The original story that Screenrant credited as their source from ThatHashtagShow says that the execs were "buzzing" and set a shooting date window in as little as three months. That means several things on a technical level, but essentially it means they have a high confidence that the script is good enough that they can find some director and stick him/her on the project. Setting a window that close costs money, and they wouldn't risk that without a high level of confidence.That may or may not be a good thing. Who knows how much control the director will have over their own film. But it means the gears are moving very quickly with lots of meetings are taking place to see who's interested. It's funny, but with the Vox Machina kickstarter being the hot thing right now, they are likely to land the key people they need because Hollywood works like that.The biggest unknown is what happens if a big director steps in. Someone with clout could ask them to push back the shooting date.</blockquote>
