Filmmaker
Quentin Tarantino said among the young actors in
Hollywood
today, he has hedged his bets on actor
Chris Pine. The Oscar-nominated director said Pine became a 'movie star' for him after he starred in the film '
Unstoppable
'.
Directed by
Tony Scott, the 2010 thriller about a runaway freight train, also stars Denzel Washington.
"I think one of the things that's exciting about the movie is I am a huge Chris Pine fan. Now, to me, of the actors of his age, he's hands down my favourite of that group, of that era, of those guys.
"I think a case can be made that Pine hasn't taken the next big leap from 'Unstoppable'. Frankly, to tell you the truth, he's been good in other movies (but) he hasn't had that," Tarantino said in an appearance.
