Quentin Tarantino is confirmed to attend this year’s AFI Fest for a special event featuring a conversation and a screening of his 2019 film “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.” The American Film Institute says the event is scheduled for Oct. 23 at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, the venue that previously hosted the film’s original world premiere.
Multiple outlets report the same event format and location. Variety also frames the appearance as part of the surrounding coverage of Tarantino’s current projects and notes connections to industry news, including a reference to David Fincher’s forthcoming film “The Further Mis-Adventures Of Cliff Booth,” which involves Brad Pitt.
While the sources largely align on the core details—Tarantino’s participation, the Oct. 23 date, the TCL Chinese Theatre, and the screening of “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood”—their emphasis varies slightly. Deadline spotlights the AFI Fest announcement and the film screening, while Hollywood Reporter focuses on the confirmation and the historical link to the 2019 premiere venue.
