Brad Pitt and Quentin Tarantino have a real Cannes-do—or at the very least, Cannes-go—attitude about their new movie.

The box office boys are set to bring their highly-anticipated war epic Inglorious Basterds to the Cannes Film Festival come May. Per Variety, the movie will not only have its world premiere at the Riviera-based fest, but will also screen as part of the competition.

The Weinstein Co. has not commented on the film's selection, and festival organizers will not unveil the event's full lineup on April 23.

Tarantino already has a rich, and successful, history with Cannes, having taken home the Palme d'Or for Pulp Fiction in 1994. Ten years later, he retuned to serve as president of the festival jury.

Cannes, arguably the most glamorous of the world's film festivals, runs May 13-24. The film opens on Aug. 21.
