David Fincher bristles at being labeled a perfectionist. He makes an unconvincing case in the shadow of his filmography, which includes “Fight Club,” “Zodiac” and “The Social Network” among several other films marked by a meticulous and unerring technical precision.

Ever the perfectionist, he and a team got to work on a new restoration of the film for its 30th anniversary re-release. This weekend the restored “Seven” will play on IMAX screens for the first time in the U.S. and Canada, and on Jan. 7, the 4K UHD home video version will be available as well.

Director David Fincher recently clarified a long-standing question about the contents of “the box” in Se7en while discussing the film’s 30th anniversary. Speaking in an interview, Fincher directly addressed rumors of a prosthetic head being used in the iconic scene.
