Christoph Waltz as Standartenführer Hans Landa aka The Jew Hunter.Landa is the central antagonist: a romantic, yet sinister pipe-smoking Austro-German SS-turned-SD officer so nicknamed in reference to his keen ability to locate Jews hiding throughout France.
He is well-versed in languages, being able to speak fluent English, French and Italian in addition to his native German. Landa can also be a charming detective.
Tarantino has said that this might be the greatest character he's ever written. The director decided to have the character played by a German actor. The role ultimately went to the Austrian Waltz, who, according to Tarantino, gave me my movie back, as he felt the movie couldn't be made without Landa as a character but feared the part was unplayable.
Waltz would win the Best Actor Award at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival for his performance.
