With David Fincher currently filming the spin-off to Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, The Continuing Adventures of Cliff Booth, we’re going to get a lot more reveals from the set – and that includes those returning from Quentin Tarantino’s film. There is still much to be revealed, but Timothy Olyphant may have let it slip that he is returning as James Stacy, the real-life actor who appeared in Lancer.

Olyphant recently appeared on Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend, where the topic of the Once Upon a Time in Hollywood spin-off was brought up, to which Olyphant mouthed, “I’m in it,” before asking, “Are they filming this?” He then followed that up with, “I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know!” The group offered to cut that part out, to which Olyphant replied, “I don’t know, let’s see. I’m hoping I’m in it.

Timothy Olyphant accidentally reveals that he might return to star in the David Fincher-directed sequel to Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. With a script penned by Tarantino, Brad Pitt will reprise his role as Cliff Booth in Netflix's new movie, currently in production. Olyphant previously played James Stacy, an actor who starred in the fictional Western TV series Lancer.

Set in the late 1970s, eight years after the events in the original film, Fincher's spinoff will tune into a chapter in Cliff's life when he worked as a fixer in the industry. So far, the confirmed cast includes Scott Caan, Elizabeth Debicki, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Carla Gugino, Holt McCallany, Jb Tadena, and Corey Fogelmanis.

In an interview with Team Coco about Alien: Earth, Olyphant, who stars in the TV series, accidentally revealed that he might be in the scheduled Cliff Booth spinoff. At the mention of the movie,...

Brad Pitt continues filming The Adventures of Cliff Booth on Thursday (July 31) in Los Angeles.

The 61-year-old actor was seen donning a couple of retro looks with 1970s vibes while on set of the upcoming Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood sequel.

In one look, Brad wore a yellow green polo, while rocking his natural hair, mustache and sideburns.

For the second look, he put on his wig and a thicker mustache, with the same yellow, floral button up shirt he was seen wearing earlier in the week.

Not much is known about the upcoming sequel, other than it revolving around Brad‘s character. It was written by the original movies filmmaker Quentin Tarantino, but it will be directed by David Fincher.

Also set to star in the movie are Elizabeth Debicki and Scott Caan, as well as Corey Fogelmanis and Karren Karagulian, who were also spotted on set recently.

With production starting on Netflix’s “The Adventures of Cliff Booth,” fans are eagerly speculating at what to expect from the David Fincher-directed sequel to Quentin Tarantino’s “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.”

Tarantino introduced audiences to Cliff Booth in 2019’s “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood,” where Brad Pitt turned in an Oscar-winning performance for his portrayal of the cool, collected and devilishly charming 1960s Hollywood stunt double. Tarantino later expanded upon the character in his 2021 novelization of the film.

Though it is public knowledge that Tarantino penned the screenplay for the sequel and that Fincher is taking up the directorial reins, details concerning the storyline are still under wraps. Nevertheless, news regarding the film’s cast, crew, development and production offer reason for excitement.

Here’s what we know about “The Adventures of Cliff Booth” so far.

Quentin Tarantino's 2019 movie, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, has a sequel in the works. Dubbed The Adventures of Cliff Booth, the sequel is written by Tarantino, but David Fincher is taking over as director.

Brad Pitt returns as the titular lead in The Adventures of Cliff Booth. The movie has just started filming, and set photos are starting to emerge on social media of Pitt's return as Cliff. In the images, Pitt can be seen sporting a different hairstyle compared to the last time viewers saw him in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. He appears to be in a location that's been made up to look like a movie theater.

David Fincher's Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood spinoff has begun filming as Brad Pitt returns on set as Cliff Booth. With a script penned by Quentin Tarantino, the upcoming feature centers around Rick Dalton's (Leonardo DiCaprio) laid-back stuntman (Pitt) and is rumored to be called The Continuing Adventures of Cliff Booth.

In addition to the Bullet Train actor, the announced cast includes Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Elizabeth Debicki, Scott Caan, and Jb Tadena. While it's unclear whether DiCaprio will return for the spinoff, the movie was scheduled to start filming in the summer in California.

Now, in an Instagram post shared by Just Jared, Pitt can be seen on set in Los Angeles. In the carousel, Pitt wears a patterned bright yellow shirt similar to the one he wore in the 2019 original while holding a lollipop in his mouth. His character also seems to have a mustache and...

Quentin Tarantino has it locked in his mind that he can only direct ten feature films before retiring, so when he wrote a follow-up to his 2019 film Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood and felt that it wasn’t worthy of being his tenth and final movie, he was planning to scrap it. The script centered on Cliff Booth, the stuntman character Brad Pitt won an Oscar for bringing to life, so it’s understandable that Pitt really didn’t want to let go of the project. In a shocking turn of events, he was able to convince Tarantino to let another director bring the story to the screen: David Fincher, who previously directed Pitt in Se7en, Fight Club, and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. The movie, which is believed to be going by the title The Adventures of Cliff Booth, is now in production, and Pitt has been spotted on the set,...

Fresh off his death-defying role in F1, Brad Pitt is back in action on the set of The Continuing Adventures of Cliff Booth, the highly anticipated follow-up to Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood. Tarantino wrote the new script, but David Fincher is in charge of directing the upcoming movie, which features a star-studded cast in addition to Pitt. The new film follows the adventures of Cliff Booth after the titular stuntman becomes a Hollywood studio fixer.

Netflix's The Continuing Adventures of Cliff Booth is now filming, and fans have spotted a candid first look at Pitt as the titular character. It seems the time since the events of Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood has greatly changed his appearance, as he now sports a mustache and an unruly hairstyle. Interestingly enough, Netflix has yet to announce the production, nor confirm the official title of the film.

Brad Pitt is stepping back into the shoes of Cliff Booth, and fans just got their first look at him in The Adventures of Cliff Booth, the highly anticipated sequel to Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Directed by David Fincher and written by Quentin Tarantino, the new movie continues Booth’s story, this time taking place in 1977, eight years after the original film’s events.

David Fincher’s sequel to Once Upon A Time In Hollywood – called The Adventures Of Cliff Booth – has started filming in Los Angeles.

In one of this year’s more surprising filmmaking developments, it was announced in April that David Fincher was about to direct a sequel to Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon A Time In Hollywood. Reportedly called The Adventures Of Cliff Booth, it was originally going to be Tarantino’s tenth (and possibly final) movie, before he shoved the script in a drawer and moved on to other things.

Brad Pitt – who played stuntman Cliff Booth in 2019’s Once Upon A Time – managed to rescue the situation, however, and set it up as a project for he and Fincher to make at Netflix. It’s been reported that the streaming company paid $20m for Tarantino’s script.

The 61-year-old actor was spotted back as Cliff Booth, his Oscar-winning role, on the set of the upcoming movie The Adventures of Cliff Booth on Monday (July 28) in Los Angeles.

Brad rocked a blue t-shirt and matching pants along with some aviator sunglasses while filming scenes at the Beverly Cinema. A poster for Richard Pryor‘s 1977 movie Which Way Is Up? was seen in the doorway, seemingly implying that the upcoming sequel takes place eight years after the action in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

Also spotted on set were Corey Fogelmanis, whose casting was announced that morning by Deadline, and Anora actor Karren Karagulian, whose casting hasn’t been revealed yet.

Brad Pitt leads the ensemble, reprising his role as Cliff Booth, who in this film transitions from stuntman to Hollywood fixer. As previously announced, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Elizabeth Debicki, Scott Caan, Carla Gugino and Jb Tadena will also star. Fincher directs from from a script by Tarantino.

Fogelmanis will next be seen leading I Wish You All the Best, a coming-of-age drama marking the directorial debut of Tommy Dorfman, on which we were first to report. Starring alongside Lena Dunham, Alexandra Daddario and Cole Sprouse, the actor plays Ben, a reserved, non-binary teen...

Elizabeth Debicki, with her statuesque frame and ethereal blonde hair, has set the DC Universe fandom’s imagination ablaze with rumors that she might swap her signature locks for a darker shade to embody Wonder Woman. Fans, stirred by a cheeky post from Everything_DCU on X, are practically singing her praises as the next Diana Prince, especially after DC Studios hinted they’re hunting for someone with a “television-skewing resume” like Supergirl’s Milly Alcock.

One fan went so far as to say that a picture of Debicki sporting dark hair should be the litmus test to convince skeptics and strengthen her candidacy. After all, Debicki’s towering 6’3” stature and two Golden Globes for portraying Princess Diana only add fuel to this hopeful fire.

Let’s read a few fans’ comments:

Brad Pitt has finally confirmed the next chapter of Cliff Booth’s story — and it’s coming to Netflix, but without Quentin Tarantino in the director’s chair. In a recent interview with Deadline at the premiere for his latest movie, F1, the 61-year-old actor opened up about the highly anticipated follow-up to Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, revealing that the upcoming film The Adventures of Cliff Booth will shoot this July with David Fincher stepping in as director. While fans may be surprised that Tarantino won’t be helming the project himself, Pitt was quick to explain the decision.

“This is something Quentin Tarantino wrote. It’s an episode, not really a sequel, of the character from Once Upon a Time. He didn’t want to direct it at this point, so our friend David Fincher stepped in. We’re gonna start in July, it’s gonna be really fun.

Pitt is reprising his role as Cliff Booth in the upcoming spinoff project, currently in development at Netflix. Directed by David Fincher and with a script from Quentin Tarantino, the new project has been described as a continuation of Cliff's story after the original film.

While promoting his new movie, F1, Pitt shared some new details with Deadline about the spinoff, reportedly titled The Adventures of Cliff Booth. He clarified that Tarantino wrote "an episode" about his character, but "didn't want to direct it," and hence, the project is not a sequel, but a spinoff.

Although he's currently gearing up for his high-octane F1 to race into theaters this week, Brad Pitt's mind was recently on one of his most iconic films that will soon be celebrating its 30th anniversary — Se7en. The bleak 1995 crime thriller from David Fincher helped cement Pitt as Hollywood royalty, pairing him up with Morgan Freeman as the short-tempered detective David Mills, who was tasked with tracking down the twisted serial killer John Doe (Kevin Spacey). Before Fincher came calling, though, the star was feeling listless in his career despite finding success. He opened up about the Oscar-nominated mystery film in the most recent episode of Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard, sharing how it helped motivate him in what he deemed the "weirdest summer" in 1994.

In today’s world, where streaming platforms dominate, a bad Rotten Tomatoes score can make or break a show. But what happens when critics and audiences completely disagree on a project? The latest example of this growing divide is Tires, a Netflix comedy featuring Shane Gillis. While critics have completely sidelined it, fans can’t seem to stop watching.

What’s also interesting is that this same critic–audience gap hurt high-profile series like The Crown Season 6 and The Crowded Room as well. Let’s break down how Tires has exposed a deeper problem in TV reviews – and why it matters now more than ever.

The Crown S6 and The Crowded Room Faced the Same Rotten Tomatoes Problem as Tires

When The Crown returned for its sixth and final season, fans were absolutely thrilled. After all, this series had dominated the awards season with its strong storytelling and great ensemble.

Quentin Tarantino is lucky that he’s a creative genius because his mouth gets him in trouble on the regular. Tarantino is prone to blurting out controversial hot takes, some for which he has to walk back and apologize. Case in point: When he sat for a T Magazine interview (with Bret Easton Ellis conducting), the Pulp Fiction director slammed Selma. Tarantino quipped that the Oscar-winning film “deserved an Emmy.”

Tarantino later offered a half-apology. He elaborated that he hadn’t actually seen the film but thought it looked like a T.V. movie. In that very same interview with T Magazine, Tarantino also bashed Guy Ritchie’s, The Man from U.N.C.L.E. Tarantino started out sharing what he liked about the former Mr. Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone’s film and quickly pivoted to what didn’t work for him.

His hot take goes like this: “The...

Fans of the psychological crime drama Mindhunter may have reason to stay hopeful. Holt McCallany, known for his role as FBI agent Bill Tench, recently revealed exciting details about a possible return of the beloved series.

In a conversation with ComicBookResources, McCallany shared that he met with director and producer David Fincher to discuss the show’s future.

McCallany suggested that Mindhunter might not return as a traditional season but could take the form of three feature-length episodes, each two hours long. He emphasized that no firm decisions have been made, but writers are actively developing ideas.

“David has to be happy with scripts,” McCallany said, noting Fincher’s meticulous approach to projects. “He said to me that there is a chance that it may come back as three two-hour movies, but I think it’s just a chance.”

The actor also highlighted logistical challenges. Coordinating schedules could be tricky,...

It looks like there might still be hope for fans of Mindhunter. After years of silence, one of the stars of the show, Holt McCallany, has brought some new energy into the idea of a return. McCallany, who plays Bill Tench in the series, recently shared that he had a meeting with the show’s director and producer, David Fincher.

According to McCallany, there’s a chance Mindhunter could come back, not as a full season, but maybe as three two-hour movies.

In an interview with ComicBookResources, McCallany opened up about what was said during that meeting. He didn’t make any promises, but he did say that there are writers currently working on ideas. He made it clear that Fincher is very careful about what he chooses to work on, and he has to be fully happy with the material before moving forward.

Imagine watching Cloverfield and 10 Cloverfield Lane, thinking, “Wow, what an interesting anthology of terrifying, mysterious scenarios wrapped in a neat little multiverse mystery box.” Now imagine getting The Cloverfield Paradox, a film that feels like that mystery box was dropped, kicked into space, and exploded in a microwave filled with bad ideas. Welcome to the most baffling entry in a once-promising franchise: The Cloverfield Paradox—a movie so surprising it was announced, advertised, and released within the span of a single Super Bowl night in 2018. And not because it was too good to wait, but more like they didn’t want you thinking too hard about it before you watched. This is the messy, overcooked lasagna of the Cloverfield universe. Today, on Horror Revisited, we’re diving headfirst into its confusing creation, Netflix dumping, dimensional weirdness, and why even talented actors can’t save a script that plays like it...

The State of the Race

This year, the Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series race is the most brutal acting category. “The White Lotus” Season 3 alone could fill all eight nomination slots, and there is an argument to be made that it’s deserved. Star Natasha Rothwell reprised the role she had already been nominated for after the first season, so voters...

Tyler Perry’s Straw (2025) is a raw and emotionally charged Netflix thriller that dives headfirst into the devastating spiral of poverty, systemic neglect, and racial injustice in America. At its center is Taraji P. Henson’s soul-baring performance as Janiyah, a single Black mother desperately trying to survive one of the worst days of her life. As her world collapses piece by piece—losing her job, her car, her daughter, and even her sense of self—Janiyah finds herself entangled in an accidental bank standoff. With a powerful supporting cast including Sherri Shepherd, Teyana Taylor, and Ashley Versher, and Perry’s signature blend of melodrama and social critique, Straw is a heartbreaking but timely story of how quickly the system can fail those it is meant to protect.

If you found yourself moved by Janiyah’s harrowing journey and are looking for movies like Straw that also explore desperate individuals confronting injustice,...

When Once Upon a Time in Hollywood dropped back in 2019, it wasn’t just a movie, it was a full-on vibe. Quentin Tarantino gave us a retro ride through 1969 Los Angeles, packed with neon signs, spaghetti westerns, and one very wild rewrite of Hollywood history. The cast was absolutely stacked.

With an all-star cast led by Leonardo DiCaprio as fading TV actor Rick Dalton and Brad Pitt as his loyal stuntman Cliff Booth, the movie delivered career-best performances and oozed style from every frame. Let’s not forget Margot Robbie channeling the sweet, ethereal spirit of Sharon Tate, or the killer soundtrack that practically had a personality of its own.

Fast forward to now, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is getting a sequel. Yes, seriously. But this time, it’s David Fincher in the director’s chair, and the spotlight’s shifting to Cliff Booth. As production gears up for a 2025 start,...
