The online community has been rife with speculation about the MCU film’s release date and narrative elements. Many expressed a desire to explore the dynamic realm of Interkinetic Power, often linked to the X-Men. However, the Gambit trailer remains to be seen whether this project is genuinely in the works or merely a manifestation of fans’ curiosity regarding how this Marvel film will reinterpret the cherished comic book character.
So, here’s everything you need to know about the rumored Channing Tatum Gambit Movie Trailer.
Is Marvel’s Gambit trailer real or fake?
No, the Marvel’s Gambit trailer featuring Channing Tatum is fan-made.
Recently on Saturday, August 31, 2024. The internet buzzed with excitement when the popular fan-made trailer channel, Screen Culture posted THE GAMBIT (2025) Channing Tatum Returns! on its YouTube channel. As of now, the trailer has racked up over 44,869 views showcasing the eager anticipation for the movie. This confirms that this trailer is a fan-made and conceptual-based one.
The trailer looks like it’s got a mix of some classic clips, AI-generated graphics, a new remix of Channing Tatum’s scenes from Deadpool & Wolverine, and bits from previous Gambit projects. Plus, there’s a heavy dose of CGI thrown in. With all that going on, it’s hard for viewers to figure out what’s real and just special effects.
Will Channing Tatum get a solo MCU Gambit movie?
No, there’s no official confirmation from Marvel for a Gambit movie, with Channing Tatum getting a solo MCU Gambit movie.
In an interview with Variety, Channing Tatum expresses his desire to play the role of Gambit and wants his solo Gambit movie by saying, “I’ve been saying I want it for the last 10 years. It’s in Bob Iger and Kevin Feige’s hands. I pray to God.”
Despite Tatum’s unwavering enthusiasm for the character, the long-anticipated solo Gambit film seems unlikely to happen. Tatum has shared his thoughts on the possibility of Marvel Studios reviving the project. Originally, he was set to star in a Gambit film announced by Fox back in 2014.
Unfortunately, the project faced numerous obstacles, including constant shifts in directors and creative vision, preventing it from ever coming into action. After a decade of waiting, Tatum finally got the opportunity to portray Gambit, making a surprising appearance in the star-studded cast of Deadpool & Wolverine within the MCU. (via slashfilm)
However, the decisive turning point ultimately occurred when Disney took over 20th Century Fox in 2019. This acquisition resulted in the shelving of numerous Fox projects, including the Gambit movie, which didn’t fit with Marvel Studios’ direction for the MCU. Meanwhile, Tatum was said to be heartbroken by the project’s cancellation, feeling such a deep connection to the character that he found it difficult to enjoy other Marvel films afterward, as per Mickey’s blog.
