The adventures of Cliff Booth, the iconic stuntman played by Brad Pitt in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, are set to continue, People stated. Pitt, alongside director David Fincher, who previously collaborated with the actor on Fight Club, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, and Se7en, is working on a new project for Netflix.
