Fincher Makes Netflix His Creative Home for the Next 4 Years1 min read
Reading Time: < 1 minuteComing off the raving reviews for Mank, David Fincher seems like he wants to make Netflix his home for a long time. It’s easy to forget that Fincher hasn’t made a project without Netflix since Gone Girl. Just to remind you, House of Cards, Mindhunter, and Mank are all coming from the top streamer.
But now they have made the relationship official.
Speaking to the French magazine Premiere recently, Fincher revealed he’s signed an exclusive four-year deal with Netflix.
“Yes, I have an exclusivity deal with [Netflix] for another four years,” said Fincher. “And depending on Mank’s reception, I’ll either go see them sheepishly asking them what I can do to redeem myself or take the attitude of the arrogant asshole who’ll require making other films in black and white. [Laughs] No, I’m here to deliver them ‘content’—whatever it means—likely to bring them spectators, in my small sphere of influence.”
According to The Playlist, it’s a massive nine-figure deal akin to the one DB Weiss and David Benioff signed.
