Channing Tatum expressed his long-held desire to star in a solo Gambit film during an appearance on The Tonight Show, humorously stating he would go to extreme lengths, even 'kill kittens', to make it happen. After years of trying to produce a standalone Gambit movie, Tatum finally made his debut as the character in Deadpool & Wolverine, thanks to Ryan Reynolds' support. He reminisced about the challenges faced during the development of his solo project, which was halted when Fox was acquired by Disney. Tatum has since initiated discussions with Marvel's Kevin Feige about potentially reviving the Gambit project. While fans have responded positively to Tatum's portrayal, the future of Gambit within the Marvel Cinematic Universe remains uncertain. Tatum remains hopeful for more opportunities to reprise the role, calling his experience in Deadpool & Wolverine a 'make-a-wish' moment.
