David Fincher has found his next project. The Fight Club director, who is currently hard at work on serial killer thriller Zodiac, will re-team with Paramount to direct Torso.
Based on the graphic novel for Brian Michael Bendis, the story follows real-life Federal agent Eliot Ness (as seen in The Untouchables) after he finally puts Al Capone away and moves to Cleveland. He promised to clean up the town, but the place is shattered by a series of horrific slaying known as the Torso Murders. Ehren Kruger is about to start work on the script.
