The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth opens globally in IMAX on November 25, 2026, for an exclusive two-week run, before arriving on Netflix on December 23. Netflix’s official announcement gives both dates. Brad Pitt returns as Cliff Booth, with David Fincher directing a screenplay by Quentin Tarantino.

Interest in the film has a fresh news hook: Pitchfork reported on November 2 that Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross are scoring it. That music report is separate from Netflix’s September 21 release announcement. For readers planning to watch, the central distinction is between the November cinema opening and the later December streaming date.

Two release windows, with a gap between them

Netflix describes the November 25 engagement as an exclusive two-week IMAX run. It also explicitly names December 23 for streaming. Counting two weeks from the cinema opening does not produce the Netflix release date; the announced dates should be used separately when choosing how to see the film.

IMAX’s own film listing agrees on November 25 and gives a running time of 141 minutes, equivalent to two hours and 21 minutes. The global opening date does not establish a particular local screening, ticket price or start time. This guide has not verified US or UK cinema inventory, and Netflix’s announcement does not supply a region-specific streaming hour.

Cliff returns in a story set in 1977

The new story takes place in 1977, eight years after the 1969 setting of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Pitt returns as the stuntman introduced in that film, now working as a Hollywood fixer. The returning character provides continuity, while Fincher directs this new film from Tarantino’s script.

Netflix introduces Elizabeth Debicki as agent Karen Crosby and Scott Caan as television star Charlie Peters. These character and setting details explain the premise before release; they are not a review of the finished film. Pitchfork’s November 2 report supplies the current music-credit news, which is attributed to that publication rather than presented as a new studio statement.

Use the official film pages for the next step

The linked Netflix Tudum page contains the official trailer and a route to the film’s Netflix listing. IMAX’s film page provides the cinema route through its location and screening controls. Readers can use those destinations to look for a local showing or the streaming listing without relying on a search snippet about the number of participating theatres.

For now, the practical choice is an IMAX opening from November 25 or Netflix from December 23, subject to the relevant local listing. The next useful updates will be cinema-specific showtimes and any official change to the announced windows. Neither the music report nor the length of the theatrical engagement changes the published Netflix date.
