Remember that Gears of War movie Netflix was working on? Nobody would blame you if you didn't. The streaming service and purveyor of aggressively mediocre action flicks nabbed the film rights for Microsoft's cover-shooter series way back in November 2022. The plan was to lead with a feature film and then segue into an animated series, but little has been heard about the project since the rights acquisition.
Now though, the project might finally have a director. According to the Hollywood Reporter, David Leitch is in negotiations to helm the project, though the deal has not yet been signed off with the traditional chainsaw duel.
