Matthew Vaughn in talks to direct Flash Gordon

April 15, 2015 by Gary Collinson

It looks like 20th Century Fox has found a director for its Flash Gordon reboot, with The Hollywood Reporter revealing that Matthew Vaughn (X-Men: First Class, Kingsman: The Secret Service) is in talks with the studio about helming the film.

The new Flash Gordon has been in development at Fox for around a year now, with Star Trek 3 screenwriters J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay penning the script from a treatment by George Nolfi (The Adjustment Bureau), who is producing alongside John Davis.

Created in 1934 by Alex Raymand, Flash Gordon previously hit the big screen back in 1980, with Sam J. Jones starring as the adventurer and Queen providing the soundtrack.
