Brad Pitt Debuts New Look for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood Sequel

How Gwyneth Paltrow Reacted to Ex Brad Pitt’s Marriage to Jennifer Aniston

Brad Pitt is wigging out for his latest role.

The actor, who most recently sported a Y2K-era buzz cut while promoting his latest blockbuster F1, returned to the longer blonde hairdo he donned in 2019’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood as he stepped out on set of the movie’s upcoming sequel in Los Angeles July 28.

In addition to the voluminous hair piece, Brad, 61, revived the character of Cliff Booth—which earned him an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in 2020—by wearing the Hollywood stunt double’s signature wardrobe including a yellow Hawaiian shirt and blue jeans, along with a toothpick hanging from his mouth.

While the original movie was written and directed by Quentin Tarantino, the filmmaker has handed off directorial duties to David Fincher for the follow-up, Variety reported in April. It also remains to be seen whether Leonardo DiCaprio will return as Rick Dalton in the film, which is set to debut on Netflix at a date that is yet to be announced.

Although specific details about the project remain under wraps, Brad previously shared his excitement to revisit the film’s universe in June.

“This is something Quentin wrote as an episode—not really a sequel, but an episode of the character from Once Upon a Time,” he told Deadline at the time. “It should be really fun. It should be good fun.”

And it certainly comes as no surprise that Brad would be interested in reprising the role of Cliff, given his initial attraction to the character.

“Where I am in my life, I was just really drawn to him,” he explained to Magazine in January 2020. “It was a guy who was pretty at peace with his place in life. Knew what he was dedicated to. What he was not dedicated to. Looked for the best in people but was not surprised to get the worst in people. I could relate to that.”
