In a new interview promoting his latest movie, the Hollywood historical biography Mank, Fincher lashed out at Hollywood studios for their singular obsession with billion dollar movies.
David Fincher has adapted plenty of books: Fight Club, Gone Girl, The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo.
He credited companies like Netflix for making movies that “actually reflect our culture and wrestle with big ideas.”
But he hasn’t taken on a massive franchise, or made a movie based on a popular comic book-series.
