"Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon A Time In Hollywood struck the perfect chord at the perfect time. The 2019 period film capitalized on Old Hollywood nostalgia with a tale of the swingin' '60s and the Manson family just before Hollywood itself shut down and changed forever. There was also Leonardo DiCaprio pointing at the screen and wielding a flamethrower,"
"However, one thing is very evident: the look. This sequel is written by Tarantino but directed by Zodiac 's David Fincher, who has always favored a more neo-noir tone. From the very first shot, Fincher makes the change in creative direction obvious: now, everything is cloaked in shadow, and it's often difficult to tell what's going on even outside of typically dark environments like a movie theater or nightclub."
Cliff Booth, the nonchalant stuntman from Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, is getting a sequel titled The Adventures of Cliff Booth set in the 1970s. Quentin Tarantino wrote the screenplay while David Fincher directs, shifting the aesthetic toward a neo-noir, shadow-cloaked look. Brad Pitt returns as Cliff alongside Elizabeth Debicki, Scott Caan, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Holt McCallany, Carla Gugino, and Timothy Olyphant reprising his role as James Stacy. The teaser offers minimal dialogue but emphasizes mood and visuals, with controversial elements like cigarettes censored in the first-look trailer.
