After Blowing People&#8217;s Mind in 1995, David Fincher Is Turning His Brad Pitt Classic Into a Netflix Series

Netflix is digging into old classics for a more thrilling future. The OTT
platform is set to bring back a spine-chilling movie and turn it into a proper
series. A project that will be handled by none other than David Fincher, who led
to the success of a cult classic. It will reintroduce the hit story to a newer
audience while adding to the platform’s ever-increasing list of thrillers.

Fincher has already worked with Netflix before, creating shows like House of
Cards, Mindhunter, Mank, Love Death and Robots. But the 1995 mystery thriller we
are talking about not only brought success to him but also to its powerful star
cast. It would ring some bells if we say it had Brad Pitt in it. And now,
Fincher is in talks with Netflix to have a series made out of it.


HOW DAVID FINCHER WILL MAKE A SERIES OUT OF THIS 1995 CLASSIC FOR NETFLIX

When David Fincher joined hands with Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman, we got a
timeless thriller that is still loved by fans all over, Se7en. According to
Giant Freakin Robot,
[https://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/ent/exclusive-se7en-david-fincher.html] the
director is set to recreate his all-time classic movie. Now Netflix has taken
sources from books, cases, or games to make shows, but a series like Bates Motel
is one of the rare examples of turning a movie into a series.



Se7en was an instant box office hit back in 1995. Along with Pitt and Freeman,
it casts Kevin Spacey, John Mc Ginley, Gwyneth Paltrow, etc. The crime thriller
was written by Andrew Walker and revolved around detectives finding one smart
and vicious serial killer who apparently kills victims based on seven deadly
sins like gluttony, lust, greed, and joy. The detectives must find him and stop,
but not before decoding the reasons for his killings.

The movie ends on an unsettling note, giving the killer what he wants and
becoming a prime example of Fincher’s work. Though it is confirmed that the
series of the movie is in talks, what else is there to know about it?


WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THE UPCOMING SHOW SO FAR

Adaptation of a cult-classic would certainly require Fincher to stay true to the
source while not being repetitive. A movie tells the entire story in hours while
a series needs to continue and keep fans looped in through episodes.

There is no announcement of the cast or whether the same plot will be used for
the series. As of now, the director is set to release his net thriller called
The Killer on the OTT platform in November.
