David Fincher has explained why Mindhunter had to end on Netflix after just two seasons.During the show’s brief run, Mindhunter was highly acclaimed, garnering praise from critics along with Netflix subscribers. Its first season debuted on the streaming platform in 2017, followed by Season 2’s arrival in 2019. Many were hoping to see the story continue in a third season, but Fincher — a director and EP on the series — said in 2023 that the show was officially dead. Per The Fincher Analyst on X, Fincher shared a more detailed explanation with Première Magazine on why Mindhunter had to end, suggesting that Netflix just wasn’t willing to give him the budget he’d want for the potential third season.Fincher continued, “We did not want to change our approach so, respectfully, they told us that they were drawing a line under it. That’s it: I always take a slight step aside from what is expected of me. Otherwise, I’m not interested. At a test screening of Seven, in the second of silence just before the lights came back on, while everyone was gasping for air, I caught the producer cursing at me, ‘This guy has taken a great thriller and made it into a foreign film!'”
