Sequels The Gambit/Remy LeBeau Casting Thread

[kapea]

Marvel has promised us that X4 will center on Gambit...so who should it be? I vote for Zen Gesner (he starred in a tv series called "The Adventures of Sinbad", as well as showing up in films like "Shallow Hal" and "There's Something About Mary")...he looks so much like Gambit from the comics, it's scary!

To illustrate my point, may I present Zen Gesner as Remy LeBeau
aka "Le Diable Blanc"...

Zen Gesner in real life...

He does look like Gambit, but i've never heard of him before

 

[comicmovies4eva]

Never heard of him before either...he's got the look....just hope he not only has the talent, but knows Gambit's attitude and make him distinguishable from similiar characters.

 

[nightcrawler524]

He looks like gambit a little, but they could find someone else.

Wow he really looks like Gambit. I've seen him somewhere but i forget at the moment. I'd be happy if he would play him same goes for Holloway!
Good job.

jonathan rhys meyers as GAMBIT/LEBEAU:

 

[Dark Beast]

Viggo Mortensen would be awesome.
I know you all will say: he's too old. But, it would still be cool.

Cool enough too change the charactre for (which they do all the time in the X-movies. For the better, I think).

 

[gambit_890]

jonathan rhys meyers as GAMBIT/LEBEAU:

No way!!

I think Viggo Mortensen would be great for the role, but gambit is suppost to go after rouge so I'm not sure that would work out (age). Unless they can find another girl for rouge, which I'm all for.

 

[Clobberin' Time]

Cillian Murphy, the guy who played Scarecrow in Batman Begins would be good.

 

[RoguishGurl]

I think Forbes March would make the perfect Gambit.

 

[Neptune]

No Zen Gesner! I really can't stand the guy's face.

 

[BT18]

If Fox/The Producers/the writers are gearing up for a Gambit-centric X-Men movie, they aren't going to cast as obscure an actor as most suggestions in this thread are. Atleast it's not likely if most of the name actors from the first 3 aren't returning.

I think someone who's been a lead in atleast one smaller movie, or someone who's been a non-bit-part, supporting actor in some big movie, is the most likely route.
