Edgar Wright explains why he turned down an offer from Simon Kinberg to direct the Channing Tatum-starring Gambit movie.
“He’s one of my favorite directors of all time and one of my favorite people, just a super great guy,” Kinberg said. “Obviously a cinephile… I’ve chased Edgar for ‘X-Men’ movies. I’ve chased him for literally every possible thing. We have talked about every movie.”
One project Kinberg specifically asked Wright to direct was the Gambit movie starring Channing Tatum, which ultimately never saw the light of day following several delays. Wright told /Film that he turned down the gig because he didn’t know much about Remy LeBeau. “Gambit wasn’t a character I knew too well,” Wright said. “He appeared after my time reading Marvels — roughly 1985 — 1990 or so. wasn’t one that I knew a lot about and hadn’t really read growing up, so it felt like it was someone else’s dream gig. Maybe he means more to people who watched the show? Which again, was after my time.
A number of directors came and left the project over the years, including Rupert Wyatt, Doug Liman, and Gore Verbinski. At one point, the movie had an official March 13, 2020, release date; however, Disney canceled the movie in 2019 after acquiring 21st Century Fox.Brandon Schreur has been writing about comics, movies, television shows, and all things pop culture for roughly five years. He's a lifelong cinephile who spends way, way too much money buying Blu-rays and trade paperbacks.
