Machete: Weirdest cast ever assembled

[SavageOrangeJug]

Robert De Niro, Jessica Alba, Steven Seagal, Michelle Rodriguez, Don Johnson, Lindsay Lohan, Danny Trejo, Jeff Fahey and Cheech Marin

It started as a joke, but one of the fake trailers from 2008's "Grindhouse" is becoming a real movie. Robert Rodriguez, the director of "Desperado," "Sin City" and the "Spy Kids" trilogy, has begun work on "Machete," which began as a preview that ran before his "Planet Terror" segment of the double-feature he made with Quentin Tarantino.

For the full-length movie, Rodriguez has assembled one of the most eclectic casts ever: Robert De Niro, Jessica Alba, Steven Seagal, Michelle Rodriguez, Don Johnson and Lindsay Lohan. They will join the stars of the original trailer: Danny Trejo, Jeff Fahey and Cheech Marin.

The Big Surprise - 'Machete': Weirdest Cast Ever?

The trailer looked good with just Cheech and Danny Trejo and now you add Jessica Alba and Robert Deniro?

Looks like a classic.

Had been looking forward to this for a while so I went to watch today. I didn't care for it.

Had been looking forward to this for a while so I went to watch today. I didn't care for it.

The buzz I keep hearing is the movie is kind of racist against white people. This true or is it just a bunch of bull?

i'm guessing it's not as good as planet terror or deathproof? i can watch those all day. been waiting for machete for a long time, just havent had a chance to go see it, but if it sucks i might just wait until dvd.
