Based on the French graphic novel series written by Alexis “Matz” Nolent and illustrated by Luc Jacamon, The Killer was written for the big screen by Andrew Kevin Walker. He previously wrote the script for Fincher’s seminal serial killer movie Se7en, and they most recently collaborated on the animated series Love, Death & Robots.

According to Netflix’s official synopsis, The Killer takes place in the aftermath of a fateful near-miss, and it centers on an assassin battling his employers and himself on an international manhunt he insists isn’t personal.

In addition to Fassbender in the titular role, this psychological thriller also stars Arliss Howard, Charles Parnell, Kerry O’Malley, Sala Baker, Sophie Charlotte, and Tilda Swinton.

The Killer will have its world premiere at the Venice International Film Festival on September 3, where it’s competing for the prestigious Gold Lion trophy. It will be released in selected theatres on October 27, before heading to Netflix on November 10.

About a month ahead of the festival’s opening night, Venice bosses finally shared the full lineup with the world. Yorgos Lanthimos’ Poor Things, Michael Mann’s Ferrari, and Sofia Coppola’s Priscilla are only some of the high-profile projects set to premiere as a part of the “in competition” program, while Wes Anderson’s The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar and Richard Linklater’s Hit Man will premiere out of competition.

Edoardo De Angelis’s Comandante will serve as the festival’s opening film after Luca Guadagnino’s Challengers withdraw from the festival as a result of the SAG-AFTRA strike. Several A-list stars are expected to miss the festival for this reason, but the artistic director Alberto Barbera is still certain that the red carpet will be pretty full.

“Luckily enough the consequences of this strike – which has very good motivations we can agree to – the impact is quite modest on our festival. A few stars will not be with us… We will have actors and actresses who have worked in productions that are fully independent,” said Barbera while talking to the press.

The 80th Venice International Film Festival will return to Italy between August 30 and September 9, with Damien Chazelle serving as the jury president.

Gary Oldman stars as the social critic and alcoholic screenwriter Mankiewicz, who revaluates 1930s Hollywood as he races to finish the Citizen Kane script.

In the trailer, Mankiewicz, who goes by Mank, is called “a court jester” and cautioned he’s “hunting dangerous game” in taking on William Randolph Hearst (Charles Dance), who Charles Foster Kane is partly based on. Welles (Tom Burke) asks if Mank is “ready and willing to hunt the great white whale,” and Mank responds, “Just call me Ahab.”

Also in the black and white drama are Arliss Howard, Lily Collins, Amanda Seyfried, Tuppence Middleton, Tom Pelphrey, Sam Troughton, Ferdinand Kingsley, and Toby Leonard Moore.

Citizen Kane was released in 1941 and the script for Mank was written by David Fincher’s late father Jack Fincher.

Mank will be released by Netflix in select domestic theaters in November before it is added to the streaming service globally on December 4.

The film follows screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz who’s in the process of finishing writing the script for Orson Welles’ iconic film. The alcoholic screenwriter, known for his social criticism, is played by Gary Oldman. Other cast members are Tom Burke as Orson Welles, Amanda Seyfried as Marion Davies, Charles Dance as William Randolph Hearst, Lily Collins as Rita Alexander, Tuppence Middleton as Sara Mankiewicz, and many more.

The movie is produced by Netflix, which is now giving us a first look at the movie—and it looks stunning. The streaming giant posted pictures of the movie on its twitter account. The pictures show highly stylized black and white pictures, which play to the director’s talent.

Howard Jack Fincher, the director’s father, wrote the script for Mank prior to his death in 2003, which makes it a passion project for Fincher. Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross are responsible for the movie’s score. The duo has previously worked with Fincher and won an Academy Award for The Social Network score. He also reunites with production designer Donald Graham Burt. Erik Messerschmidt, who worked with Fincher on the Netflix series Mindhunter, is the cinematographer.

Netflix is yet to confirm an official release date, but it’s expected to come out in October.

Despite the fact Mindhunter was created by Joe Penhall, Fincher was one of the driving creative forces behind this project. The Netflix bosses felt it’s time to release the cast from their contracts since it’s unclear when he’ll be able to come back on board again.

“David is focused on directing his first Netflix film Mank and on producing the second season of Love, Death and Robots. He may revisit Mindhunter again in the future, but in the meantime felt it wasn’t fair to the actors to hold them from seeking other work while he was exploring new work of his own,” said a Netflix spokesperson in a statement.

This doesn’t necessarily mean we’re saying goodbye to Mindhunter for good. The series is currently on an indefinite hiatus, but there’s a chance it could return in the future.

Mindhunter followed a group of FBI agents trying to solve open cases by conducting interviews with serial killers, and it starred Jonathan Groff, Holt McCallany and Anna Torv.

This project has been decades in the making, and it will tell the story of famed screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz. He won an Oscar for Citizen Kane alongside Orson Welles, but two visionaries clashed loudly over the credit on this iconic film.

David Fincher has been dreaming about making this movie since the late ‘90s, but his insistence to shoot it in black and white eventually led to its fallout. Fortunately, Netflix has his back now and critically acclaimed director will start shooting his dream project later this fall.

Mank is probably one of the most personal movies of his career since it’s based on the screenplay written by his late father Howard Fincher. He served as Life Magazine’s bureau chief before passing away in 2003.

The series titled Love, Death & Robots hails from Tim Miller (Deadpool) and David Fincher (Gone Girl, House of Cards, Fight Club). News of the series was announced by the streaming service Monday. 

Miller and Finched have teamed up to create a series aimed at adults. According to The Hollywood Reporter the series will be a collection of 18 animated short stories, and will be a mix of science fiction, fantasy, horror and comedy genres. Every installment will be created by a different creative from around the world and will feature a unique animation style. Fincher, Miller, Jennifer Miller, and Josh Donen serve as executive producers. 

“Love, Death & Robots is my dream project, it combines my love of animation and amazing stories,” Miller said in a statement. “Midnight movies, comics, books, and magazines of fantastic fiction have inspired me for decades, but they were relegated to the fringe culture of geeks and nerds of which I was a part. I’m so f—ing excited that the creative landscape has finally changed enough for adult-themed animation to become part of a larger cultural conversation.”
