Notes

This was due to the Fox buyout that destroyed the movie 'Gambit' according to Channing Tatum

Channing Tatum is linked to Gambit by a tragic story. The mutant, who is among the most popular of the X-Men group, has endured a a bumpy journey in troubled Hollywood and is always connected to the actor from the Class Departed.


For 10 years, Tatum tried to make him a real-life character for a film (either solo or as a supporting character) and then in the year 2019, he gave up. And he was traumatized: "I turned off my Marvel machine. I've not been able to see any of the movies, "he explained recently. "I loved that character and he was very sad. It was like losing a close friend."

Every now and then Tatum thinks about what transpired and, in Vanity Fair Tatum has pointed out the main reason Gambit did not come to fruition. The film will premiere on February 10, The US Magic Mike's Last Dance with Steven Soderbergh directing, and in parallel with announcing that he is making an adaptation film based on Ghost Tatum, he has blamed the purchase of Fox at the hands of Disney in 2019 , which meant that was his spin-off from X-Men was canceled completely.

"It was canceled by Disney through Marvel when they bought Fox," he says. "I think the tone of the film that we wanted to see was quite different from what they had in mind or, you know, what they might be waiting to see what they will do without us."

"We dabble in occasionally but we need to let it go spiritually, emotionally and mentally," Tatum pledges. It all started when the actor was about to play Gambit for X-Men: The Last Stand however Brett Ratner's team changed their minds at final minute. The actor then missed another opportunity to embody him for X-Men Origins.

Wolverine three years after in 2009. Magic Mike's Last Dance full move was Taylor Kitsch who replaced him in a film that was a total disaster for the critics and left the door open for Tatum to attempt to make progress. Tatum's film. During back-to-back production hell, Lea Seydoux and Lizzy Caplan came to be scouted for co-star roles.

While Gore Verbinski and Doug Liman could have directedthe film, they decided against ending the project. Frustrated, at the end of the last decade, Tatum proposed to 20th Century Fox to direct the film himself , along with producer Reid Carolin, and it was at that point that the studio decided to pull the film: it happened within two months of Disney purchased Fox. Tatum and Reid did indeed could direct each other in the film of last year. Dog. An exciting journey. Now both have to give up the Gambit film for dead.
