Channing Tatum Ready to Be Gambit (X-Men)


Channing Tatum has confirmed via an AMA on Reddit that he will be taking on the role of X-Men character Gambit.

The Gambit solo film is set to be released on October 7, 2016. It will be directed by Rupert Wyatt (Rise of the Planet of the Apes).

"We finally found someone that I really do believe wants to make Gambit." Tatum said of Wyatt.

With a screenplay by Josh Zetumer  (RoboCop), Gambit will be produced by Tatum and his creative partner Reid Carolin.

Gambit will NOT appear in X-Men: Apocalypse, opening May 27, 2016.

What do you think? Do you think Channing Tatum can play a convincing enough Gambit?

I think he's got a 50/50 chance of pulling it off. We shall wait and see.
