Suicide Squad director David Ayer will no long helm the upcoming Scarface reboot from Universal, Variety reports.
According to the publication, scheduling conflicts between Universal studios and Ayer’s work on upcoming Netflix film Bright, starring Will Smith, forced the split.
Scarface has previously featured on the big screen twice, the first being in 1932, with Howard Hawks and Richard Rosson starring.
Previously, Antoine Fuqua — who recently released The Magnificent Seven — was attatched to the long-delayed project, but left after scheduling conflicts with the sequel to The Equalizer.
