Diane Kruger said she 'fought' for Inglourious Basterds role
Inglourious Basterds star Diane Kruger said she "fought" for her part in Quentin Tarantino's new movie.
The 33-year-old said: "I fought for the part. I knocked down doors. I wasn't meant to be in this movie at all - Quentin had someone else in mind, and for whatever reason that didn't work out, and then I finally got to audition and that was it."
Kruger said that she was overjoyed when she finally got the part in the movie. She told Britain's OK! magazine: "It was wonderful. Quentin is famous for only hiring people who he believes are one hundred per cent right for the part.
"He doesn't care who you are or what you have done before - he totally resurrected Bruce Willis's career and John Travolta's career. So just being hired by him is the greatest compliment anyone can pay you."
