Because if it ain’t broke don’t fix it. Gone Girl director David Fincher and star Ben Affleck are going to reunite for a modern adaptation of a Alfred Hitchcock novel with a twist. The team will be working on a remake of Strangers on a Train, but the film will simply be called Strangers.

Word is that Gillian Flynn, who wrote the script for Gone Girl as well as the book it’s based on, will pen the Strangers script. But the idea of setting the film in a train may be a bit outdated, so according to Deadline, the film will be contemporary and fit for a modern day audience. Hit the jump for more.

Gone Girl director David Fincher‘s cult classic adaptation of the Chuck Palahniuk novel Fight Club has finally gotten the Honest Trailers treatment in celebration of the movie’s 15th anniversary.

“Love is the world’s infinite mutability; lies, hatred, murder even, are all knit up in it; it is the inevitable blossoming of its opposites, a magnificent rose smelling faintly of blood.” – Tony Kushner, The Illusion

Directed by David Fincher, Gone Girl is based on the 2012 novel by Gillian Flynn, who also wrote the screenplay. A dark, ominous mystery-thriller, Gone Girl fits perfectly within Fincher’s stylized oeuvre, which includes modern masterpieces like Se7en, The Game, Fight Club, and Zodiac.

On the morning of his fifth wedding anniversary, Nick Dunne (Ben Affleck) discovers that his wife, Amy (Rosamund Pike), is missing. Under pressure from the police and a growing media frenzy, Nick’s portrait of a perfect marriage begins to disintegrate. Soon his lies, deceits, and erratic behavior have everyone asking, “Did Nick Dunne kill his wife?”

Before J.J. Abrams got the gig to direct Star Wars: Episode VII, there were many other directors on the rumored short list, from Brad Bird, Andrew Stanton, and Jon Favreau to Zack Snyder, Joss Whedon, and Guillermo Del Toro. Fan speculation and the Internet only fueled the rumor mill. Even Rian Johnson was one of the frontrunners, that is, until he got the job to direct Episode VIII and Episode IX. There were so many names, but Disney ultimately decided to let Abrams direct, with Johnson directing the final two episodes of the trilogy.

Now that Abrams is already months into production for Episode VII‘s December 2015 release, Gone Girl‘s David Fincher is talking about how he was close to directing the highly anticipated sequel. Hit the jump to see what he had to say about not accepting the offer to direct Episode VII.

With a sequel comic on the way from author Chuck Palahniuk, today (and any other day, really) is a good time to revisit David Fincher‘s 1999 adaptation of Fight Club.
