Deadpool & Wolverine delivered on a bunch of long-awaited fan needs. Key amongst them was lastly seeing actor Channing Tatum because the explosive card grasp Gambit. That’s earlier than the Cajun sensation sacrificed himself for the greater good of a doomed universe … is what I’d say as a result of it seems he survived.
Earlier at the moment, Ryan Reynolds uploaded a clip on his official X/Twitter account—y’know, the one-stop store for everything Deadpool at this point—showcasing Gambit sauntering over the presumed corpses of Toad and a non-Olivia Munn Psylocke earlier than smirking straight on the digital camera. The one-two punch of the music swelling and Reynolds’ cheeky “*whispers* Marvel Sparkle Circle” caption closely implying the mutant’s survival… once more, is what I’d say if Reynolds’ follow-up tweet didn’t spell it out in no unsure phrases that Gambit is alive, and someplace on the market within the multiverse.

“A model of the sequence is within the movie—on one of many displays within the deep background of the TVA,” Reynolds wrote, tagging Tatum and director Shawn Levy with a yellow and crimson coronary heart emoji.
As Reynolds unsubtly factors out, Gambit surviving the ultimate act of Deadpool & Wolverine contained in the movie provides credence to the fan-favorite character showing within the MCU as soon as extra. That is undoubtedly excellent news for Tatum and unassuming kittens worldwide, seeing as how he declared he would do “terrible things” to make a Gambit film occur whereas on The Tonight Present with Jimmy Fallon. On behalf of all cat house owners, I thanks, Ryan Reynolds, for thwarting Gambit earlier than his shadow may block my doorway.
Tatum has lengthy held a candle for the X-Males character since his deliberate Fox solo film discovered itself wrapped up in years of manufacturing limbo earlier than vanishing into the ether by the point the studio was able to be merged into Disney. “In fact I’ve stated it. I’ve been saying I need it for the final 10 years,” Tatum likewise not too long ago stated to Variety of his lengthy hope to return to Gambit. “It’s in Bob Iger and Kevin Feige’s palms. I pray to God.” We’re not fairly but on the stage of a Gambit film or Disney+ present sliding into Marvel Studios’ schedule, however now the potential is really there between the character’s impromptu memetic rise in the previous few months, and Reynolds’ personal teasing with this clip. We’ll simply have to attend and see the place he makes a reputation for himself subsequent.
