Jacob Elordi has emerged as a fan-favorite pick to play Gambit in live-action, and this new artwork from 21x4 imagines the Euphoria breakout as the X-Men's Ragin' Cajun with a dark, X-Men '97-inspired twist.
The image gives Elordi Gambit's signature bandana, trench coat and glowing eyes, but with one side of his face faded into a skull. This is a reference to the character's death in episode 5 of the Disney+ animated series, "Remember It."
Gambit hasn't fared very well in live-action so far. Taylor Kitsch made a brief appearance as Remy LeBeau in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, and while he did a decent enough job with what he had to work with, it wasn't exactly a memorable debut.
Later, Channing Tatum was all set to play another take on the mutant hero in a solo Gambit movie, but the plug was pulled when Disney took over 20th Century Fox's assets.

After tremendous success with critics and general audiences, the Mad Max franchise is all set to return to the big screens with Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, the prequel to 2015’s Fury Road. And, as fans must have already come to know by now, the currently raging Hollywood hotshot Anya Taylor-Joy has replaced Charlize Theron for the iconic titular role of the imperator.
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.
While this decision was previously only accepted by fans because this film would see a younger version of the Furiosa we saw in Fury Road, it feels like Taylor-Joy has not only performed up to the mark but even surpassed many expectations. If anything, fans should brace themselves to be shocked, because Taylor-Joy can make you believe that Theron has returned to the saga!

The upcoming summer release of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, which stars Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth, is the next entry in George Miller and Byron Kennedy’s post-apocalyptic action film series Mad Max. Mad Max: Fury Road, which won an Oscar, Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, and The Road Warrior were the three subsequent flicks in the series after the 1979 release of the first movie.
However, it seems Taylor-Joy’s work on Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga didn’t attract as much attention as her covert marriage to Malcolm McRae, which took everyone by surprise. But now, it seems like the actress, 28, is making up for lost time with the perfect gift for her beloved husband after wrapping up filming for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

Deadpool & Wolverine… & Dogpool? Well, it most certainly seems like it, because Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine won’t be the only beast in the movie accompanying and changing Ryan Reynolds’ Wade Wilson, aka Deadpool’s, life. But while the inclusion of a four-legged creature into the storyline has fans’ support, what they don’t understand is the inclusion of this specific dog, as seen in the trailer.

Or, to put it even more simply, the inclusion of a dog that isn’t even handsome enough like a Golden Retriever. In fact, this question of fans is only valid, because, as it turns out, the dog is actually the ugliest dog in all of Britain. That said, there’s some good news for the fans wondering about this because Reynolds is here to clear all of those doubts with an incredibly thoughtful reason.

Gore Verbinski would seem to have hit a snag in his big-budget blockbuster career after his Lone Ranger movie for Disney became a notoriously bloated flop. However, he was able to return with a smaller directorial effort after that, with the suspense film A Cure for Wellness. It has been eight years since the release of A Cure for Wellness, and Verbinski returns from his hiatus to helm an action-adventure film with the humorous title Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die. The movie sports an impressive cast, including Sam Rockwell, Michael Peña, Haley Lu Richardson, Zazie Beetz and Juno Temple. The film has just started production on location in South Africa.
The description of the movie’s plot, according to Deadline, reads, “The film, written by Matthew Robinson (Love & Monsters), centers on a man from the future (Rockwell) who arrives at a diner in Los Angeles where he must recruit...

Several scoopers have reported the appearance of one crucial character from the original X-Men movies, specifically from Logan. It is reported that Dafne Keen’s Laura Kinney / X-23 will appear in the film alongside a bunch of other superheroes to fight Cassandra Nova’s league of supervillains. Keen herself has hinted at her potential role in the film in a recent interview.

Gambit is alive?! Well, it seems like it!
After being chopped from the superhit animated series X-Men ’97 (Spoilers For Whoever Still Hasn’T Watched It!) it sounds like the fan-favorite Remy LeBeau will soon be gracing fans’ eyes once again. Except that this time, he won’t be animated, but would be a live-action character played by Channing Tatum!
Gambit in the comics.
As magnificent of a surprise as this may be, fans will reportedly finally get a live-action appearance of the Ragin’ Cajun in the upcoming Deadpool & Wolverine. This comes after recent reports about the upcoming film which reveal that Tatum will, at last, get to play the character that was taken away from him almost a decade ago, and his role won’t be restricted to just a cameo either!

Even before the trailer for ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ was released we knew that several notable X-Men and characters from other Fox properties related to Marvel are going to make an appearance in the upcoming movie.
Garner’s Elektra was among the first cameos to be confirmed, she will be reprising her role for the first time since her standalone movie released in 2005. Following this confirmation, several sources reported that Dafne Keen will be reprising her role as X-23, and most recently, Hugh Jackman and Channing Tatum hinted at their social media profiles that the latter will finally get the chance to play Gambit, following the cancelation of character’s standalone project.
Plenty of fans assumed that all those cameos and variants would be there for the sake of fan service and nostalgia, which would make for quite the unpleasant experience and the repetition of last year’s ‘Flash.’ But,...

The recent Major Order in Helldivers 2 required players to defend 10 planets across the Terminid and Automaton sectors and the Helldivers 2 community came together to convince Game Master Joel to liberate Charon Prime if they liberate Martale as these two sectors are interlinked. Joel agreed and fans began their battle for something called Martale Gambit.
Helldivers 2
Although fans felt like they had everything under control, a community manager revealed that this Major Order was supposed to result in a loss as it was an attack from both factions. Now, the defense campaign on Charon Prime has ended while Martale was 94% liberated. Fans speculate that Joel diverting the attention from Charon Pride has something to do with the Illumniate’s arrival.
Is Joel taking away the attention of the Helldivers 2 community from Charon Prime to introduce the Illuminate?

Marvel Studios’ latest animated show, X-Men ’97 started where the original X-Men: The Animated Series left off. Bringing back the mutant superheroes back on our screens, the show has touched fans with a familiar style of storytelling, bringing major nostalgia, but also adding elements of today’s time. The writing has also been top-notch, which only added to the show, which has found critical acclaim alongside high ratings.

Some have called X-Men ’97 “woke” because of certain elements that have been added to it.

2024 wasn’t the first time Gambit met a tragic end in the pop culture zeitgeist as Channing Tatum’s unmade film also has an equally sad story. It is no secret that Tatum was set to star as Remy LeBeau / Gambit in a spin-off of Fox’s X-Men franchise. The film was reportedly deep in development until Disney acquired Fox.
Gambit as depicted in Marvel Comics
However, the project never came to fruition, and producer Simon Kinberg’s obsession with one director might be to blame. According to reports, Kinberg was keen on getting director Edgar Wright to helm the project. However, Wright ultimately did not sign on for the project which might have had unsaid ramifications on the Tatum-led film.

Ubisoft’s single-player Star Wars Outlaws will have a season pass, meaning players will have to pay more money to unlock a Jabba the Hutt mission.
Despite being a single-player affair, Ubisoft’s much-anticipated action sandbox Star Wars Outlaws will have a season pass. This is, as you’re probably aware, a polite term meaning that extra stuff is locked away behind a paywall.
In the case of Star Wars Outlaws, this extra stuff includes a mission featuring Jabba the Hutt – a character whose presence in the game has been heavily trailed since it was revealed last year.
On Ubisoft’s website, it plainly states that certain elements of the game – most prominently the Jabba’s Gambit mission – will only be accessible at launch for customers who buy the more expensive Gold or Ultimate editions. These cost £104.99 and £119.99 respectively.

As far as iconic franchises go, George Miller’s Mad Max films are right up there among Hollywood’s favorite film series. Similar to his namesake George Lucas and his brainchild Star Wars, Miller created the dystopian action series back in 1979 with Mel Gibson, which was followed by three successful sequels in the 80s.

X-Men ’97 was a treat for every Marvel fan. The show has successfully recreated the nostalgia, thanks to Marvel boss Kevin Feige who insisted the show must bring the original cast of Fox show, X-Men: The Animated Series. It makes sense as X-Men ‘97 was the continuation of the classic animated show in the ’90s.

After X-Men ’97 dropped its episodes on Disney+ as a continuation of the adventures of the X-Men from the legendary 90’s animated series, the show was greeted with good reviews. However, some fans appeared to nitpick things to bring up bizarre controversies. For instance, the absurd fashion choices of the flamboyant mutant Gambit.

Sparking culture wars after witnessing Gambit expose his midriff in a crop top, fans of the show not only criticized the costume choice but also began questioning the character’s sexuality. But, after the mutant’s fashion and sexuality became a controversial topic, the actor – A. J. LoCascio, who voiced the character, came out with the cheekiest response to the criticism.

The Ryan Reynolds starrer Deadpool & Wolverine is gearing up for release in July of this year. The film would be the sole MCU theatrical release of the year and would formally introduce the X-Men into the MCU. Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine and a host of other characters from Fox Studios’ Marvel entries are confirmed to appear in the film.
Recently, popular scooper Can We Get Some Toast reported that the majority of the film would be taking place in The Void, a space that was introduced in Loki. The teaser of the film indicated that the film would be a multiversal story with Deadpool going to different timelines. The scooper also mentioned how this direction was vastly different from the original script for the film, which reportedly took place during the original X-Men trilogy.

Introduced in the 1990’s Uncanny X-Men #266, Gambit quickly won the hearts of fans as he had interesting abilities and a multilayered backstory, which resonated heavily with series’ reader-base. With the ability to charge inanimate objects with energy and convert them into deadly weapons, Gambit captivated the X-Men fandom. A thief by profession, he was extremely agile and a strategist by nature.
Gambit from X-Men (1992)
The popularity sky-rocketed when he made a brief appearance in Hugh Jackman’s 2009 film, X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Fans were ecstatic to see The Trickster make an appearance, which led to Channing Tatum being offered to play the role in a standalone film.
However, Marvel decided to pull the plug on the film, as Edgar Wright, who was offered to write the script of the anti-hero, turned down the offer.

Gambit has often been a polarizing character in the X-Men Universe.

Of all the superheroes in the X-Men guild, Gambit is inevitably one of the most popular and beloved ones. Yet, he is also the one who hasn’t been able to earn himself more than one appearance in a live-action project of the mutants. Even when Channing Tatum was reportedly cast to star as Gambit in his very own solo movie, the film was later revealed to be canceled and swept under the rug.
Gambit in Marvel Comics
This is why fans are desperate to see him on the big screen once again. Not only in his animated form, like in the recently released series X-Men ’97, but also in a live-action project with Tatum embodying him. While this dream seemed far-fetched as of late, it seems it just might come true through Deadpool 3, as can be derived from Tatum’s recent message for Hugh Jackman.

Beauty transformations in Hollywood are always a hot topic, and Anya Taylor-Joy has caught the attention of many with her latest transformation. With a wide range of roles and a successful career, The Queen’s Gambit actress, 27, has become one of Hollywood’s most promising young stars.
Unfortunately, she must deal with rumors about her appearance while juggling the demands of fame. Fans were certainly worried about her, particularly since rumors circulated that she had plastic surgery. Buccal fat removal is one procedure that is allegedly responsible for her transformation. With this procedure, fat pads in the cheeks are removed, which helps to define and sculpt the facial features (probably like a Greek goddess).

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is now opening its doors and its arms to welcome Deadpool in Deadpool & Wolverine. Before Disney purchased 20th Century Fox, Fox’s Marvel playground was the X-Men franchise. They could give a team member spin-offs, like Wolverine’s solo series, or explore a different facet of mutant-kind with a film like The New Mutants. Before the Deadpool movies with Ryan Reynolds took off, there was actually another version of his story that was planned involving the X-Force team getting their own movie.
According to ScreenRant, Jeff Wadlow, director of Kick-Ass 2, recently appeared on A Trip to the Movies with Alex Zane. He revealed his scrapped plans for an X-Force movie that would have had Ryan Reynolds redeem the interpretation of Wade Wilson from X-Men Origins: Wolverine. This project was one of many canceled explorations into the X-Men universe, such as Channing Tatum‘s solo Gambit movie.

During 20th Century Fox’s run and control of specific Marvel properties, many “X-Men” projects never got made. Some of those included Channing Tatum’s “Gambit,” a James Franco-led “Multiple Man” project, a solo “X-23” pic from “Logan” director James Mangold, an R-rated “X-Men Origins: Wolverine.” written by “Game of Thrones” co-showrunner David Benioff, and even two different takes on “X-Force” from director Jeff Wadlow (“Kick-Ass 2”).

Anya Taylor-Joy faces criticism over an Instagram post showing the actress’ tiny waist in a corset before doing a red carpet for her role in Dune: Part Two.
The Queen’s Gambit star shared a carousel of pictures for a Maison Margiela look. The first image showed the actress standing in a tight corset that cinched in her waist. Many fans praised Taylor-Joy’s appearance while others expressed their concerns.
“Are your ribs okay? Could you breathe? Like, honestly wondering!” one user commented.
“Rough. Expected better from you tbh. Thinness isn’t chic,” another user said in a separate comment.

The cast of Dune: Part Two is filled to the brim with stars. The Timothee Chalamet and Zendaya starrer also features actors such as Josh Brolin, Rebecca Ferguson, Florence Pugh, Christopher Walken, and Austin Butler. Directed by Denis Villeneuve, the sci-fi epic is one of the most-anticipated films of the year.
While Villeneuve’s film already had a huge star cast, the makers seemed to have another secret star that nobody could have guessed. At the premiere of the space opera in London, Furiosa actress Anya Taylor-Joy showed up in an Arrakis-approved attire along with the rest of the cast. It was revealed that the Last Night In Soho star had an extended cameo in the film.

Believe it or not, but it’s been nearly eight years since the release of Gore Verbinski’s last movie — the underrated A Cure for Wellness — but the director finally has a new project in the works. Deadline reports that Verbinski has assembled a fantastic ensemble of actors for his action-adventure movie titled Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die.
Sam Rockwell, one of my all-time favourite actors, will be leading the cast, which includes Haley Lu Richardson (The White Lotus), Juno Temple (Fargo), Michael Peña (Ant-Man and the Wasp), and Zazie Beetz (Joker). Rockwell will star as a “man from the future” who arrives at a Los Angeles diner to recruit a “precise combination of disgruntled patrons to join him on a one-night-six-block quest to save the world from the terminal threat of a rogue artificial intelligence.“

Way back in 2000, audiences watching X-Men gave a knowing chuckle when a leather-clad Cyclops asked Wolverine, “What would you prefer, yellow spandex?” At the time, even those of us who love the Canucklehead’s traditional duds understood the point. In a world where Superman’s blue and red suit disappeared from screens in 1987 and only Batman’s nipple-y but dark suits remained, the lavish X-Men costumes of the comics wouldn’t fly with general audiences.
For all the successes across the 13 films in the Fox X-Men franchise, concessions to a general audience not inundated with superheroes meant that the studio felt the need to cut some corners. Some of the revisions worked, especially the tall, handsome Aussie Hugh Jackman’s more romantic take on the short, ugly Canadian Wolverine. Others, however, left much to be desired.

Actress Cameron Diaz and her ‘The Holiday’ co-star Jude Law developed feelings for each other in real life during the shoot of the film. ‘The Holiday’ has made itself a nailed-on Christmas classic since it was released in 2006. The film stars Cameron Diaz as Amanda Woods, and Kate Winslet in the role of Iris Simpkins. The festive rom com follows the two women after they swap homes for Christmas after having their hearts broken, reports ‘Mirror.co.uk’.

Despite Angels’ efforts to rip off the mask of Del Sol, he was unable to vanquish the Luchador. Del Sol would connect with Salida del Sol off the top rope to score his first singles victory in Impact Wrestling.

Despite their declining fortunes at the box office, Marvel Studios seems primed to make a controversial casting choice for the upcoming Fantastic Four movie. While reports have come out that The Queen’s Gambit star Anya Taylor-Joy is being eyed for an unspecified villain role, the buzz online is that they want her to play The Silver Surfer. The news of Joy’s casting in the film (not who she’s being rumoured to play) comes from notorious scooper @DanielRPK. This follows recent, unconfirmed reports that the character would be getting gender-swapped in Matt Shakman’s Fantastic Four reboot.
While the notion of gender-swapping the character, also known as Norrin Radd, may rub fans the wrong way, the character has been infamously tricky to translate to the big screen. The last live-action version of the character was in Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, where Doug Jones played him...

January 2024 will mark the eighth anniversary of Jennifer Lawrence’s second Best Comedy/Musical Actress Golden Globe victory for “Joy,” which, having followed her previous lead and supporting triumphs for “Silver Linings Playbook” (2013) and “American Hustle” (2014), made the 25-year-old the youngest three-time film acting honoree in the organization’s history. That particular hot streak ended there, but she may be set for a comeback at the upcoming 81st Golden Globe Awards if enough voters favor her work in the raunchy summer flick “No Hard Feelings.” If she does end up adding another trophy to her vast collection, she will set several new precedents and tie her category’s record for most wins.
At this point, the only two women who have clinched three Best Comedy/Musical Actress Golden Globes are Rosalind Russell and Julie Andrews, who respectively reached the milestone in 1963 (“Gypsy”) and 1983 (“Victor/Victoria”). Russell had previously been lauded for...

In a statement, Mitski explained that she had been “a fan of the Netflix show, and an even greater fan of the original novel” before being approached for the musical, which was first reported to be in the works back in 2021.
“I was already determined to be a member of this team,” Mitski explained, but that determination only “grew tenfold” after meeting her collaborators, Eboni Booth and Whitney White.

It's possible that the 20th Century Fox-financed "X-Men" is the most important superhero movie ever made. There were hit folks-in-spandex flicks prior to Bryan Singer's 2000 blockbuster, but, even with movies like Richard Donner's "Superman" and Tim Burton's "Batman," you could sense a lack of traction. Studios didn't know how to franchise comic book movies back then because the executives didn't read or get comic books.
Singer's film changed this. Stephen Norrington's surprise 1998 hit "Blade" was the Marvel geek aperitif, but "X-Men" was, for Gen-x comic book readers, the realization of a lifelong dream. We never thought we'd get a big-screen adaptation of Marvel Comics' uncanny characters, but the time was right for Professor Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. The advances in computer-generated visual effects allowed Singer to make -- on a smallish budget given the film's tentpole ambitions -- a vibrant comic book movie...

The rumor mill lit up with a new piece of information that could possibly point to a part for Channing Tatum in Deadpool 3.
Deadpool 3, which is still set for May of next year (although a delay is quite possible due to the ongoing Hollywood strikes), is speculated to incorporate many more 20th Century Fox-produced Marvel characters than just Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine.
And speaking of Fox, they had a Gambit movie in development for many years that would’ve starred Channing Tatum in the titular role. However, after multiple failed starts and a lengthy stint in development hell that produced some intriguing storyboard art, the picture finally got the kibosh in 2019.

It’s a deceptively big month on Prime Video in September! To kick things off, The Wheel of Time will be back for a second season on the service, while a live-action The Boys spinoff series called Gen V will be capping off the original series content later in the month.
But there are also some interesting new projects lined up between those two biggies. On September 15, Jenna Coleman and Oliver Jackson-Cohen star in what is sure to be a delicious tale of revenge.

Director Gavin Hood's "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" was designed to usher in a shiny new era for Fox's "X-Men" films. After the studio's original mutant trilogy came to an ignominious end in 2006 with "X-Men: The Last Stand" (a film that saw alleged sexual harasser Brett Ratner replace alleged sexual predator Bryan Singer at the helm), Fox decided to soft reboot the franchise by making a prequel film about Hugh Jackman's Man With the Adamantium Claws. "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" even teed up potential spinoffs by introducing Ryan Reynolds as a pre-Deadpool Wade Wilson and Taylor Kitsch as the Ragin' Cajun himself, the smooth-talking, card-chucking thief Remy LeBeau, better known as Gambit.
Pulling what we'd now call a "Black Adam," Hood's prequel did indeed change the hierarchy of Fox's X-Men Universe ... just not in the way it intended. The film's negative critical response and middling box office turnout led to...

Anya Taylor-Joy’s boyfriend Malcolm McRae is also a talented entertainer — an actor and musician. The two have been together since at least March 2021, when The Queen’s Gambit actress publicly acknowledged McRae for the first time. Two years and a few months later, reports emerged claiming they had a secret wedding. Neither Taylor-Joy nor McRae has confirmed or refuted that they are married. This has fanned the public’s interest in their relationship, pulling McRae deeper into the spotlight. WhileMcRae is committed to gaining the mainstream recognition that would take his career to a greater height, his partner got her...

Over time, you start to notice some films seem destined to live out their days in development hell. These films are seemingly cursed to never see production. Marvel’s “Gambit” is one of those films. And now, it appears we can add “Masters of the Universe” to that list, as well.

Remember that Gambit spin-off that Channing Tatum was supposed to be the lead on? Sadly, that’s been effectively squashed, so the only live-action appearance of the popular villain remains X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Nevertheless, the Gambit project feels dead right now, though it’s likely for the best. It’s important that Marvel first re-establish the X-Men within the MCU. It would actually be cool if Gambit was one of the core members of the rebooted group. Though, it would be better if he started out as a solo character. The X-Men anti-hero has been pretty unique backstory that deserves to be total.
