While doing press interviews for White House Down, Channing Tatum said he loves Gambit and can even pull off the ragin' cajun's signature accent because he's from the New Orleans area. Well, it looks like Tatum could have the opportunity to step into the X-Man's boots. In Empire's X-Men: Days of Future Past issue, X-Men produce Lauren Shuler Donner says she's pushing for Channing Tatum to star in a movie all about Remy LeBeau and now it's just a matter of convincing the studio.

Two words, f*** OFF!

Channing Tatum is terrible. Why people want him in their movie is totally incomprehensible.
 
X-Men Origins: Wolverine star Taylor Kitsch has voiced support for Channing Tatum’s Gambit hopes.Kitsch, who played Gambit in the critically-panned spinoff/prequel, said in a newspaper interview that while he would reprise the Gambit role “under the right circumstances,” he has no problem with the idea of Tatum taking over the character.“If he does it, good on him,” he told the Chicago Tribune. “He’ll kill it. It’s such cool character. Whoever plays him will be a lucky guy.”

“I’m not going to be like ‘Oh my God, why don’t I get to play him?’ If it’s meant to be, it’s meant to be,” Kitsch added. “And if not, I’ll move on. If they cast [Tatum], I wish him nothing but the best. I hope he kicks the [crap] out of it.”
