Checkmate: David Fincher, is attached to direct Columbia Pictures' Pawn Sacrifice; A Bobby Fischer biopic that will follow the chess champion through his victory over Boris Spassky in 1972. At least that's what 'Variety' says.
 
We hope Fincher does it Benjamin Button style; With Fischer starting life as a crazy anti-Semite, and aging backwards into an adorable 13-year-old prodigy.
