Michael Fassbender's return to acting in The Killer could potentially change things in the career achievements of director David Fincher.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT David Fincher's The Killer could mark a turning point in the director's career thanks to Michael Fassbender's performance in the movie. The first thriller from Fincher since 2014, The Killer made its debut at the Venice International Film Festival where it received a Special Mention for its music, and that's likely not the last of its accolades.
The Killer is Fassbender's comeback movie, as it's his first acting gig since 2019's X-Men: Dark Phoenix. He stars in The Killer as the title character, a cold assassin who fights against his employers — and his own state of mind — after a job goes fatally wrong. Fassbender has been receiving a lot of attention for his role in the action thriller, and his performance is being celebrated by critics, but there hasn't been a lot of Oscar buzz for his work in the movie.
Even If He's Nominated, Michael Fassbender Will Likely Continue David Fincher's Acting Oscars Curse With his role in The Killer, Michael Fassbender could see a career resurgence after taking a three-year hiatus from acting to race cars professionally. However, even if he does receive an Oscar nomination for his performance in the movie, the chances are high that Fassbender will continue a 16-year-long curse involving David Fincher's movies and the Academy Awards.
Fassbender is also no stranger to missing out on an Oscar win. He previously received nominations for his performances in 12 Years a Slave and Steve Jobs but lost both, to Jared Leto and Leonardo DiCaprio, respectively. Even if Fassbender is nominated for The Killer, he'll likely be up against DiCaprio again, for Killers of the Flower Moon, plus Oppenheimer's Cillian Murphy.
