforming Los Angeles into the psychedelic Hollywood of 1969."
