Hey, if any man has the skills to wrestle a living tiger into submission, you can bet your bottom dollar that it’ll be Brad “I once killed an otter” Pitt* (*he may not have killed an otter)

Variety has reported that he and director Darren Aronofsky are planning on working side-by-side on the adaptation of John Vaillant’s book The Tiger, which sees a young gameskeeper hunting a lethal tiger. We’re guessing Pitt will probably be going for the less animal-based role of the gameskeeper, but then you never know.

This is Aronofsky and Pitt’s second attempt to work together, the first was The Fountain – a film that eventually fell through due to production complications. So, is this the flick to bring the two together? We’ll have to wait and see…

About time Pitt hunted some crazy tiger ass? Talk to us…
