However, after months of a long wait, in January 2020, Netflix announced that the potential release of Mindhunter Season 3 is put on an indefinite Hold as its director David Fincher is going to pursue some other projects. And by some other project, I meant the feature film MANK that recently won two Oscars in the best cinematography and best production design category Now that the Award season is over, the director and showrunner are once again in the talks with Netflix to bring back the psychological thriller show. What does this mean? Will there be a new Mindhunter season? Or it’s just a hoax to Hype up some of their new project coming on Netflix. Well, let’s find out:
Latest Update on Mindunter season 3 Release
Is it true that Minecraft season 3 will be returning? Well, if it was done shady website, I wouldn’t have agreed. When it comes to the release of a new series or a new season, it becomes quite difficult to find the difference between a rumor and legit news. This time, it’s news portal small screen that has confirmed David Fincher’s desires and expectations to release some more Mindhunter episodes. Even though the talks are happening, but still they are in a very early stage. So, it’s hard to predict what’s going to happen next. However, unlike last time, this year, he seems a bit more positive in approach as his latest feature film has won Oscars in two major categories. When the small screen posted this sort of news, I was shell-shocked as in one of his previous interviews, the Mindhunter director revealed the primary reason why it’s highly unlikely to have more Mindhunter episodes. As I expected, the reason was production costs. In his exact wording, this is what he said. However, despite all this, the mindhunter TV series surpassed everyone’s expectations and received one of the highest viewership to date. So, I guess that’s enough reason for Netflix to once again resume the talks with the director David Fincher for a new Mindhunter season 3.
