Once Upon a Time in Hollywood - the ninth film from Quentin Tarantino - premiered at the Cannes Film Festival today ahead of its July release. To mark the occasion, Sony have released a brand-new trailer and a selection of new posters. The trailer itself doesn't reveal too many details surrounding the plot, but does take a slightly greater focus on the character of Rick Dalton, played by Leonardo DiCaprio.

Set to the backdrop of the Manson Murders, this latest trailer sees Dalton's character struggling to adjust to a changing industry, while his stunt-double best friend Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt) is introduced to Charles Manson and his associates. There's a sinister undercurrent to the last half of the trailer, which includes a better look at Damon Herriman's portrayal of Manson, as well as his notorious 'family', and it plays in to the sense that Once Upon a Time is going to be ever-so-slightly unpredictable.

Really, there's not much else to say other than 'so far, so good'. Tarantino issued a plea to audiences earlier in the day asking them not to spoil the film for their fellow moviegoers' sake, and if this latest trailer is anything to go by, then there are going to be a lot of surprises lying in wait.

As for the posters - yes, they're great and yes you're going to want them all. They feature Dalton in several of his own fictitious releases, each bearing the indelible hallmark of Hollywood's golden period.

Content Producer/Presenter

WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well. In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
