More trouble for the Gambit movie. Director Rupert Wyatt has exited the X-Men spin-off flick, but supposedly not for too bad of reasons. Unfortunately according to Wyatt, the new release date conflicts with other projects for the director, and now he must walk off this big project. I’m sure Fox will find another director soon for Gambit, but let’s hope the didn’t have much to do with the exit.
I was very much looking forward to working with my friend Channing and the team at Fox. but regrettably a push in the start date now conflicts with another project. I thank them for the opportunity, and I know that Gambit will make a terrific film.
