Quentin Tarantino gets honest about Netflix’s spinoff
The spinoff of Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood will come on Netflix, focusing on Brad Pitt’s character, stuntman Cliff Booth.
However, the Academy-winning director is not directing the upcoming movie; instead, he passed the torch to David Fincher.
Explaining his reason for not doing it, Quentin said on the platform dedicated to discussing his films called The Church of Tarantino podcast.
“I love this script, but I’m still walking down the same ground I’ve already walked. It just kind of unenthused me,” he shared. “This last movie, I’ve got to not know what I’m doing again. I’ve got to be in uncharted territory.”
The filmmaker then gushed about David, who he said is the right director to adapt his work.
“I think me and David Fincher are the two best directors. So the idea that David Fincher actually wants to adapt my work, to me, shows a level of seriousness towards my work that I think needs to be taken into account,” the 62-year-old noted.
However, not directing does not mean Quentin has not attached to the project in any way, as he will write the script and serve as a producer.
“I’m moving back and forth between here and Israel, so I won’t be on the set every day and everything. But, yeah, I’ll be around if they need me to do something, you know, I will,” the Pulp Fiction said.
It’s unclear when The Adventures of Cliff Booth will be out, but a recent report indicated the shooting is ongoing on the film.

US revokes over 100,000 visas, targeting tourists, students, workers
In its ongoing anti-immigration move, the US has revoked over 100,000 visas, affecting tourists, international students, and skilled workers.
Marking a substantial uptick from the 40,000 revocations in 2024, the figure reflects stricter enforcement measures under US President Donald Trump’s second term.
Officials from the Trump administration stated that the crackdown is aimed at improving public safety and ensuring compliance with US immigration laws.
“US authorities are increasingly using court and police data to ensure visa holders comply fully with the law,” a State Department official stated.
Who’s affected by ongoing US visa cancellations?
The largest group affected by the current halt in US visa processing comprises those holding B1, B2, and B1/B2 visas, many of whom faced cancellations due to overstays or unauthorised work.
Around 8,000 student visas were revoked, of which nearly 500 were linked to drug offences. 2,500 cancellations impacted skilled professionals, including H-1B visa holders.
The US authorities are also targeting travellers with criminal records, including DUI, assault, theft, fraud, and drug-related offences.
This revocation campaign is part of a stricter policy aimed at improving data-sharing between government agencies.
An executive order signed on Trump’s first day in office allows authorities to cancel visas even after entry. Officials emphasised that visas are privileges, not guarantees, and that even minor violations will no longer be ignored.
Travellers within the US may face deportation, and those abroad are barred from entry. Affected individuals are advised to consult immigration lawyers, review revocation notices, and maintain transparency in future applications.
