With the astounding success of The Queens Gambit during COVID, and the number of active chess players now over 400 million in the world, why are there no chess themed movies? This seems like a very big untapped market. Are these cartoon movies they make now really that wonderful, or are movie producers simply being stubborn about this? 🤔
