    "articleBody": "Timothy Olyphant is going back to 1970s Hollywood. The Justified star reprises TV cowboy James Stacy in The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth, the David Fincher film written by Quentin Tarantino that holds its world premiere in Los Angeles on Monday, November 16. Netflix has set an unusual path for the film: an exclusive two-week run in IMAX theaters worldwide from November 25, then a streaming debut on Netflix on December 23. The film’s public record lists it as the first Netflix release to open exclusively in IMAX. Who James Stacy was Olyphant first played Stacy in Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood in 2019, where Brad Pitt’s stuntman Cliff Booth and Leonardo DiCaprio’s fading star Rick Dalton crossed paths with the actor on a western set. Stacy was a real performer. Born Maurice William Elias in Los Angeles in 1936, he is best remembered as Johnny Madrid Lancer on the CBS western Lancer, which ran for 51 episodes from 1968 to 1970. The new film jumps eight years ahead. Netflix describes it as 1977 Los Angeles, with Cliff working as a bartender and projectionist and, on the side, as a fixer who cleans up problems for the industry’s famous names. The cast around Pitt includes Elizabeth Debicki as talent agent Karen Crosby, Scott Caan as TV star Charlie Peters, Carla Gugino and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II. Olyphant was confirmed to return in August 2025, according to the film’s production history. It is a heavyweight production. Filming ran in Los Angeles from July 2025 to January 2026 on a budget of about $200 million, which would make it the most expensive film for both Tarantino and Fincher. Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross wrote the score, their sixth film with the director. Olyphant’s busiest year in a decade The premiere caps a crowded 2026 for the 58-year-old actor. Count the screen credits on his own filmography and the year looks like this: Lucky, the Apple TV limited series, where he plays John Armstrong across 7 episodes. The Five-Star Weekend on Peacock, which reunited him with his Catch and Release co-star Jennifer Garner. It premiered on July 9 and was renewed for a second season on August 5. Over Your Dead Body, a feature in which he plays Pete Bateson. A guest turn as Wyatt Earp in Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness. Add the Cliff Booth film and that is five new projects in a single year, on top of his 2025 work in FX’s Alien: Earth and the sports comedy Stick. There is a neat circle in this casting. Olyphant’s first paid acting job, in 1995, was a WB pilot based on 77 Sunset Strip, produced by Clint Eastwood, who quit days before filming. Three decades later, he keeps returning to the westerns and lawmen of old television, from Seth Bullock in Deadwood to Raylan Givens in Justified and now to Stacy, a real-life TV gunslinger. Badiyaa recently traced the origin of a viral Clint Eastwood quote about westerns and jazz, and another cult crime film getting a long-delayed follow-up is Nicolas Cage’s Lords of War, which returns him to arms dealer Yuri Orlov. Tarantino has already given fans a preview: in October he presented the first 17 minutes of the film at an AFI Fest screening. His novelization, titled The Adventures of Cliff Booth, is due on December 8, between the IMAX run and the Netflix debut on December 23.
