20 Upcoming Movie Sequels That Might Be Better Than The First

15. The Adventures of Cliff Booth

Once Upon A Time In Hollywood Brad Pitt

Under pretty much any other circumstance, it would be tough to have much enthusiasm for a sequel to a Quentin Tarantino film that isn't being directed by the man himself.

But this wildly unexpected follow-up to Tarantino's most recent film, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, is a unique case given that directing duties are being undertaken by one of the best filmmakers working today - the great David Fincher.

And to be clear, the script for The Adventures of Cliff Booth has been penned by Tarantino. 

While you might question why Tarantino wouldn't direct a script he also wrote, it's apparently less about its quality than Tarantino not wanting his tenth and final directorial effort to be a sequel.

And considering that Brad Pitt's stuntman Cliff Booth was far and away the most praised aspect of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood - even netting Pitt a well-earned Best Supporting Actor Oscar - a sequel focused on him could be even better, especially with Pitt's regular collaborator Fincher leading the charge.
