‘The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth’ Trailer: Brad Pitt’s Tarantino Stuntman Returns in 1977 Hollywood for Fincher’s Sequel
A trailer has been released for "The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth," a new film featuring Brad Pitt reprising his role as Cliff Booth, the stuntman from Quentin Tarantino's 2019 film "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood." The upcoming movie is set in 1977 Hollywood and is directed by David Fincher, working from a script penned by Tarantino. This project marks a reunion of sorts, as Fincher previously directed Pitt in "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" and "Se7en."
The original "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" explored the intertwined stories of a fading television actor and his longtime stunt double in Los Angeles during the final moments of Hollywood's golden age. The film garnered critical acclaim and commercial success, earning multiple Academy Awards, including a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for Pitt's portrayal of Booth. The announcement of a follow-up, particularly one helmed by Fincher and focusing on Booth's character, suggests a continuation of the narrative or a new chapter within the same universe established by Tarantino.
