I don’t know how to feel about this. I loved Fight Club the way you love an eccentric uncle; it was weird and it stank of smoke and made people feel uncomfortable, but it was awesome. The fact that it’s director, David Fincher wants to revisit it is great; the whole ‘musical’ angle is where I start panicking.
I mean, don’t get me wrong – there are good musicals, and there are good musicals that are gritty and strange in ways a lot like Fight Club; either way this plays out, it’s not like you’re going to see Tyler Durden belting out Cabaret. But what was central to Fight Club was Edward Norton’s deadpan narration – and I don’t know that that’s translatable in song. But, hell, there’s a Spider-Man musical out there too, so maybe this isn’t altogether surprising.
Fincher said he’d be trying to put Fight Club: The Musical together with Trent Reznor, with whom he also collaborated on The Social Network – if that tells you anything.
