The film Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood was a major hit in 2019, praised for its nostalgic portrayal of 1960s Hollywood. Now, a sequel titled The New Misadventures of Cliff Booth is set to return to the screen, directed by David Fincher and co-directed by Quentin Tarantino. This film will be available exclusively on Netflix, marking a new phase for the franchise. Netflix wrapped up its 2025 programming with the final episodes of Stranger Things Season 5, which had a huge global following. For 2026, the streaming service has chosen to focus on this new film, whose first trailer was recently released. Cliff Booth is a character from Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood, played by Brad Pitt. The film, released in 2019, was the second biggest box office success of Quentin Tarantino’s career, following Django Unchained. The sequel will follow Cliff Booth, who is now dealing with the challenges of managing a major Hollywood studio in the late 1970s. The story will take him into a dangerous world of crime and betrayal, testing his beliefs about loyalty and survival. The film will feature a strong supporting cast, including Elizabeth Debicki, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Carla Gugino, Timothy Olyphant, Scott Caan, Holt McCallany, Peter Weller, Emily Alyn Lind, and Karren Karagulian. While Leonardo DiCaprio, who played Rick Dalton in the original film, will not be part of this project, his absence will be explained in the story. Quentin Tarantino is still involved as the writer, though he is not directing this time. The New Misadventures of Cliff Booth will have a limited theatrical release in select IMAX cinemas starting on November 25, 2026, before becoming available globally on Netflix on December 23, 2026. This marks the first time the film’s story will be accessible to a worldwide audience through the streaming platform.
