David Fincher Plunges into “Black Hole”
David Fincher
According to Variety, David Fincher, who despite what Oscar says is responsible for one of the best films of 2007, Zodiac, has signed on to direct Black Hole, a film based on the Charles Burns graphic novel. Fincher takes over from Alexandre Aja, the French splatter guru known best for High Tension and the remake of The Hills Have Eyes. It will be scripted by Neil Gaiman and Roger Avary, which should light up all your cinematic and graphic novel supergeek sensors.
This is emphatically not a remake of the Disney supercheese sci-fi film from 1979. Black Hole tells the story of a group of ’70s teenagers who contract a sexually transmitted disease variously known as “The Bug” or “The Teen Plague,” and begin developing physical mutations. Fincher’s definitely the guy for this one.
