Development on a "Magic: The Gathering" movie is continuing, with Canadian filmmaker Matt Johnson in pole position to direct, according to @Deadline. Johnson has solid indie roots, having co-created the "Nirvana the Band the Show" web series and low-budget films "The Dirties" and "Operation Avalanche" before hitting the relative big time with the well-received "BlackBerry" in 2023.
