David Fincher’s Subsequent Undertaking Could Be within the World of Squid Sport

Deadline studies a brand new English-language Squid Game sequence is now within the works at Netflix, with Zodiac and Se7en director David Fincher aboard in a growth function.

Although “particulars are imprecise” and “Netflix had no remark” when requested to elaborate on the streamer’s newest team-up with the favored filmmaker, the outlet suggests this new Squid Sport sequence might be Fincher’s subsequent mission, beginning in 2025. Deadline additionally opined Fincher is an ideal match for the burgeoning franchise—which has since expanded into video video games and an unscripted competitors sequence since taking the world by storm in 2021— as a result of “it’s additionally just like his 1997 thriller The Sport, starring Michael Douglas and Sean Penn. That movie additionally revolves round real-life folks changing into unwitting individuals in a diabolical sport.” Actually debatable!

Although this would be the very first scripted successor sequence to Hwang Dong-hyuk’s revolutionary Squid Sport at Netflix, it’s removed from Fincher’s solely mission on the firm, whose earlier collaborations with the streamer embrace Mindhunter, Home of Playing cards, and Love + Loss of life and Robots.

Rumors of the director’s involvement with a U.S.-set companion sequence to Squid Sport have been circulating since final summer season, when the Playlist urged Fincher had put his deliberate Chinatown prequel sequence on maintain for the chance to come back aboard. Final week, insider Daniel Richtman (by way of World of Reel) reported his involvement, stating the brand new sequence can be an official spinoff titled Squid Sport: America, providing the prospect for characters from the unique sequence to make particular crossover appearances. In response to each sources, Utopia‘s Dennis Kelly could also be concerned with the sequence as head author—however for now, that continues to be a rumor.

Conflictingly, Production List suggests Fincher’s subsequent mission is Bitterroot, a “neo-western” scheduled to start filming this January; it’s mentioned to concern “a 78-year-old WWII veteran and Montana rancher burdened by coronary heart illness, diabetes, and medical payments” who “wins a million-dollar sweepstakes,” with not-so-happy outcomes. Come to assume, the similarity of the 2 tasks’ themes could even counsel they’re one and the identical, with “Bitterroot” serving as a working title. Stranger issues have occurred at Netflix. 

Come what could, it appears Fincher enjoys working for Netflix and, as beforehand famous by Deadline, tales about video games. On that we will all agree.
