David Fincher Doubts His Netflix Projects Will Ever Get a Physical Release
David Fincher has mixed feelings about whether 'Mindhunter' or any of his other Netflix projects will get a proper physical release.
In Mindhunter, McCallany plays Bill Tench, the partnet of Jonathan Groff's Holden Ford, with both working in the Behavioral Science Unit at the FBI. Joining them is Anna Torv as Wendy Carr, the psychology professor who contributes with her extensive knowledge when analyzing the minds of serial killers. The show follows the FBI unit that pioneered criminal profiling, meeting face-to-face with the most ruthless serial killers in order to gather as much data as possible and thus stop and catch future killers. Per the show's official synopsis:
In the late 1970s, two FBI agents broaden the realm of criminal science by investigating the psychology behind murder and end up getting too close to real-life monsters.
The actor, who's also famous for his roles in The Iron Claw, Wrath of Man, and The Amateur, recently sat down with CBR to discuss his most recent project, The Waterfront. The series is directed by Scream veteran Kevin Williamson, and it premiered exclusively on Netflix. When addressing his past as Tench, McCallay was kind enough to offer an exciting Mindhunter update:
"So look, you know, I had a meeting with David Fincher in his office a few months ago, and he said to me that there is a chance that it may come back as three two-hour movies, but I think it's just a chance. I know there are writers that are working, but you know, David has to be happy with scripts.
"I felt very fortunate and privileged to have gotten to do that show at all. I would love it if it were to return. I think, like I said, you know, he gave me a little bit of hope when I had that meeting with him, but the sun, the moon, and the stars would all have to align.
"The good news is that we're at Netflix with The Waterfront, and those movies would also be for Netflix. So I think that in terms of dates and logistics, it could all be worked out, but it has to do, you know, with David really having the time and the inclination and being happy, you know, with the material. And, you know, that's a big question mark."
Despite only running for two seasons, the fanbase supporting Mindhunter is unmatched. The fan-favorite thriller series has amassed a cult following unlike many other shows on modern television, and fans always call out the streamer for canceling it during its peak. Needless to say, Season 3 of Mindhunter would be a major TV event. It is also a critically acclaimed series. Season 1 of Mindhunter boasts a 96% score on Rotten Tomatoes, while Season 2 is even higher at 99%.
