Other notable films he has directed include Se7en (1995), Fight Club (1999), The Social Network (2010) and Gone Girl (2014).
Fincher has been nominated for two Academy Awards for Best Director (for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and The Social Network) and has won a Golden Globe Award and a BAFTA.
