Quentin Tarantino felt like he was 'letting Brad Pitt down' by not making Cliff Booth movie
Tarantino said Brad Pitt’s disappointment helped bring David Fincher into the project, which is set to continue Cliff Booth’s story for Netflix.
Quentin Tarantino wrote the script for 'The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth' but opted out of directing, confirming the sequel will not be his 10th and final film.
Tarantino admitted to Empire that he 'felt bad' after deciding against directing, saying he was 'really letting down' Brad Pitt, who expressed disappointment about not playing Cliff Booth again.
After Pitt approached him, David Fincher stepped in to direct, having previously helmed 'Seven,' 'Fight Club,' and 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button' with the actor.
The film hits IMAX cinemas Nov. 25, arriving on Netflix December 23, though cinema chains Cinemark and Regal declined to show it due to the short release window.
Set eight years after 'Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood,' the story follows Booth as a Hollywood fixer, while Tarantino also publishes a novelization titled 'The Adventures of Cliff Booth.
