Channing Tatum<\/strong> tells MTV News<\/a> that while he and longtime X-Men producer Lauren Shuler Donner are on board with the idea of him playing GAMBIT<\/a>, there’s nothing official just yet. \u201cCreatively, we\u2019re starting to chug forward. Obviously there\u2019s nothing [official]. There are only conversations and dreams right now, really,” he says when asked about joining the blockbuster mutant franchise. “I\u2019ve been pretty vocal about wanting to be the part of Gambit for a very long time. It\u2019s a weird, pinching-myself moment that we\u2019re even having the conversation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Director Bryan Singer previously said that he was considering adding the character (along with a younger Nightcrawler) for 2016’s X-MEN: APOCALYPSE, but it appears that Tatum has something else in mind, saying \u201cWe\u2019ve talked about it being a standalone [film], first, and actually trying to change the \u2018hero, superhero movie.\u2019 Because Gambit is not your typical hero. He\u2019s a thief. He walks on the gray. I\u2019m hoping we can change it a little bit, and then ultimately feather into the other ones.”<\/p>\n

Do you think Tatum can pull off playing Remy Le’Beau?<\/em><\/p>\n
