The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth Courtesy of Netflix The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth is set in 1977, eight years after the events of the first film, and centers on Booth coming to terms with a very different Hollywood. Pitt and Ceán Chaffin serve as producers for the new movie.
“Let’s just say I know what it’s like to kill someone with a knife,” Pitt says in the trailer that was released online last month.
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood was a major success, collecting $377 million at the worldwide box office and earning two Oscars from 10 nominations, including Pitt’s first-ever acting win. It remains well-regarded and helped fuel the film careers for such supporting players as Mikey Madison, Austin Butler, Sydney Sweeney and Margaret Qualley.

“I love this script, but I’m still walking down the same ground I’ve already walked,” he said last year on the Church of Tarantino podcast. “It just kind of unenthused me.”
