Netflix's animated Magic: The Gathering series is headed for the graveyard. The project based on the popular collectible card game has been cancelled, according to star Brandon Routh. Routh revealed the news to Collider's Steve Weintraub during an interview for his new movie Ick at the Toronto International Film Festival.

Routh was set to voice Gideon Jura, a noble Planeswalker and one of the card game's most famous heroes. Although it had been fully written and recorded, the series dropped off the radar around the same time that Netflix cancelled a number of in-development animation projects, including adaptations of Bone, Wings of Fire, Antiracist Baby, Pashmina, and a Jamie Hewlett-directed Gorillaz film.

Although Magic: The Gathering won't be happening, Routh can be seen in Joseph Kahn's horror comedy Ick. Routh stars alongside Mena Suvari and Malina Weissman as a high school science teacher who tries to prevent his small town from being overrun by the monstrous, malevolent plant of the same name.
