Netflix’s new Cliff Booth movie starring Brad Pitt will get a big screen treatment after all as the streamer has announced that the film will bow in Imax theaters on November 25 for two weeks before making its way to Netflix on Dec. 23, 2026. The film is directed by David Fincher from a script by Quentin Tarantino.
The film takes the spot of the new Narnia pic, Narnia: The Magician’s Nephew, from Greta Gerwig, which recently moved from Thanksgiving to February 2027.
Pitt returns to his Academy Award-winning role as Cliff Booth, only this time it’s 1977 and it’s a very different Hollywood. The film also stars Elizabeth Debicki, Scott Caan, Carla Gugino, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Peter Weller.
Pitt and Ceán Chaffin are producing.
Buzz for the film has been building since it was announced in 2024 that Pitt and Fincher were teaming on the project that Tarantino originally wanted to direct. Once Tarantino gave his blessing for Fincher to come on, Netflix was the obvious stop given the director’s exclusive deal there. After Netflix had recently announced that the Narnia movie would be moving to 2027, there were rumors of a film potentially filling that spot and the studio confirmed today that the Cliff Booth pic would indeed that big screen treatment.
Pitt won an Oscar for playing the character in Tarantino’s 2019 pic Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, which also starred Leonardo DiCaprio and Margot Robbie.
