I just finished the second season of Mindhunter and it was freakin’ incredible! It’s easily one of the best shows you can watch right now. Netflix has yet to renew it for a third season, but when creator David Fincher pitched the series to Netflix, he wanted it to run for five seasons.

During a recent interview with THR, Holt McCallany, who plays FBI agent Bill Tench on Mindhunter, offered some insight on Fincher’s plan for the series, saying:

“He said ‘Listen, are you ready to do this for five seasons? Because even if I fuck it up, it’s gonna go five seasons, and I don’t intend to fuck it up.’ So I’d like to think that we will continue, for as long as David is intrigued by telling this particular story.”

So, hopefully Netflix stops playing with our emotions soon and renews the damn series for Season 3 already! There is so much more that this series can dive into, so many crazy, sick, and twisted serial killer stories that could involve the likes of Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy, Hillside Strangler, Green River Killer, and more. The series is currently setting up BTK.

I hope that Netflix allows Fincher to keep telling these stories! The series is just so well done with incredible writing, acting, and cinematography.

The report goes on to say that even though Mindhunter hasn’t been renewed yet, production on the show will by “moving to a different production location.” The fact they are planning on moving the production tells us that there are no plans of shutting it down and canceling it yet!

McCallany also teased that Season 3 might be “a complete reimagining of the show.” Unfortunately, he doesn’t explain what that means. I imagine there could be a significant time jump or something like that. In a previous interview with Collider, the real FBI agent that the series is based on, John Douglas, offered some other story lines that the show could explore:

“There’s a lot more they could do. A good one would be the Hanson case up in Alaska. Robert Hanson. He’s the one who hunted down women, flew them up into the wilderness in his airplane that he owned, and then he’d strip ’em down naked and hunt them down like wild animals. That’s going to be a big one. And Green River is going to be a big one. The BTK, they’re doing it now. I don’t know if they’ll come to a resolution… There are some other cases, and some cases are not well known, but they’re interesting cases. We were involved, my partner and I, in the John Gacy case. And of course you’ve got Ted Bundy. That was another agent in my unit who I sent down to spend time with Ted Bundy. That has to be one as well.”

What serial killers would you like to see the series explore as it continues?
