Sequels "Gambit" starring Channing Tatum? - Part 4

[StarLord]

Isn't Tatum still attached?

 

[Thorne]

As far as I know yes, I just wanted to speculate on someone better.

 

[Jh7058622]

We ALL would like to but rn it's a expectation vs. Reality dilemma.

 

[psylockolussus]

Assuming Gambit ever gets used again does anyone else think Boyd Holbrook would make a good fit. I think he has the swagger down, and has shown some really good range.

And no I don't think at this point someone having already appeared in another superhero movie, even in the same extended franchise, is really a problem.

I've only seen him in that Wolverine movie so I don't think he looks the part.

Isn't Tatum still attached?

Yes. He is attached.

 

[HBarnill]

Tatum has wanted this for so long. He even auditioned for X3. He’s proven to be a very capable actor in recent years. I’m glad he’s still devoted to this.

 

[psylockolussus]

I doubt Disney would keep him once they got the rights Xpecially if they think he doesn't look the part.

I don't see why they wouldn't keep him. He has a lead actor's name value and wants to do it. And the actors seems to trump the directors in the MCU

 

[psylockolussus]

Well first of all, what makes you think the casting people of Marvel Studios wouldnt want their own say on should play Gambit. Fox cast Channing, not Marvel Studios. So they have zero obligation to hire him as Gambit.

Channing has been pushing this for years and is aging out of the role. I would hope when Gambit makes his onscreen MCU debut, he isnt played by a 40 something. The character really should be closer to the mid 20s range. And I dont think Tatum is that big a name that he'd be kept regardless of where they want to go with the character. He's replaceable

 

[Neptune]

Agreed! Get Tatum outta here!

 

[psylockolussus]

And gambit into the mcu's X-Men!

 

[Purplevit]

Tatum deserves to be Gambit. I am sure he will be a great Gambit.

 

[Neptune]

Why does he deserve to play Gambit?

 

[Ipodman]

This movie is never getting made at this rate.

Well, it took 10 years for Venom

 

[Havok83]

Tatum deserves to be Gambit. I am sure he will be a great Gambit.

he can go fund himself a 10 minute Youtube short

 

[GuestStar2004]

Well something similar helped to get Deadpool off the ground.

I would expect Taylor Kitsch in Deadpool 3 before Gambit is made .

Highly underrated. We already had a good Gambit. Ironically he and RR were the best parts of Wolverine Origins

Absolutely.

 

[x-er]

Why does he deserve to play Gambit?

Supposedly because he used to pretend to throw Gambit cards around as a kid.

And he's from New Orleans, right? I might be wrong.

Channing Tatum was raised in Mississippi, but the pro sports teams from New Orleans would have been the local go to location for the fans and not Atlanta

 

[Purplevit]

Why does he deserve to play Gambit?

Because he was committed to that role for years. He is developing it and believes in this project. And never gave up on it.

He is a fan. And I am sure that he will be a good Gambit.

 

[psylockolussus]

Why does he deserve to play Gambit?

Being a fan isn't enough. His passion isn't even enough to get someone direct this and fully commit.

Mark Steven Johnson is a Daredevil fan. Paul Giamatti is a Rhino fan. Halle Berry is an Eartha Kitt fan. Oscar Isaac is an Apocalypse fan. Kinberg is a Dark Phoenix fan.

How did those turn out?
