Published on February 26, 2014

Gone Girl

Director: David Fincher
Writer: Gillian Flynn
Producers: Leslie Dixon, Bruna Papandrea, Reese Witherspoon

Cast: Rosamund Pike, Ben Affleck, Neil Patrick Harris, Missi Pyle, Tyler Perry, Patrick Fugit, Kathleen Rose Perkins, Scoot McNairy, Sela Ward, Kim Dickens, Emily Ratajkowski, Casey Wilson, Boyd Holbrook

Our interest might have spiked at the idea of a Zodiac-like connection of vanishing folks, but the inclusion of Ben Affleck, Scoot McNairy and odd supporting cast fittings means our interest has spiked for good. Add regulars in dp Jeff Cronenweth along with composers Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross to the package and we’ve got premium item. Count on David Fincher to deliver solid studio fare once again with this official 10th feature film (excluding docs).

Gist: Based on the novel, this is about a woman mysteriously disappears on the day of her wedding anniversary.

Release Date: Fox has an October 3rd release for the film with a possible inclusion at TIFF or NYFF.
