Did Bryan Singer Just Confirm GAMBIT For X-MEN: APOCALYPSE Appearance?
Bryan Singer has Tweeted out a photo of him and Channing Tatum at the San Diego Comic-Con this past Saturday, and it appears as if the X-Men: Apocalypse director is hinting that the actor is set to appear as Gambit in the movie. Or is he? We'll let you decide after the jump...
In case you missed the text at the bottom of the image below because your eyes became transfixed on Channing Tatum's handsome mug, it reads: "Always wanted to work with this guy! ;) #XMen #Gambit". Is that an indication that Gambit will appear in X-Men: Apocalypse? It's already been rumoured that he will, and Bryan Singer must have know that ";)" and hashtags would cause some speculation! He could of course be referring to a future X-Men movie, but we're just going to have to wait and see. It really all just depends on what era Rupert Wyatt's Gambit movie is set in.
As well as returning cast members Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, and Nicholas Hoult, X-Men: Apocalypse will also introduce Alexandra Shipp, Sophie Turner, Tye Sheridan, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Lana Condor, Oscar Isaac, Ben Hardy, Olivia Munn, and a number of others. The movie is set to be released on May 27th, 2016. What do you think about the chances of a Gambit cameo?
