DUBAI: British TV personality Jameela Jamil called out Quentin Tarantino on Friday for casting Emile Hirsch in an upcoming film. “Cool. Emile Hirsch strangled my tiny female best friend until she blacked out at a party in front of dozens of witnesses at the Sundance Film Festival — and was convicted — but Tarantino just cast him in a movie,” she tweeted. In 2015, Hirsch was charged with felony aggravated assault and misdemeanor intoxication for attacking Hollywood executive Daniele Bernfeld. “Hirsch came up from behind Bernfeld and wrapped his arm around her to put her in a chokehold,” the court documents stated. “Hirsch pulled Bernfeld across the table and onto the floor, where he landed on top of her. While Hirsch was on top of Bernfeld he wrapped his hands around her neck.” According to the Associated Press, Hirsch pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault and was sentenced to pay a $4,750 fine, spend 15 days in jail and complete 50 hours of community service.
