For those of us who’ve been wanting for Guy Ritchie to return to doing Brit gangster movies again, well.. sorry, fellas but it just ain’t happening anytime soon because Deadline said the director of Sherlock Holmes franchise has agree do direct THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E. for WB
This is the project that Steven Soderbergh exited because he and the studio could not come to an agreement over casting and budgets, and this is the same project that George Clooney dropped as well.
