He briefly retreated back to directing commercials and music videos, including the video for the song “Love Is Strong” by The Rolling Stones in 1994, which won the Grammy Award for Best Music Video. Shortly, Fincher decided to make a foray back into film. He read Andrew Kevin Walker’s original screenplay for Seven (1995), which had been revised by Jeremiah Chechik, the director attached to the project at one point.

Following Seven, Fincher directed a music video for “6th Avenue Heartache” by The Wallflowers and went on to direct his third feature film, the mystery thriller The Game (1997), written by the duo John Brancato and Michael Ferris. Fincher also hired Seven screenwriter Andrew Kevin Walker to contribute and polish the script. Filmed on location in San Francisco, the story follows an investment banker, played by Michael Douglas, who receives an unusual gift from his younger brother (Sean Penn), where he becomes involved in a “game” that integrates with his everyday life, making him unable to differentiate between game and reality. Almar Haflidason of the BBC was critical of the ending, but praised the visuals—”Fincher does a marvelous job of turning ordinary city locations into frightening backdrops, where every corner turned is another step into the unknown”. Upon The Game’s release in September 1997, the film received generally favorable reviews but performed moderately at the box office. Sometime afterwards, The Game garnered enough reappraisal to be included as part of the Criterion Collection.
