I'll judge after seeing the film 😛🙏🤞

David Fincher confirmed to be helming 'World War Z 2'.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Paramount Pictures boss Jim Gianopulo confirmed Fincher was involved in the upcoming sequel and also revealed the film was "in advanced development" with Pitt putting Fincher's name forward as a director he wanted to work with.

Ugh.Still not happy about this, I can`t help thinking a sequel to a zombie movie is beneath Fincher.I want to see him make an Oscar grade film again. :-/

this is weird, i can't find anything about it in english, but here's a translation:

HBO pode dar uma segunda chance para o remake de Utopia

According to the sites Production Weekly and Spoiler TV, HBO would be considering giving a second chance to the American remake of the excellent British series Utopia. Filming was scheduled to begin later this year.

If you're confused, it's worth reminding you: by 2014, HBO had already tried to adapt Utopia, and the project would be run by none other than the acclaimed filmmaker David Fincher. In addition, Gillian Flynn (Exemplary Girl) would be the scriptwriter, while the Oscar-nominated actress, Rooney Mara (Men Who Did not Love Women), would be the protagonist. Unfortunately, HBO canceled the project a year later because of budget problems before it even went into production.

Since then, the situation has changed. Vinyl, a VERY expensive drama in which HBO bet their chips, failed miserably with the critics and the audience, and there was a change in the station's presidency. According to Production Weekly, the production team of the 2014 version again seems to be involved in the project, including Fincher and Flynn. The series would go into production in October and would last until May 2018. However, there is still no official confirmation from HBO.

no word on Rooney involvment though...
i have no idea if it's even true

This reminds me of the time I had found and shared the news on Annette back when Rooney and Adam first became attached to it. Before it got confirmed from THR, Indiewire, etc. I remember feeling it was too specific for it to not be true, I kind of have the same feeling for this as well. I guess we'll just have to wait for a confirmation. I wonder if true, Rooney will be able to fit this into her schedule.

Oh wow. I did find a mention of Utopia on the Production Weekly site. Of course, I'm not subscribed so I can't find the details. I will say that the guy who runs AwardsWatch follows them on Twitter and I doubt he would if they weren't reliable. I won't count my chickens before they hatch but if it turns out THIS is why she can't film Annette, I won't be upset at all.

If it's true and Production Weekly is reliable, we'll be hearing more about this soon. An impending Fincher project won't go unnoticed.

Hope this is true, but I would prefer they negotiate with Netflix instead… HBO is too expensive over here.

So I've been poking around on Twitter and found people claiming that it IS true that Utopia is being remade at HBO but Fincher, Flynn, and Rooney are NOT involved. They claim everything except for the cast/crew information is accurate. Check the comments here. There are a couple of users claiming they spoke to people related to the project who told them this. HBO was probably still interested in the project but wanted to find someone else who would work with a lower budget. :-[

It's a shame because I can imagine Fincher doing amazing things with that story and you really get what you pay for with him, but I guess they can't do the Netflix thing and throw a ton of money at projects. It's a shame Fincher didn't have the right to try to take the project to Netflix himself. I'm sure they probably would have paid what he was asking.
