After making its debut as Gambit in the Marvel Cinematic Universe through Deadpool & Wolverine, Channing Tatum looks at the chances of potentially coming back.
Screen Rant recently spoke with Tatum for his new movie Blink Twice and had a chance to discuss a bit about the actor’s Gambit appearance in Deadpool & Wolverine. When asked if he thinks that he will be back as Gambit anytime soon, Tatum shared the following:
I’m not going to bore everybody with what we were trying to do with our [Gambit] film, but it was an origin story that we were doing. We were trying to make something that actually would be in the world and could play with Deadpool. You put Deadpool in a lot of scenes with other MCU characters, and he could possibly just make fun of them the entire time. But he wouldn’t, because Ryan loves comics and he loves Marvel.
I would do pretty much any version of Gambit, to be honest. I think we will, hopefully. At least I’m talking to Kevin, and I just want to be in any MCU stuff. To get to dress up again as him would be enough. I felt like [Deadpool & Wolverine] was truly a make-a-wish sort of thing that my friend did for me. It was like, “Come in, and I’ll let you dress up as your favorite superhero character.” I was having an out-of-body experience just standing next to Hugh. It was like, “Oh, my God, there’s Wolverine. There’s Blade! Elektra – everyone’s here, this is wild.”
Your mouth to God’s ears, friend. Help me will it into existence.
Blink Twice
opens in theaters on August 23.
