A Netflix representative subsequently provided a brief timeline update during the same period.
"Maybe in five years," the representative told Vulture.
Fincher reiterated the disparity between production expenses and audience size in a separate interview with Variety.
"I don’t know if it makes sense to continue," Fincher said. "It was an expensive show.
It had a very passionate audience, but we never got the numbers that justified the cost."
"At some point, I’d love to revisit it. The hope," he added.
Series star Holt McCallany revealed that discussions regarding a non-traditional revival format took place during a meeting with Fincher.
"He said to me that there is a chance that it may come back as three two-hour movies, but I think it’s just a chance," McCallany told ScreenRant.
The actor noted that any potential revival remains dependent on script approvals and logistical alignment.
"I would love it if it were to return.
I think, like I said, you know, he gave me a little bit of hope when I had that meeting with him, but the sun, the moon, and the stars would have to align," McCallany added.
