Se7en/Trivia: Difference between revisions

** An alternate ending revealed that {{spoiler|John Doe did not murder Mills' wife, only substituting a lookalike. Mills then has no justification for killing an unarmed man, and will spend the rest of his life in jail. Somerset decides not to retire, and instead gives his country house to Mills' wife and her unborn baby}}. Another alternate ending features [[Bloodstained-Glass Windows|a dramatic shootout in a burning, dilapidated church]] {{spoiler|in which Mills dies}}, and yet ''another'' had {{spoiler|''Somerset'' killing John Doe in order to save Mills from becoming "Wrath." In the finished film, the foreshadowing that Somerset will have to actually shoot his gun (or use his knife) is kept, but nothing comes out of it with the ending changed.}}

** When the movie was first pitched to execs, they had the screenwriter revise the film so it would be more marketable (happier ending, not as bleak etc.). But when they sent the script to David Fincher, they accidentally sent him the original script instead of the revised one. Before they could correct their mistake, David Fincher refused to make this film if the revised script was used.
