People who know me, know that I am a man. And, as a man, I am obligated to admit when I am wrong…damn rules. Anyway, you may remember with your memory that Bryan Singer ran into a bit of a scheduling snag regarding him directing the upcoming X-MEN: FIRST CLASS movie. I figured he would end up doing the movie anyway because money is awesome, but I was wrong…about the directing, not the money…money is still awesome.
According to the jerks over at the Hollywood Reporter, Matthew Vaughn has been signed to direct in place of Bryan Singer who has been demoted to producer. There is also a release date now; that being June 3, 2011.
Now, I don’t know Matthew Vaughn from a hole in the ground, but I do know that I haven’t met many holes in grounds that were able to direct blockbuster motion pictures, some arthouse stuff sure, but that’s a different ballgame. Here’s hoping he rises above.
