‘The Continuing Adventures of Cliff Booth’ – Brad Pitt’s New Netflix Movie!

by

Occasionally, news about upcoming movies can emerge from unconventional sources. One particularly intriguing development is the announcement of a sequel to Quentin Tarantino’s 2019 film “Once Upon a Time… In Hollywood”. A surprising turn of events has brought director David Fincher on board for this project, and given his first-look deal with Netflix, the movie will be produced by the streaming studio. Although the production process is expected to be complex, it’s still thrilling to know that a Tarantino script is being worked on by another esteemed filmmaker like David Fincher. In an unexpected twist, details about the project have been disclosed through a Deadline Q&A with actor Michael B. Jordan from the movie “Sinners”.

In Deadline’s unique article, the Q&A moderator emphasized the intricate mythology found in Quentin Tarantino’s films and how his deeply layered characters offer opportunities for spinoffs, much like the captivating and well-crafted characters in “Sinners”. As they made this point, they offered a thorough illustration using David Fincher’s potential follow-up to “Once Upon A Time… In Hollywood”. This hypothetical sequel would not only disclose plot points, but also propose a (presumably tentative) title for the movie.

In a fascinating twist, Quentin Tarantino crafts characters and stories so immersive they seem destined for follow-ups he simply couldn’t find time to produce. Originally, he planned to resurrect Brad Pitt’s character from Once Upon A Time…In Hollywood, the stuntman. However, Tarantino opted for a different project in his last film. Now, it appears that David Fincher will helm Pitt in ‘The Continuing Adventures of Cliff Booth,’ a series where the stuntman transitions into a troubleshooter within Hollywood studios, as per what I’ve heard.

David Fincher’s ‘Once Upon a Time in Hollywood‘ Sequel Could Showcase a Different Era of Hollywood

The notion of Cliff Booth serving as a Hollywood troubleshooter in a potential ’70s-themed production is quite captivating, given that his persona experienced some of the most thrilling incidents in Quentin Tarantino’s 2019 film. Be it sparring with Bruce Lee on the set of The Green Hornet or dropping by the Spahn Ranch, inhabited by the Manson family, Brad Pitt’s character has glimpsed both the glamorous and seedy aspects of Tinseltown, which this upcoming installment could delve into further. Additionally, the article’s headline suggests that the movie will primarily concentrate on Cliff, implying that Leo DiCaprio’s character, Rick Dalton, might take a backseat or even be absent from this new production.

As a cinephile, I’ve always been captivated by David Fincher’s movies that delve into the behind-the-scenes world of Hollywood. His latest work, 2020’s “Mank,” takes us on a biographical journey of screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz and his creation of the timeless cinematic masterpiece, “Citizen Kane.” The film offers an intriguing glimpse into the studio system that thrived in the 1930s and 40s, reflecting Fincher’s deep affection for the golden age of moviemaking. Now, he’s poised to revisit this era with “The Continuing Adventures of Cliff Booth.

There’s currently little official information about how closely the upcoming film will relate to “Once Upon a Time… In Hollywood,” or if any actors from the original movie will reprise their roles. However, some sources suggest it may be more disconnected than expected, as it’s believed to be a separate film set in the same era, focusing on a new group of characters revolving around Cliff Booth, with Brad Pitt and David Fincher involved in its creation. Quentin Tarantino has already created a fictional backstory for Rick Dalton, but this may evolve as the film progresses.
