David Fincher Done With Netflix’s MUNDHUNTER – For Now

One of my favortie current shows is Netflix’s Mindhunter from Zodiac and Se7en director David Fincher. We’ve been waiting for news on season 3 for forever now… just not this kind of news. Today, Fincher says that he’s done with the series.

Fincher tells Vulture: “Listen, for the viewership that it had, it was a very expensive show…on some level, you have to be realistic — dollars have to equal eyeballs. Mindhunter was a lot for me… It’s a 90-hour workweek. It absorbs everything in your life. When I got done, I was pretty exhausted, and I said, ‘I don’t know if I have it in me right now to break season three.’

Now while Fincher might be done with Mindhunter, Netflix hasn’t canceled the show and is leaving “the door a tiny crack open” for its return, “Maybe in five years.”

In the meantime, the first two stellar seasons are still streaming on Netflix.

Executive produced by David Fincher and Charlize Theron, the series follows FBI agents Holden Ford and Bill Tench as they attempt to understand and catch serial killers by studying their damaged psyches. Along the way, the agents pioneer the development of modern serial-killer profiling.

The second season sports a 99% approval rating over on Rotten Tomatoes with a Critics Consensus that reads: Mindhunter expands its narrative horizons without losing sight of the details that made its first season so rich, crafting a chilling second season that is as unsettling as it is utterly absorbing.
