While making 2007’s Zodiac, Fincher famously had a lot of issues with one of his leading men, Jake Gyllenhaal.
In a new interview with The New York Times, Fincher argued that the problem was caused by Gyllenhaal’s attitude.
It seems Fincher believes that buzz affected the way the actor approached his work on Zodiac.
According to the actor, the fact that David Fincher insisted on retaking each shot again and again and again was both exhausting and ultimately pointless.
