Netflix has released a second trailer for The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth, and Brad Pitt is back in the role that won him an Oscar — this time as a Hollywood fixer in 1977.
The film is directed by David Fincher from a screenplay by Quentin Tarantino, a sequel to Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood (2019). It is set in 1977, eight years after the original, and Cliff is no longer working with Rick Dalton — the trailer jokes that Dalton “got too fat” for the job.
The new trailer reveals more of the plot. Cliff is hired by an agent, played by Elizabeth Debicki, to look after actor Charlie Peters, played by Scott Caan, who has become tangled up with Filipino gangsters. The cast also includes Carla Gugino and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II.
The trailer also revisits the most talked-about scene from the first film — the fight with Bruce Lee. Other characters keep calling Cliff “the guy who beat Bruce Lee”, while Cliff himself plays it down as an exaggeration. It is a knowing wink to audiences who argued about that scene for years.
The film will have an exclusive two-week IMAX run from 25 November 2026, before arriving on Netflix on 23 December 2026. IMAX tickets are already on sale, and Netflix will reportedly report the IMAX grosses — a rare move for the streamer.
Cliff Booth is one of Pitt’s most loved characters, and Fincher directing a Tarantino script is the kind of pairing that rarely happens. The second trailer suggests a film that is funny, violent and steeped in 1970s Hollywood — and fans will not have long to wait.
It has been a big week for trailers, from the Cameron Diaz comedy Bad Day arriving on Netflix in December to Arnold Schwarzenegger playing Santa in The Man with the Bag. Cliff Booth hits IMAX on 25 November.
