The novelization of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is set to debut on Amazon this week, and Tarantino is treating us to a teaser trailer advertising the novel. 

The Once Upon A Time In Hollywood novel will dig deep into the lives of Tarantino’s two protagonists, TV actor Rick Dalton and his stunt double Cliff Booth, and the narrative will go both forward and backward in time. That means we will see Rick at the highest highs of his career and might even get more information on Cliff's wife


We know Tarantino did a ton of research for this film, much of which didn't make it into the final cut. It will be nice to see his dedication to the craft and the world shine through.

Tarantino said in a statement when he announced the book, “In the seventies, movie novelizations were the first adult books I grew up reading. And to this day, I have a tremendous amount of affection for the genre. So as a movie-novelization aficionado, I’m proud to announce Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, my contribution to this often marginalized, yet beloved sub-genre in literature. I’m also thrilled to further explore my characters and their world in a literary endeavor that can (hopefully) sit alongside its cinematic counterpart.”

Check out the trailer for the book below.
