25 Quentin Tarantino Characters You Didn't Know Were Related

1. English Pete & Archie Hicox

Relationship: Great Great Grandfather And Great Great Grandson

The latest addition to the shared Tarantino universe family comes in the shape of English Pete Hicox - the alter-ego of supposed hangman Oswaldo Mobray - an outlaw member of Jody Domerge's band of villains. The revelation of his name suggested immediately that he is a distant ancestor of Archie Hicox, the similarly duplicitous Englishman sent to help kill Hitler in Inglourious Basterds.

Eli Roth confirmed the link isn't exactly set in stone (it's impossible to guess the length of generations at the best of time, but nobody has a long lifespan in a Tarantino's universe anyway):

"He is the great-great-great grandfather. I€™m not sure if it€™s great or great-great or great-great-great, but it€™s always the same with , which I loved."
