Quentin Tarantino will recreate late-1960s Los Angeles on location in the Californian city when he films his new movie this summer with Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt.

The filmmaker discussed the production - now entitled Once Upon A Time in Hollywood - at CinemaCon in Las Vegas, an industry event that introduces upcoming movie projects to exhibitors.

“I can tell you that Once Upon a Time in Hollywood takes place in 1969, at the height of the counterculture, hippy revolution and the height of new Hollywood," Tarantino told delegates.

“Street by street, block by block, we'll transform Los Angeles into the Hollywood of 1969.”

Last autumn, Tarantino’s movie was awarded tax credit support worth $18m to film in California.

More big-budget films are securing the tax credit support they need to film in the west-coast state. Superhero movie Captain Marvel is currently in production in California and earlier this month the high-profile motor-racing movie Ford v Ferrari was granted filming incentive support of $17m.
