* DevelopmentHell: A reboot film has been in the works at Fox since 2010, with Breck Eisner, Creator/MatthewVaughn, and Julius Avery all having been tapped to direct at some point, only for them to leave for other pastures. In June 2019, Disney, who got the film rights as part of absorbing Fox, restarted production and made it an animated film, tapping Creator/TaikaWaititi to write and direct.
