David Fincher shared on Instagram that his new Netflix film The Killer has wrapped filming. The Killer is a neo-noir action film that is based on a French graphic novel of the same name which follows the life of an unnamed assassin. The new Netflix film is being directed by David Fincher, known for The Social Network, Mank, Se7en, and many more critically acclaimed films, and stars Michael Fassbender and Tilda Swinton in the leading roles.
Fincher took to Instagram to celebrate the filming for The Killer having officially wrapped. He posted an image of a clapperboard with the signatures of The Killer’s cast and crew which he had received as a gift from the film’s cinematographer Erik Messerschmidt. In the post, Fincher announces the production has wrapped and although he was too tired to thank everyone, he offered kudos to the film’s leading actors Fassbender and Swinton.

Fincher announced he would be working on an adaptation of The Killer all the way back in 2007 with Paramount, but after years of production issues, he took the project to Netflix in 2021 and has since been able to fully develop the film. This project is part of the four-year deal Fincher signed with Netflix back in 2020, which started with the academy award-nominated film Mank from that same year. Netflix appears to be set to release The Killer in either late 2022 or early 2023.
