The new David Fincher-helmed biopic “Mank” is almost here and today the movie’s social media account has released the poster for the effort which harkens back to one-sheets of the late 1930s and early 1940s.
Fincher’s late father Jack penned the script which follows chaotic and alcoholic screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz and his battles with Orson Welles during the making of “Citizen Kane”.
The ensemble cast includes Gary Oldman as Herman J. Mankiewicz, Amanda Seyfried as Marion Davies, Tom Burke as Orson Welles, Tuppence Middleton as Sara Mankiewicz, Lily Collins as Rita Alexander, Tom Pelphrey as Joseph Mankiewicz, Arliss Howard as Louis B. Mayer, and Charles Dance as infamous newspaper magnate William Randolph Hearst.
The project debuts in select theaters this November, and on Netflix December 4th.
