Why Fans Think Channing Tatum Will Return as Gambit in X-Men or Solo MCU Movie

As a long-time Marvel fan who grew up watching Channing Tatum grace our screens as Gambit, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and anticipation at the prospect of his return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I remember the electrifying chemistry between him and Ryan Reynolds in ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’, a bond that left us all craving for more.


Ryan Reynolds’ latest remarks about Marvel possibly continuing to focus on Channing Tatum’s character, Gambit, as mentioned in a recent interview, have sparked much enthusiasm among fans. This has led many to speculate whether Gambit might reappear in a standalone movie or the anticipated MCU X-Men venture. Previously, Tatum’s Gambit was seen alongside Deadpool and Wolverine in the film “Deadpool & Wolverine,” where he assisted the main characters in escaping the Void and thwarting Cassandra Nova.

Here is what we have learned on Tatum’s Gambit’s return.

Will Channing Tatum return in a solo MCU Gambit movie?

Channing Tatum is not confirmed to return in a solo MCU Gambit movie, as of writing.

During a chat on Entertainment Weekly’s Awardist podcast, Ryan Reynolds shared that Marvel has shown great interest in Channing Tatum as Gambit. However, he admitted he was unsure about the specific plans Marvel had for this character. As a result, it’s speculated that Marvel may be contemplating a Gambit movie or potentially a series on Disney+.

Earlier, Reynolds commended Channing Tatum’s portrayal of characters in Deadpool and Wolverine on Instagram, expressing his desire for seeing more of those roles from Tatum.

According to Tatum himself, he’s quite optimistic about the possibility of a standalone Gambit movie. He stated this to Variety, saying, “I certainly hope so.” He then added humorously, “May it be so, from your words to God’s ears. Help bring it into reality, friend.” Ultimately, he emphasized that whether or not a solo Gambit film will materialize depends on Bob Iger and Kevin Feige now.

Will Channing Tatum’s Gambit return in MCU’s X-Men movie?

Tatum’s Gambit is not confirmed to return in the MCU’s rumored X-Men movie either as of now.

Given Marvel’s apparent affinity for this character, it’s plausible they might incorporate him into their upcoming project. Additionally, there’s a chance he could be featured in other collaborative or team-up movies such as the hypothetical Avengers: Secret Wars.

People who didn’t get a chance to see Channing Tatum as Gambit in theaters can look forward to watching it from home very soon, as Deadpool and Wolverine are set to premiere on Disney Plus on November 12th.
