Craig Gillespie

MGM has decided to take on the incredible story of GameStop's meteoric rise on the stock market, and the studio has tapped an impressive director to helm the project, per Deadline. Craig Gillespie (Cruella, I, Tonya) is set to oversee the film, which is based on the book The Antisocial Network by Ben Mezrich.

This week, the live-action Disney hit Cruella was released on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD. In honor of its release, ComicBook.com had the chance to chat with the film's director, Craig Gillespie, who spoke about the movie's special features and gave some teases about the upcoming Cruella sequel. In addition to helming Cruella, Gillespie also directed the Oscar-winning film I, Tonya and recently wrapped production on the upcoming Hulu limited series, Pam & Tommy. The stories of Tonya Harding and Pamela Anderson & Tommy Lee aren't Gillespie's only biographical works. He'll also soon be directing a limited series about Mike Tyson titled Iron Mike. During the interview, ComicBook.com asked Gillespie what draws him to the real-life stories of controversial figures.
