Mindhunter is Probably Dead But Netizens Aren’t Ready to Accept Another 2020 Fatality

On Saturday, Twitterati woke up to the news of David Fincher telling Vulture that his much-loved Netflix serial killer drama series — Mindhunter — is “probably” done for good. At the start of 2020 it was reported that Mindhunter actors Jonathan Groff, Holt McCallany and Anna Torv were being released from their contracts as the third season of the show was being put on an “indefinite hold” because Fincher was busy working on his new feature Mank. However, recently speaking to Vulture when the show maker was if Mindhunter Season 3 appears to be dead, he replied saying, “I think probably.”

“Listen, for the viewership that it had, it was an expensive show. We talked about ‘Finish ‘Mank’ and then see how you feel,’ but I honestly don’t think we’re going to be able to do it for less than I did Season 2. And on some level, you have to be realistic about dollars have to equal eyeballs,” he told the publication.
