Clip of Cunning Deadpool and Wolverine Hints at Impending Return of Gambit
Life in the Multiverse: Gambit's Second Act
The long-awaited reunion of fan-favorites Deadpool and Wolverine didn't disappoint, especially with Channing Tatum stepping into the shoes of the explosive card master - Gambit. Yet, the melodrama of his supposed sacrifice for a doomed universe was short-lived, as Tatum's Gambit makes a surprising comeback.
Ryan Reynolds, the man behind the Deadpool mantle, recently shared a tantalizing clip on his X/Twitter account showcasing a seemingly immortal Gambit sauntering over the presumed remains of Toad and Psylocke, before winking at the camera. The cheeky caption and background music suggest that Gambit might continue his multiverse adventures.
In a follow-up tweet, Reynolds confirmed that a version of the sequence is actually featured in the film, hinting at the possibility of Gambit's return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). This isn't the first time Tatum has expressed his desire to play Gambit again. During an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, he declared that he would "do terrible things" to make a Gambit movie happen.
Although there's no solid word on a Gambit movie or Disney+ series, the prospect of his return to the MCU is exciting. With his memetic surge in recent months and Reynolds' playful teasing, Gambit's future promises to be as unpredictable as ever.
Tatum's Gambit will be making an appearance in the highly anticipated Avengers: Doomsday, where he'll join forces with other X-Men characters from the Fox era such as Patrick Stewart's Professor X and Ian McKellen's Magneto. This marks a significant integration of Tatum's Gambit into the MCU amidst Doctor Doom's looming threat[1][2].
Fans are eager to see Tatum's portrayal of Gambit in a more serious light after his comedic role in Deadpool & Wolverine. Despite the aborted plans for a solo Gambit film, his return in Avengers: Doomsday offers an opportunity for Gambit to make his mark amongst the X-Men in the MCU[2]. The film is set to be released on May 1, 2026, and will be part of a larger X-Men reunion in the MCU[2].
Stay tuned for more updates on Marvel, Star Wars, Star Trek, DC Universe, and Doctor Who releases. Keep your eyes peeled for more tantalizing updates from Ryan Reynolds and the Marvel Cinematic Universe!
