One of the major reasons why Paramount was forced to pull World War Z 2 off its release schedule, was because the film never went into production in the first place. The sequel to the sleeper hit could never lock down a director, thus stalling the film, which eventually led up to what happened earlier this week.

After director J.A. Bayona departed from the film, Se7en, Fight Club, and Gone Girl director David Fincher was named as a possible replacement. He’s worked with Brad Pitt twice before, so the idea makes plenty of sense. Well, it looks like Fincher is still very much interested in the gig. Find out more on the story below.

The folks over at CineFix are back with another installment of their “Things You (Probably) Didn’t Know“ YouTube video series.

We’ve already seen them dive into director David Fincher‘s Fight Club not just once but a second time as well. Now they’re visiting another one of Fincher’s works, 1995’s Se7en starring Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman, Kevin Spacey, and Gwyneth Paltrow.

The new video offers seven facts, fittingly, that you might not know about the movie. You can give it a watch below.

After struggling through an early development process, it looks as though Disney’s reimagining of 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea, now called Captain Nemo, is back. The film was originally set to be directed by David Fincher. However, disagreements over the film’s budget and casting choice forced the two to part ways. As a result, the film was put on a production halt until a director could be found.

So after being stalled for the better part of three years, it seems that Disney has found a new director to be at the helm. According to a new report, James Mangold (Walk The Line, The Wolverine) has signed on to be the director of Captain Nemo. More on the story below.

A year ago CineFix offered up 7 Things You (Probably) Didn’t Know about director David Fincher‘s adaptation of the Chuck Palahniuk novel Fight Club, and the video was immensely popular.

But singing about Fight Club? That’s cool.

Believe it or not, True Believers, David Fincher‘s hypnotically brutal and satirical cult classic of Gen X masculinity gone horribly – and hilariously – wrong is looking to become the latest cinematic masterpiece to invade the Great White Way.

Fincher and Nine Inch Nails front-man (and one half of the composing team on his last three films – The Social Network, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and Gone Girl) Trent Reznor are working on a Broadway rock opera adaptation of the filmmaker’s excoriated, and later celebrated, 1999 release Fight Club.
