Gambit Actor Channing Tatum Has Had Conversations With Marvel Studios About Reviving Project

As a gamer with a heart full of nostalgia and a shelf stacked high with comic book adaptations, I can’t help but feel a twinge of excitement at Channing Tatum‘s continued pursuit of bringing Gambit to life on the big screen. I remember waiting for years as Fox tried their hand at a Gambit movie, only to be met with disappointment. But then came the unexpected collaboration in Deadpool & Wolverine, and what a delight it was!


Channing Tatum continues to express his desire to star in a standalone Gambit film, and he’s recently made that clear to Marvel Studios. Known for his persistent efforts over the years to bring a Gambit movie to life with various production teams, Tatum finally got a taste of the role in the film Deadpool 2 & Wolverine. This movie featured multiple cameos, among them Wesley Snipes as Blade, a part he’s long expressed interest in reprising. Star Ryan Reynolds has publicly supported both actors getting their own spinoff films.

The celebrity expressed his optimism that the unprecedented success of Deadpool and Wolverine, shattering multiple box office records and poised to be the highest-earning X-Men movie, might pave the way for a fresh Gambit production.

As a long-time gaming enthusiast, I’ve made no secret of my desire for this dream to come true – for over a decade now, it’s been on my wishlist. Now, it rests with Bob Iger and Kevin Feige. All I can do is hope, cross my fingers, and keep my heart pounding in anticipation.

In the film, Channing Tatum donned a costume faithful to the comics’ original design and adopted a thick Cajun dialect that aligned with the character’s comic book origins. During the time Fox was producing a Gambit movie, viewers frequently teased that they weren’t convinced by Tatum’s ability to deliver an authentic accent. Opinions among spectators have been divided as to whether he aimed for a genuine (yet thick) accent or exaggerated it comically. However, many fans concur that they appreciated Tatum’s performance in the movie.

In the Marvel Studios movie titled “Deadpool & Wolverine,” Deadpool, played by Ryan Reynolds, will rewrite the storyline of the Marvel Cinematic Universe alongside Wolverine (Hugh Jackman). The cast also includes Matthew Macfadyen as Paradox, Emma Corrin as Cassandra Nova, and a return of several “Deadpool” veterans: Morena Baccarin as Vanessa Carlysle, Leslie Uggams as Blind Al, Karan Soni as Dopinder, Stefan Kapi?i? as Piotr Rasputin/Colossus, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Rob Delaney as Peter, and Lewis Tan as Shatterstar. Aaron Stanford is reprising his role as Pyro from the “X-Men” film series, while there are rumors that Jennifer Garner might come back as Elektra Natchios.

As a gaming enthusiast, I’d rephrase it like this:
