After Rupert Wyatt decided to step down as director of the blockbuster Gambit , Fox , which set the premiere of the film on October 7, 2016 , began to actively look for a new director.According to The Hollywood Reporter , Doug Lyman is in the final stages of negotiations to lead the filming of Gambit . We previously reported that Fox has approached the director, but now, according to insiders, the signing of the agreement is almost done. The last time Lyman delighted viewers with a new work in 2014, when the sci-fi action film Edge of Tomorrow was released. Previously, the filmmaker has directed the films "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" and "The Bourne Identity", which won both box office and critical success. Recently, Lyman finished filming the crime drama Mena, starring Tom Cruise, about the drug business of the 80s.  Wyatt left the director's chair in September, arguing that he preferred another project to Gambit . However, insiders argue that the true reason for the director's departure is creative differences with the studio. Channing Tatum will star in the upcoming blockbuster, and Lea Seydoux will be his on-screen partner. The Topic of Article: Doug Lyman is ready for Gambit. |
