Quentin Tarantino and Kylie Minogue shooting film in Porthcawl

Pair pictured ‘laughing and singing’ at Welsh seaside town’s Saltwater Inn, for post-funeral scene in film by British film-maker Jamie Adams

Quentin Tarantino and Kylie Minogue have been spotted in Welsh seaside town Porthcawl as they film a new movie for prolific British film-maker Jamie Adams.

A report in Nation.Cymru carried a picture of the pair on location at Porthcawl’s Saltwater Inn, where they reportedly “laughed and sang together” for a scene set during a wake. The pair were also reported to have filmed a funeral scene at a church in the nearby village of Newton.

BBC Wales also reported that Tarantino was seen on Friday in the Parkgate Hotel in Cardiff, having a drink with film crew.

According to a report in Variety , the project is a new film by Adams, who cast Tarantino in his previous film Only What We Carry, which premiered on 6 June at the Tribeca film festival in New York. Described as an “improvisational drama shot in six days on the Normandy coast”, Only What We Carry stars Charlotte Gainsbourg as a dancer and Simon Pegg as her former choreographer, with Tarantino appearing in a small role as “a wealthy benefactor”.

In a Variety report in February , Adams said he had sent Tarantino the script for Only What We Carry, then met him over Zoom and persuaded him to appear, saying: “Once you hear his voice, you’re transported. It’s like Disneyland for film-makers.”
