    Netflix has released the first trailer for “Mank,” filmmaker David Fincher’s first feature directorial effort since 2014, which arrives on the streamer on December 4th following a theatrical run in November.

    The story sees 1930s Hollywood is reevaluated through the eyes of scathing social critic and alcoholic screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz (Gary Oldman) as he races to finish the screenplay of :Citizen Kane” for Orson Welles.

    Gary Oldman, Amanda Seyfried, Lily Collins, Arliss Howard, Tom Pelphrey, Sam Troughton, Ferdinand Kingsley, Tuppence Middleton, Tom Burke, and Charles Dance lead the cast.

    Same. He's gotta be one of the top 7 directors in the past 30 years, probably Top 3 for me.

    A-list actors with A-list talent, but the premise seems...meh, to me.

    Yeah, the trailer doesn't exactly scream "watch me."
