Channing Tatum's
Gambit has an awesome connection to his comic book origins that could lead to his solo movie. Few of Deadpool & Wolverine many highlights could compete with Tatum, who stole the show as Remy LeBeau, fulfilling his dream of playing the character since the Gambit movie was announced in 2014. That movie never happened, but the MCU finally redeemed his scrapped film, and he proved why he deserves to play the role. While the film made fun of his Cajun accent, he nailed the delivery and showed off his card skills in a few excellent action moments.
Gambit's appearance has reignited demand for a movie starring Tatum in the titular role. The character could return in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday or Secret Wars, but Marvel has no future plans for a Gambit movie. However, Tatum still wants it to happen, and there could be a way for Marvel to make this film while keeping Gambit's options open for the X-Men. Gambit makes a light comic book reference in Deadpool & Wolverine that perfectly establishes a solo movie Marvel could explore.
Gambit's Nickname In Deadpool & Wolverine Suggests He Has A Connection To His Past Gambit uses a nickname he wouldn't get from living in the Void Close Gambit's debut in Deadpool & Wolverine occurs alongside Wesley Snipes' Blade and Jennifer Garner's Elektra as they introduce themselves to Wade Wilson and Logan. Gambit's first line is "The name's Remy LeBeau, Le Diable Blanc, but you can call me The Gambit." Le Diable Blanc means The White Devil in French, a name given to him before he joined the X-Men. Remy grew up in New Orleans and was a member of the Thieves Guild, who gave him the nickname due to Gambit's red eyes, which were not a part of his design in the film.
Related Deadpool & Wolverine Deleted Scene Raises A Huge Question About What Happened To Gambit & Channing Tatum's MCU Future The release of a new deleted scene from Deadpool & Wolverine has raised huge questions about Channing Tatum"s future as Gambit in the MCU.
1 What makes this line significant is that Gambit says he thinks he was born in the Void, the dystopian setting where the TVA sends things it purges from various timelines. If Gambit isn't sure where he came from, it wouldn't make sense for him to have that nickname. He also has a strong Cajun accent, suggesting he must come from New Orleans or something similar in another timeline.
These details suggest there might be more to Gambit's past than meets the eye, and it could be worth exploring Gambit's life before he ended up stuck in the Void.
The TVA Could Have Erased Gambit's Memory Before Putting Him In The Void The TVA has a history of wiping people's memories
One reason Gambit could have his nickname and accent without remembering where he came from could be the TVA. The agency can wipe people's memories and could have done the same to Gambit, so he loses connection to his previous life. In Loki, all the TVA's employees were grabbed from timelines throughout the multiverse, but had their memories wiped so they couldn't remember their former identities. However,
they still have strong connections to their past.
Mobius was a jet ski salesperson in his timeline, and while he doesn't remember this, he still has a fascination with the vehicle and wants to drive one. Gambit could be going through something similar where he's unable to remember his life outside the Void, but he still feels connected to his Louisiana background. The film jokingly says he was born in the Void since his movie never happened, but there could be more to it.
A Prequel Movie Is A Perfect Way To Fulfill Channing Tatum's Wish A Gambit solo movie could give Marvel and Tatum exactly what they want Close After Disney acquired 21st Century Fox, the studio scrapped the Gambit movie, which had been in development hell for a long time. Tatum is still desperate to make his Gambit movie happen after Deadpool & Wolverine, and he told Jimmy Fallon he would "kill kittens" to make this movie happen. He says he talked to Kevin Feige about it, but the Marvel president isn't sure how it would fit with his current plans.
"Kevin Feige runs Marvel. I love him so much. He literally was like, 'Look, I love Gambit. I just don't know how to do it right now. Like, I don't know how he fits into what we're doing. And so I need to, like -- I need to have a minute to, like, figure it out.' And, like, now we've sort of cracked a little bit of the code, and hopefully..."
Exploring Gambit's origins would allow Marvel to have its cake and eat it too. The studio could give Tatum the Gambit movie he's always wanted while still keeping the door open for its upcoming X-Men plans. While Tatum is a great Gambit, he is 44, and Marvel may want to start its X-Men with a younger cast. However, a
Gambit solo film could give audiences more of Tatum's performance while
familiarizing the character with casual audiences who may not know about him. This is a way both parties can get exactly what they want.
