Gambit – how it can go down

From the looks of it (and keeping in mind that Channing Tatum denied appearing in X-Men: Apocalypse even if only in a cameo), Gambit may just be another origin story. Just like Channing Tatum said a while ago. And, pretty much like the first Wolverine film, it will also deal with the character finding his way as a superhero, or at least as an antihero, just like we like our mutants (we even have a mad scientist, so to speak, doing his business on the main character, as well as the tragic love story).

If it is so, then we don’t really know what to make of this. We can only hope that it will be way better than the movie from which it apparently takes its cues.

UPDATE: THE WRAP REPORTS THAT THE MOVIE IS IN BIG TROUBLE, WITH CHANNING TATUM MOST LIKELY SET TO LEAVE THE PROJECT, OVER CREATIVE DIFFERENCES (WE’LL CALL THIS THIS WAY FOR THE MOMENTS)

UPDATE TO THE UPDATE: CHANNING TATUM HAS FINALLY CLOSED THE DEAL. SO, AFTER ALL, HE WILL PORTRAY GAMBIT!

More troubles for Gambit, on the next page!
