The Hollywood star, who has previously worked with Tarantino on Inglourious Basterds, plays stuntman Cliff Booth, a pal of an ageing TV actor - played by Leonardo DiCaprio in the film.
The film reunites Leonardo with his Wolf Of Wall Street co-star Margot Robbie.
She plays actress Sharon Tate, who was married to film director Roman Polanski and became one of the Manson murder victims when she was killed in her own home in 1969.
Quentin Tarantino has said about the film: "I’ve been working on this script for five years, as well as living in Los Angeles County most of my life, including in 1969, when I was seven-years-old.

“I’m very excited to tell this story of an LA and a Hollywood that don’t exist anymore. And I couldn’t be happier about the dynamic teaming of DiCaprio and Pitt as Rick & Cliff."
The film's all-star cast also includes Damian Lewis as actor Steve McQueen, Girls star Lena Dunham and Dakota Fanning as members of the infamous Manson family.
It is currently due for release next July 26 2019, just before the 50th anniversary of the Manson murders.
