Quentin Tarantino has revealed the movie role he wrote with comedian Adam Sandler in mind.

Tarantino and filmmaker Judd Apatow recently spoke to Bill Maher for his Club Random podcast, with Tarantino talking about his hopes to have Sandler play Sergeant Donny The Bear Jew Donowitz in his 2009 movie Inglourious Basterds, Variety reported .

Tarantino said he wrote the role for Sandler, but filming was set for the same time as Apatows Funny People.

Apatow had secured Sandler for his film a year and a half beforehand, Variety reported .

This, Tarantino said, became an issue.

Heres the problem. [Apatow] wrapped up all the good Jews [for Funny People]. That was the problem, Tarantino said.

He continued: Seth Rogen and all the good Jews were doing Funny People. Im killing Hitler with baseball bats and theres no good Jews available, David Krumholtz , nobody. All the good Jews were all wrapped up, Im doing the Jewish male fantasy.
