Summary
- Brad Pitt returns as Cliff Booth in David Fincher's new film
- The sequel picks up 8 years after the events of the first movie
- Netflix plans a wide theatrical release for the $200 million project
In 2025, Brad Pitt is set to return to the big screen as Cliff Booth in the highly anticipated sequel to Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Titled The Adventures of Cliff Booth, the new film is being directed by acclaimed filmmaker David Fincher and will pick up the story eight years after the events of the first movie.
According to the latest reports, Netflix is planning a wide theatrical release for the $200 million project in the summer of 2026, aiming to avoid a clash with Greta Gerwig's The Chronicles of Narnia, which is scheduled for November. This move is part of Netflix's ongoing efforts to strengthen its presence in theaters, following years of tension with major chains like AMC.
The sequel brings together an impressive cast alongside Pitt, including Timothy Olyphant, Elizabeth Debicki, Carla Gugino, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, J.E. Burton, and Scott Caan. While the plot details remain under wraps, the film is expected to explore a darker, more complex chapter in Cliff's life beyond the fading glamour of 1960s Los Angeles.
