Rise of the Planet of the Apes
and The Gambler director Rupert Wyatt has left Gambit, the X-Men spinoff starring
Channing Tatum in the titular role and Léa Seydoux as Bella Donna Bourdreaux.
According to Wyatt his
decision to drop out of the movie was because Fox moved the beginning of
production from November to March, which coincided with another project he is
working on, though Deadline says they have heard some rumors concerning the
script and budget.
"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."
A replacement should be announced
sooner rather than later if Gambit is to hit theaters on October 7, 2016.
