Netflix’s true crime-based series “Mindhunter” hasn’t generated new material since 2019, but that doesn’t mean the series is entirely dead in the water. Rather, it’s indefinitely on hold at the moment, with David Fincher unsure if he’ll eventually continue telling stories in that world. In other words, “Mindhunter” Season 3 could still happen… just not right now.
Producer David Fincher had noted in a chat with Variety back in November of 2020, “At some point I’d love to revisit it. The hope was to get all the way up to the late 90’s, early 2000’s, hopefully get all the way up to people knocking on the door at Dennis Rader’s house.”
There’s still no word on “Mindhunter” coming back for Season 3, to be clear, but director Andrew Dominik peels back the curtain on Season 3 plans in a chat with Collider this week.
“What they were going to do with Season 3 was they were going to go [to] Hollywood. So one of them was going to be hooking up with Jonathan Demme and the other one was going to be hooking up with Michael Mann. And it was all going to be about profiling making it into the sort of zeitgeist, the public consciousness,” Dominik explains to Collider.
He continues, “It would’ve been… That was the season everyone was really waiting for to do, with when they sort of get out of the basement and start.”
David Fincher has previously noted that “Mindhunter” takes an incredible amount of time, work, and money, which could explain why Season 3 is still up in the air the present time.
Stay tuned for more as we hear it.
