David Fincher would only sign up to direct if 1) he got 100% creative control and 2) Pitt played Tyler. 3) Pitt said he'd only sign to do it if Fincher directed. Perfect script. Fincher, one of only a handful of directors that could have truly captured Palahniuk's novel properly. Perfect storm. Perfect movie.
The world runs on leverage, not loyalty. Fincher had them by the balls and he dunked it.
