With “The Killer,” David Fincher finds himself in familiar territory: working again with “Se7en” scribe Andrew Kevin Walker on a lean, mean adaptation of a pulpy crime plot.

And how well Fincher excels in fare like that–whether it’s stuff like “Panic Room” or his take on airport reads like “Gone Girl“–is why he’s one of his generation’s most beloved filmmakers.

If you’re a fan of David Fincher, you know the filmmaker has flirted with the idea of sequels in the past. Most notably, the director was long attached to a sequel to the hit horror film, “World War Z.” However, in recent years, there has been quite a bit of chatter about a sequel to his award-winning 2010 film, “The Social Network.” Obviously, there’s plenty of new developments in the social media world to warrant another film, but in addition, writer Aaron Sorkin has even teased the possibility of it happening.

I liked it as a meditation tape, I thought it was amusing and funny.”He added: “I don’t think that there’s a library of music by recording artists that have as much sardonic nature and wit simultaneously [as the Smiths].

Variety reports that Amazon MGM Studios has a new series adaptation of Larsson’s nordic noir book series in the works; moviegoers may better know them for “The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo,” which David Fincher did his own take of back in 2011 as part of his lean, mean, airport paperback adaptation phase that also included 2014’s “Gone Girl.” READ MORE: David Fincher Is Proud Of ‘Dragon Tattoo’ But Admits The Film Is “A Swing & A Miss” Amazon/MGM first announced their new adaptation was in development in May 2020, but without a showrunner attached.

Once upon a time, David Fincher‘s follow-up to 2014’s “Gone Girl” would have been a sequel to the 2013 blockbuster “World War Z.” But Fincher’s entry into blockbuster filmmaking never happened, with Paramount eventually scrapping the project by 2019. But what did one of Hollywood’s most distinct visual stylists have in mind for the sequel?
