The Adventures of Cliff Booth / Peter Gunn (Live 1977/78)

February 12, 2026

We are thrilled that ELP’s version of Henry Mancini’s “Peter Gunn” theme was chosen as the music featured in the trailer for The Adventures of Cliff Booth.  

The trailer for the movie premiered during the Super Bowl, showcasing the music to a huge audience, and generating excitement for the movie.  ELP’s take on “Peter Gunn” is basically Henry Mancini put through a prog-rock blender and cranked to 11. The driving beat and urgency conveyed by the melody certainly sets the tone for what we guess will be an action packed movie! We are gratified by the outpouring of fan response on social media, celebrating this achievement along with us.  Thank you for continuing to share our music and supporting the legacy of ELP.

The Adventures of Cliff Booth is a sequel to Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, with Brad Pitt and Timothy Olyphant reprising their respective roles as Cliff Booth and James Stacy.  It is expected to debut on Netflix.
