- Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross scored The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth, directed by David Fincher and written by Quentin Tarantino, confirming earlier rumors.
- David Fincher directed the film, marking the duo’s seventh collaboration with him after The Social Network, Gone Girl, and Mank, the latter of which won them an Academy Award.
- Quentin Tarantino wrote the film and will release a novelization of it on December 8, following his 2021 novel Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: A Novel.
- Brad Pitt reprises his role as Cliff Booth, with the story set in 1977—eight years after the events of Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood—and features Elizabeth Debicki, Scott Caan, Timothy Olyphant, and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II.
- The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth opens in theaters on November 25 and streams on Netflix starting December 23, continuing the franchise’s blend of alternate history and Hollywood mythos.
Why it matters: Reznor and Ross’s involvement solidifies the film’s artistic pedigree, linking Fincher’s precision with Tarantino’s revisionist storytelling. The November 25 release date creates a tight window before its Netflix debut, potentially amplifying box office urgency while maximizing streaming momentum just before Christmas.
