Gambit stand-alone movie coming in 2016!

Quote :

What a way to start the New Year, eh? Channing Tatum has already been confirmed as playing Gambit in his own solo movie (and presumably X-Men: Apocalypse as well), but we now know that the movie will reach us on October 7th, 2016. Robocop scribe Josh Zetumer is penning the screenplay based on a treatement written by legendary X-Men writer Chris Claremont, the man who created the character alongside Jim Lee in 1990. The Fantastic Four 2 - it's happening whether you like it or not - will now reach us a little earlier on June 2nd, 2017, with the currently untitled Dawn of the Planet of the Apes sequel taking its original July 14th, 2017 slot. Finally, Assassin's Creed has FINALLY been given another release date as it has been confirmed as hitting on December 21st, 2016. Which of these movies are you guys most looking forward to?

I will never get used to the picture being inside the quote box. It just looks weird.

Anyway! Cool. Can't wait to see what they do with the character this time.

Finally! A superhero movie set in my city.

What if they don't film it there?

@yonny616 I can't think of any reason why they wouldn't. Lots a movies of being filmed down here due to the state's film production tax incentives. Besides, a Gambit movie without New Orleans like Spider-Man without New York City. Also I think Channing Tatum likes it down here. My niece actually got a chance to meet him and took a picture with him while she was working at a mobile phone store, and Channing Tatum actually invited her to one of his clubs.
