Earlier in the year news came around that David Fincher’s fantastic Mindhunter series on Netflix was put on hold indefinitely. Today we learn that the series is done, at least for now. The famed director recently spoke with Variety and mentioned that he would like to revisit the series in the future. You can check out what he had to say below.
“At some point, I’d love to revisit it. The hope was to get all the way up to the late ’90s, early 2000’s, hopefully, get all the way up to people knocking on the door at Dennis Rader’s house.”

“I don’t know if it makes sense to continue. It was an expensive show. It had a very passionate audience, but we never got the numbers that justified the cost… I certainly needed some time away. We had all hands on deck to finish [season two] and we didn’t have a ton of scripts and a ton of outlines and a bible standing by for season three. I’ll admit I was a little bit like ‘I don’t know that I’m ready to spend another two years in the crawl space.’”
It seems Fincher had plans for at least two more seasons, and for the show to end with the story of the BTK killer, who killed 10 people and was known for almost taunting aw enforcement with detailed letters of the incidents.
I enjoyed the show immensely, as I do most of Fincher’s films. Hopefully, the director will return to the strange and macabre world of serial killers. I find it surprising it didn’t draw in the necessary numbers to warrant the cost of the series. Currently, Fincher is currently promoting his well-received film Mank which will be available on Netflix on December 4.
