Well #@$# it. Any chance of Gambit getting another solo book is out the window now.

Christopher from Omega Underground kinda ok with that and says that the same situation with director happend to Deadpool 2, First Class and DOFP. He asumes that new director will be announced soon.[/size]He told:They would have covered their bases before an announcement like this hit the trades. I'm sure they've already met with people.[/color]

  He wants steven soderburgh, which would actually make sense.

Verbinski news is nuts. Expect a new Gambit director announced shortly as Fox is intent on sticking to that start date from what I've heard.

I've lost my enthusiasm over this film about a month ago. I'm almost 100% certain that the X-Men movies will be re-booted as soon as 2019-2020, which makes 'Gambit' almost pointless. 
Not saying this film won't be made. None of the articles have stated that, and Verbinski was in talks to direct it, not sure if it was ever official?
Personally I'd rather see Gambit introduced in an X-Men film, then again, we might have to wait 3-4 films for that to happen. So yeah, it's a strange situation...

Gambit is seeing its release date move from Feb. 14, 2019 to June 7, 2019. The Channing Tatum vehicle just lost its director  — Gore Verbinski exited Thursday — and the search is on for a replacement.


But studio insiders believe the project, which is described as having a heavy comedic tone as it revolves around a heist, will do better as a summer Marvel movie.

They're pretty deep in pre-production. Leitch was announced few weeks after Miller left Deadpool sequel. Expect news soon.


Additional Gambit note: Hearing Fox intends to bring the film to SDCC, so that's another reason I wouldn't expect any further delays.

Oh COME ON!!!

Ugh. 


I don't like Verbinski anyway but at this point I just want the damn movie made, although it's seeming less and less likely.  How long can they do this dance?  It's not really fair on fans. 


Maybe the whole thing does need a fresh slate?
