As a gamer who has spent countless hours immersed in the Marvel universe, I can’t help but feel a mix of anticipation and nostalgia with the introduction of Channing Tatum’s Gambit in the MCU. Having followed his journey since his initial audition for X-Men: The Last Stand back in 2006, it’s like seeing an old friend finally arrive at the party we’ve all been waiting for.
The introduction of “Deadpool & Wolverine” broadens the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), now encompassing characters from diverse Marvel realms, including the “Blade” realm, the X-Men universe from Fox, and even the initial Daredevil and Elektra films.
In the movie, many characters returned to play their previously established roles, but uniquely, Channing Tatum’s portrayal of Gambit was new and isn’t yet associated with any particular universe.
The actor’s association with Gambit stretches back almost two decades, starting from his tryout for X-Men: The Last Stand in 2006. Despite being eliminated from that movie, he was initially slated to reprise the character in X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009), but scheduling conflicts prevented him from doing so, resulting in Taylor Kitsch playing the role instead.
Currently, supporters are advocating for a standalone film featuring Gambit, however, given the ambiguity surrounding his character’s version, as explained in both _Deadpool & Wolverine_, incorporating him smoothly into the Marvel Cinematic Universe might prove difficult.
According to Screenrant’s interesting theory, elements from Gambit’s comic book background could be instrumental in shaping a standalone movie. The theory is based on hints such as Gambit’s nickname, “The White Devil,” and his statement about being born in the Void. These clues might indicate a more complex backstory that ties in with his comic origins, which predate his association with the X-Men. Notably, this nickname harks back to his early life in New Orleans and his involvement with the Thieves Guild before joining the X-Men.
The theory proposes that the TVA (Temporal Variance Authority) possibly wiping Gambit’s memory may account for his detachment from his past, opening up an intriguing storyline for a standalone film delving into his origins and self-discovery. This method could provide a chance to reconsider and incorporate the project into the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe), even after the initial cancellation of the solo movie following Disney’s purchase of Fox.
The actor has said they’ve talked about the movie with Iger and Feige, but added, “At this point, it’s up to fate.”
