Channing Tatum Briefly Talks About GAMBIT With A Magazine
In the next issue of GQ Magazine, G.I. JOE: Retaliation actor and future Gambit Channing Tatum (very) briefly talks to GQ about why he loves the character. Find out what he has to say after the jump.
After recently being announced as the next Gambit in X-Men: Apocalypse and a solo film to follow, GQ Magazine asked Tatum why he loved the character he soon will portray.
“[Gambit was] the only superhero I really followed.… He was the most real to me: smoking, drinking, women-loving, thief. He just looked cool to me. I've always loved him. And obviously he’s Cajun.”
X-Men: Days of Future Past comes to theaters May 23. X-Men: Apocalypse, which will introduce Tatum’s Gambit to the X-Men films, is scheduled for release on May 23, 2016.

Egotistical, witty, eccentric, crude, unorthodox, dynamic, disappointing, and even bothersome are words that accurately describe the one and the only MrBlackjack. Whether it's going on another ego stroking rant or demonstrating the love between Gal Gadot and myself, there is and never will be an exact process of guessing what I'm going to do next. Information regarding myself is on a need to know basis, although I shall spare some personal information. A few of my film favorites include Almost Famous, The Wolf of Wall Street, Evil Dead II, Clerks, and The Big Lebowski. X-Men: Days of Futures Past, The Dark Knight, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Iron Man, and Batman Begins make the list of my favorite comic book movies. Some quotes to live by include "Cinema is a matter of what's in the frame and what's out." (Martin Scorsese), "I always tell the girls, never take it seriously, if ya never take it seriously, ya never get hurt, ya never get hurt, ya always have fun, and if you ever get lonely, just go to the record store and visit your friends." (Almost Famous), and "I try to eat healthy. But sometimes though, I eat cheeseburgers. That's good for the soul." (Gal Gadot).
