Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, the (as always) hugely anticipated ninth film from director Quentin Tarantino, now has some actual footage available that we can all obsessively pore over in the months leading up to the Charles Manson-involved period piece's big reveal.

Up top, catch the new teaser trailer for Tarantino's latest, starring Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio. This first proper glimpse at the film is comprised mostly of an interview with Pitt and DiCaprio's characters, actor Rick Dalton and stunt double Cliff Booth. The two previous Tarantino collaborators are joined in the star-stacked cast by Margot Robbie, Al Pacino, Bruce Dern, Dakota Fanning, Lena Dunham, Emile Hirsch, and the late Luke Perry.

The teaser trailer's debut was preceded by a pair of new character posters teasing a July release window:

The Tarantino approach of keeping the bulk of the film's plot details closely guarded continues with Hollywood, though DP Robert Richardson recently praised the contemporary Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid vibes of working with Pitt and DiCaprio.

"These are two massive stars, and they're so talented," Richardson told Collider back in October. "Margot [Robbie] is also phenomenal and wonderful to be around. There are a number of people that you will see within the film that haven't had as much exposure that are remarkable." Richardson also highlighted Fanning's performance as a member of the Manson Family, calling it a "powerhouse" moment.

Tarantino's last film was the 2015 nearly-didn't-happen hit The Hateful Eight.
