David Fincher - the new candidate for the Cleopatra film


Sony Pictures struggles to pin down a director for its in-development 3D Cleopatra biopic starring Angelina Jolie.

At the beginning, James Cameron showed interest, but is moving ahead with his Avatar sequels instead. The next candidate was Paul Greengrass, but he will instead be directing his own historical drama, Memphis.

Now The Social Network director David Fincher is reportedly being considered for the job. This would reunite him once again with producer Scott Rudin (who produced The Social Network and Fincher’s upcoming Girl With the Dragon Tattoo adaptation) but it would be Jolie's first time working with this director.

However, timing could be an issue as Fincher may want to make two more films in the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo series and the in-demand filmmaker has several other projects in the pipeline.
