Sharon Tate was married to director Roman Polanski but was murdered by Charles Manson and members of the Manson family in 1969 when she was eight-and-a-half months pregnant with her first child.

The film also stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt who respectively play a “former star of a western TV series, and his longtime stunt double,” Deadline quoted Quentin as saying.

“Both are struggling to make it in a Hollywood they don’t recognise anymore. But [DiCaprio’s character] Rick has a very famous next-door neighbour…Sharon Tate.”

The film is scheduled for release on August 9, 2019, in line with the 50th anniversary of Tate’s murder.
