It was announced a couple of weeks ago that the debut trailer for Django Unchained, the new Quentin Tarantino flick, would be premiering during screenings of Prometheus this Friday, however The Weinstein Co. decided to post the official trailer online today.
Most of the sources have been pulled until 7:30 EST tonight, however we were able to find one embed that’s still active. Django Unchained hits theaters December 25, hit the jump for the trailer and full synopsis.
Set in the South two years before the Civil War, DJANGO UNCHAINED stars Academy Award®-winner Jamie Foxx as Django, a slave whose brutal history with his former owners lands him face-to-face with German-born bounty hunter Dr. King Schultz (Academy Award®-winner Christoph Waltz). Schultz is on the trail of the murderous Brittle brothers, and only Django can lead him to his bounty. The unorthodox Schultz acquires Django with a promise to free him upon the capture of the Brittles – dead or alive.
Success leads Schultz to free Django, though the two men choose not to go their separate ways. Instead, Schultz seeks out the South’s most wanted criminals with Django by his side. Honing vital hunting skills, Django remains focused on one goal: finding and rescuing Broomhilda (Kerry Washington), the wife he lost to the slave trade long ago.
Absolutely amazing.
