“You think you’re real funny, huh?” “I’m a little funny…” Surprise! Netflix debuted a 60-second TV trailer at the Super Bowl for the new David Fincher spin-off movie The Adventures of Cliff Booth – which just finished filming a couple of months ago. This is an impressive first look! Featuring a grainy throwback vibe, with scratched out censoring right in the footage. The story takes place about 8 years after the original 1969-set film Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood directed by Quentin Tarantino, focusing on an older Cliff navigating a darker, seedy side of the industry as a “fixer” for Hollywood studios who helps make problems disappear. Brad Pitt reprises his role as the chill stuntman from OUATIH, with a screenplay by Tarantino but this is instead directed by the one-and-only David Fincher. Now doing his 3rd Netflix movie in a row. An intriguing hand-off – though so far this looks like it is going to be totally badass and worth the wait to see what Fincher & Pitt are cooking up. The ensemble cast also includes Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Elizabeth Debicki, Carla Gugino, Timothy Olyphant, Holt McCallany, Lauren Glazier, Peter Weller, and Scott Caan.

I just hope they put this out in theaters first – seems like it’ll be a full-on, big screen joyride. // Continue Reading ›
