Channing Tatum’s Canceled Gambit Movie Had a '30s Screwball Romantic Comedy Vibe Set in the Superhero World
Lizzy Caplan, in a recent interview with Business Insider, revealed intriguing details about the scrapped Channing Tatum Gambit movie. She described the film's concept as "a really cool idea," hinting at a unique blend of genres. The movie, she confirmed, was set to feature a "’30s kind of screwball romantic comedy" within the superhero world. Caplan, slated to star alongside Tatum, even went so far as to say they were "gonna shoot it" and a start date had been set. This aligns with producer Simon Kinberg's 2018 comments to IGN, where he described the planned tone as a "romantic or sex comedy vibe," fitting with Gambit's character. Tatum's long and ultimately unsuccessful journey to bring Gambit to the screen, culminating in a surprise cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine, is well-documented. The project's cancellation followed the 2019 Disney-Fox merger. With the X-Men's impending arrival in the MCU, speculation continues regarding Tatum's future as Gambit. Last August, Ryan Reynolds' tweet of a high-quality Deadpool & Wolverine scene further fueled fan theories.
