Legendary Entertainment and Hasbro Entertainment announced last year that they were teaming up to build a live-action film and television universe based on the card game franchise "Magic: The Gathering." The companies plan to produce a series of movie and TV adaptations, with Matt Johnson, the buzzy filmmaker behind "Tony" and "Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie," set to direct the first feature.

More than a year later, the first movie's cast is finally beginning to take shape. Entertainment scooper Daniel Richtman first reported on his Patreon page that Maya Hawke had been tapped for the film's leading female role. Deadline subsequently confirmed her casting.
Deadline also reported that "Magic: The Gathering" is being developed as an ensemble film with multiple lead roles. While the other parts are expected to go through auditions, Hawke received a direct offer from the producers.
