A potential third season of
Mindhunter has been put on indefinite hold and cast members Jonathan Groff, Holt McCallany and Anna Torv have been released from their contracts. Exec producer David Fincher’s busy schedule precipitated the move. The show has
not, however, been cancelled.
“David is focused on directing his first Netflix film
Mank and on producing the second season of
Love, Death and Robots,” a Netflix rep said in a statement to TVLine. “He may revisit
Mindhunter again in the future, but in the meantime felt it wasn’t fair to the actors to hold them from seeking other work while he was exploring new work of his own.”
