Earlier this morning Netflix released an official trailer for The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth. Starring Brad Pitt and following his character from Once Upon a Time…in Hollywood, Quentin Tarantino provided the script, which David Fincher directed. The streamer will release this one in theaters on November 25th for a two week engagement in IMAX, before it landing on Netflix on December 23rd.
This is the official synopsis from Netflix:
Murder, blackmail, theft, extortion — just another summer in Hollywood. It’s 1977, eight years since Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt) encountered the Manson family in Quentin Tarantino’s parallel history of 1969, Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood. In THE FURTHER MIS-ADVENTURES OF CLIFF BOOTH, directed by David Fincher from a new script by Tarantino, the fairytale is over. Los Angeles no longer needs a hippie-slaying stuntman the way it did. But Hollywood will always have problems, problems that can only be solved by someone with Cliff’s unique (occasionally extralegal) abilities. When he’s not earning his keep bartending or as a projectionist, Cliff Booth is a fixer — solving situations for Hollywood’s great and, sometimes, not so good.
He’s curious when he gets a call from talent agent Karen Crosby (Elizabeth Debicki), on behalf of her client, TV megastar Charlie Peters (Scott Caan) — a man known for doing his own stunts. And he’s further entertained and intrigued when he meets other characters in Charlie’s world, from his knowing wife Toni (Carla Gugino) to pro football champion turned screen star Roderick “Hot Rod” Harrison (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II). Then there are the Verdusco brothers (Matt Groove and JB Tadena), mysterious gangsters causing mayhem across the city. What was once a fairytale is now a crime story — a cocktail of violence, ambition, and desire that could only happen in LA.
Discover whether the further adventures — or mis-adventures — of Cliff Booth end happily ever after on November 25 in IMAX, and on December 23 on Netflix.
Here now is the official trailer for The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth:



I’m still having a hard time accepting that this is a real movie that was actually produced and set for release soon. Like, I’m still half-expecting Quentin Tarantino to pop out at some point and say “Psyche!” and reveal this was all an elaborate prank.
It will oddly feel like a fake movie until I actually see it, despite being very intrigued by this mixture of talent…
