After a Super Bowl teaser that never came out and some other hints here and there, Netflix finally put out the official trailer for "The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth" on Monday.
The movie is directed by David Fincher and written by Quentin Tarantino.
It's not just a follow-up to the story Tarantino started in his Oscar-winning film "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood." It's also the first Netflix movie to be shown in Imax theaters worldwide.
The film is set in 1977, eight years after the events of "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood." Now, Booth isn't working as a stuntman anymore.
Instead, he's helping powerful people solve problems.
According to the official description, Booth gets a call from talent agent Karen Crosby (played by Elizabeth Debicki) about her client, TV star Charlie Peters (Scott Caan), who does his own stunts.
Booth is drawn in more when he meets other people in Charlie's world, like his wife Toni (Carla Gugino), football star turned actor Roderick "Hot Rod" Harrison (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II), and the mysterious Verdusco brothers (Matt Groove and JB Tadena), who are causing trouble in the city.What was once a fantasy becomes a crime story, mixing violence, ambition, and desire — something only happens in LA.
"The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth" will be shown only in Imax theaters on November 25, then it will come to Netflix on December 23, playing in Imax for two weeks.
Originally, Greta Gerwig's "Narnia: The Magician's Nephew" was planned for that special Imax release, but Netflix moved it to February for a full wide theater release.
Instead, they chose to show Fincher and Tarantino's first team-up, which fans from around the world are excited about.
The story of "The Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth" began as Tarantino's 10th and last film.
But after writing the script, he decided he didn't want it to be just another version of something he had done before, so he put it away.With Tarantino's permission, Brad Pitt asked him if he could show the script to Fincher — Tarantino's favorite director — to see if he would be interested.That's how the project got going.
Fincher works with his regular cinematographer Erik Messerschmidt, who won an Oscar for shooting "Mank" and also filmed Fincher's "Mindhunter" and his last film, "The Killer."
The film also has Peter Weller, Corey Fogelmanis, and Karren Karagulian, and is produced by Brad Pitt and Ceán Chaffin.
