David Ayer was intended to replace the previously-attached Antoine Fuqua, who departed due to schedule issues with The Equalizer 2.
After only being attached to the film for less than two months, Variety is reporting that David Ayer is still attached to play the title gangster.
The next film for Ayer will be his Netflix fantasy film Bright, starring Will Smith, Joel Edgerton and Noomi Rapace, which will drop on the streaming service in December.
