“He’s been throwing cards at my face all day for the past three weeks – ever since he figured out he might play Gambit,” says ’22 Jump Street’ co-star Jonah Hill to Access Hollywood about GAMBIT lead candidate, Channing Tatum. “He’s literally just been flicking playing cards in my face.”
Tatum’s card throwing is from his childhood.
“I actually do throw cards,” Channing says, laughing. “I used to throw cards around the house all the time when I was a kid, because – I’m not a big X-Men head, like, I don’t know everything about every single character, and I probably don’t know as much as like the Gambit heads do – but he was my favorite,” Channing said. “I just love him.”
