Cliff Booth: a new trailer that says a lot about David Fincher’s film
The stuntman played by Brad Pitt is back in action in a film derived from Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, based on a screenplay by Quentin Tarantino. And trouble is never far away.
He’s back in Hollywood!
Netflix has released a new trailer for New Misadventures of Cliff Booth, which finds the character of Brad Pitt, seven years after his debut in Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood.
David Fincher takes control of the production to tell us a story that takes place in 1977, eight years after the events of the first film released in 2019.
The trailer opens with Cliff waking up and quietly preparing for a new day. A voiceover then recalls one of the memorable moments of the first film: “Have you heard the story about Bruce Lee getting his butt kicked by a stuntman? Yes, that’s who we’re talking about!” The tone is set. But the former stuntman’s daily life will quickly become complicated.
Karen Crosby, representative of actor Charlie Peters, comes to ask him to meet her client for an upcoming project. Problem: Charlie performs his own stunts and therefore does not need Cliff’s services. On the other hand, the star found himself embroiled in an affair with Filipino gangsters and needs a helping hand to get out of this mess. A mission which soon leads the two men into a series of adventures, leading to a murder case.
On the program: the glamor of 1970s Hollywood, dubious schemes and new adventures for the character of Brad Pitt, always accompanied by his legendary phlegm. At his side, we will notably find Timothy Olyphant in the role of western actor James Stacy, but also Elizabeth Debicki, or Scott Caan, as well as Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Carla Gugino.
The New Misadventures of Cliff Booth will be released on December 23 on Netflix in France.
