Looks like Quentin Tarantino ‘s reaching into his own well to fill the shoes of his Django Unchained baddie. The Wrap reports that none other than Kurt Russell , who played Tarantino’s Death Proof villain Stuntman Mike, is negotiating to replace Kevin Costner as Ace Woody, a plantation henchman who works for Leonardo DiCaprio’s big bad. Battling against Kurt ‘n’ Leo will be Jamie Foxx as the titular slave-turned-bounty hunter and his German mentor Christoph Waltz (who recently injured himself training on horseback for the role). This Django ‘s turning into quite the QT party! [ The Wrap ]
