Channing Tatum confirmed to play Gambit by X-Men producer Lauren Shuler Donner!
“Deadpool, Yes. X-Force is fascinating. We love X-Force – it allows us to be a little grittier. And also Gambit.”
“It is Channing, yes. Yes… He’s a rogue. He’s a rascal, just like Remy LeBeau. And he can handle the action, we know that. And he’s got a really good heart. So I think he’ll be great for Gambit and he’s a Southerner too! He’s not from New Orleans but he’s a Southerner and he understands that world.”
