            It’s been quite a while since we’ve heard any news regarding one of the most sophisticated auteurs of Hollywood, David Fincher (Fight Club, The Social Network) as his last film Gone Girl hit theaters three years ago. After efforts to bring two shows, Utopia and Videosyncrazy to HBO, it seems his other show Mindhunter will return to Netflix which also launched his show House of Cards.

            Mindhunter is based on the nonfiction book, Mind Hunter: Inside the FBI’s Elite Serial Crime Unit written by John Douglas and Mark Olshaker. The book follows Douglas’ work as an FBI profiler who tracked serial killers, and you can get the sense from the trailer that the show will appeal to all huge Fincher fans.

            Check out the trailer for Mindhunter below. The show stars Jonathan Groff, Holt McCallany and Anna Torv. Mindhunter premieres on Netflix in October.
