Brad Pitt is stepping back into the laid-back, leather-jacket-wearing shoes of Cliff Booth. Netflix has officially revealed the title for its highly anticipated follow-up project centered on the Oscar-winning character from *Once Upon a Time in Hollywood*: *The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth*. The project unites a powerhouse trio of modern cinema royalty. Quentin Tarantino, who introduced the enigmatic stuntman in his 2019 retro blockbuster, wrote the screenplay for this new chapter. Taking over directorial duties is David Fincher, marking a massive reunion between Fincher and Pitt, who previously teamed up for iconic hits like *Seven*, *Fight Club*, and *The Curious Case of Benjamin Button*.
When does The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth come out Moviegoers looking to experience the stuntman's next chapter on a giant screen will get their chance late this fall. According to Netflix, *The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth* will debut in IMAX theaters on November 25 for an exclusive two-week theatrical run. After completing its two-week engagement in IMAX, the film will move directly to Netflix for its global streaming premiere. The platform has not yet shared whether other members from the original 2019 ensemble—such as Leonardo DiCaprio or Margot Robbie—will make cameo appearances, but Pitt carrying his own solo story is already sending movie buffs into a frenzy.

Is Quentin Tarantino directing the Cliff Booth spin off While Tarantino penned the script and created the character, he passed the director's chair to Fincher. Tarantino has long insisted that his tenth feature film will be his last as a director, making this writing-only gig an intriguing move that keeps him connected to his favorite characters without counting against his official directorial filmography. For Fincher, the movie continues a lucrative working relationship with Netflix, where he previously helmed *Mank* and *The Killer*. Meanwhile, Pitt's original portrayal of Booth earned him the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor in 2020. Giving the cool-headed, pit-bull-loving stunt double his own feature film under Fincher's precise direction promises to be one of the biggest pop-culture movie events of the year.
