David Fincher è al lavoro per sviluppare il prequel di «Chinatown».

Il film neo-noir di Roman Polanski uscito nel 1974, avrà un prequel commissionato da Netflix.

Si tratta del racconto antecedente le vicende narrate nel film «Chinatown», dove figuravano nel cast Jack Nicholson e Faye Dunaway. La pellicola si aggiudicò all’epoca 11 nomination agli Oscar, portandone a casa uno per la migliore sceneggiatura originale a Robert Towne.

A sviluppare l’episodio pilota per la tv saranno Robert Towne e il regista David Fincher, ingaggiati da Netflix.

I due vantano già ottimi trascorsi cinematografici: Robert Towne ha collaborato alla realizzazione di importanti script come «Il Padrino» e «Gangster Story», realizzando invece quelli di «Giorni di tuono», «Il socio» e dei primi due film della saga di «Mission: Impossible».

David Fincher vanta invece una recente collaborazione con Netflix in «House of Cards», «Love», «Death & Robots» e «Mindhunter».
