David Fincher might revive ‘Mindhunter' as a Netflix trilogy, reveals actor Holt McCallany
After years of fan requests, filmmaker David Fincher's critically acclaimed psychological crime thriller series, Mindhunter, might return soon, in a different format. Actor Holt McCallany, who starred as FBI agent Bill Tench in the series, has revealed that the project might be revived as a trilogy of films on Netflix. '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,' McCallany said in an interview with CBR. 'I know there are writers that are working, but you know, David has to be happy with scripts,' added the star. Stating that he felt fortunate and privileged for being a part of Mindhunter, McCallany added that 'the sun, the moon and the stars would all have to align' for the project to materialise. '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,' he said. Mindhunter, based on the book Mindhunter: Inside the FBI's Elite Serial Crime Unit, premiered on Netflix in 2017. Set in the 1970s, it followed a special F.B.I. team helmed by agents Bill Tench (McCallany) and Holden Ford (Jonathan Groff) that investigates the minds of serial killers. The second season of the show, which debuted in August 2019, contained hints about a plotline for a possible third season with the cliffhanger of the show featuring the BTK killer. However, the show wasn't renewed for a third season, with Fincher revealing that the show was a 'costly endeavour' for him and that it was too expensive for the viewership it had. In an interview with Vulture, Fincher said, 'I honestly don't think we're going to be able to do it for less than I did season two. And on some level, you have to be realistic about dollars have to equal eyeballs.' The director further said that the show was a 'lot for me' as he spent six to seven months a year for over three years in Pittsburgh in order to work on the series. Despite Fincher's statements, fans of the show have been requesting Netflix and the filmmaker to revive the series, and McCallany's statement might just be ray of hope they were looking for. Notably, McCallany and Fincher are set to reunite for the filmmaker's upcoming Netflix feature, The Adventures of Cliff Booth. The film, written by Quentin Tarantino, expands on the world of one of his most memorable characters from Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.
