David Fincher is reportedly ending his Netflix deal after six years and three films, including the upcoming ‘Cliff Booth,’ according to Variety; the report says his pact with the streamer will expire next year. The report uses those details to describe the end of an exclusive partnership that began with television projects.
Variety reports Fincher “isn’t renewing his pact at Netflix after his deal at the streamer expires next year,” and credits his long creative partnership with the company to projects such as “House of Cards” and “Mindhunter.” The article names the three-film, six-year span and singles out ‘Cliff Booth’ as part of that package.
Fincher has worked with Netflix in both television and film capacities, and Variety frames the relationship as extending from the director’s early Netflix television collaborations into an exclusive film deal. The report describes the pact as a multi-year relationship that included television beginnings and later exclusive film work at the streamer.
The Variety report is the source for the central claims about the deal’s length, the number of films and the non-renewal; it says the agreement will end next year and that Fincher will not renew, though it does not quote a public statement from Fincher or Netflix in the piece.
What this means for future projects is not detailed in the Variety report; the article does not include a formal announcement from Netflix or a quoted spokesperson confirming negotiations. Variety instead places the move in the context of Fincher’s long relationship with the streamer.
For readers tracking Netflix’s creative shifts, this report follows other high-profile talent moves and exclusive deals at the streamer. For context on Netflix programming changes, see a recent piece about a new Netflix series in the site’s coverage of the platform’s slate.
Internally, the site also covered Netflix’s new series launches earlier this year in other reports — for instance, a story on the platform picking up a new travel series.
