No more teases, below is the full Gone Girl trailer which debuted on yesterday’s Entertainment Tonight.

Fans of the book should prepare for a new ending. Author Gillian Flynn and director David Fincher have said that they worked out a completely new one  for the movie. About the experience, Flynn said, “There was something thrilling about taking this piece of work that I’d spent about two years painstakingly putting together with all its eight million LEGO pieces and take a hammer to it and bash it apart and reassemble it into a movie.”

Fincher who directed the English-language adaptation of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, expressed regrets about it, saying, “we may have been too beholden to the source material.”

This may bring a rush of people who want to read the book before the movie (yes, amazingly, it seems that there are a few who haven’t read it yet), so you may want to hold off on weeding copies. For those who need to replace worn out copies, the trade paperback and mass market paperback (both from RH/Broadway) arrive next week. The movie tie-in (RH/Broadway) is scheduled for August 26.

The movie hits theaters Oct. 3,

Note: You can also view the trailer on the Apple site.
