"Friday Night Lights" star Taylor Kitsch will play Gambit (AKA Remy LeBeau) in director Gavin Hood's X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Kitsch has signed a three-picture deal.

He'll be joining Hugh Jackman (Wolverine), Liev Schreiber (Sabretooth), Danny Huston (William Stryker) and Lynn Collins (Silver Fox) in the 20th Century Fox release, opening May 1, 2009.

Leading up to the events of X-Men, "Wolverine" tells the story of Wolverine's epically violent and romantic past, his complex relationship with Victor Creed, and the ominous Weapon X program. Along the way, Wolverine encounters many mutants, both familiar and new, including surprise appearances by several legends of the X-Men universe.

meh Gambit is ok but his contant "cherie" phrasing became annoying ..kind of discouraging that they're skipping the whole Logan/Mariko thing and going for the far less complex and intellectually stimulating weapon X plot line


also not so sure about the director ..I mean he's made one hollywood film , which was released to mixed reviews and a film that wona an academy award for best foreign film ..seems to me he's his best when he has the creative reins ..since X-men is a franchise, I expect him to have little to no control
 
Gambit is just so, uninteresting...
 
STFU, throwing exploding cards is what being superhuman is all about. Gambit's got style.
 
yes because style is important in a superhero


"oh noes, the Verminator stole'd the sun again, CALL AQUAMAN!!!"

"screw that, he's got no style, lets call Gambit, I'm homoerotically drawn to how stylish he is"
 
Gambit's incredible. Even if you don't like him, you have to respect him--he can kinetically charge ANYTHING. Everything is a weapon to him. Plus he can do other things like minor hypnosis, he's previously had the abilities to shut out other peoples' mutant powers, and at one point he could kinetically charge objects just by looking at them. And powers aside, he was raised by a thieves guild, he's a martial artist, and the accent's pretty awesome. Plus he can shut off Rogue's powers, so...

But much as I love Remy, it doesn't matter. Nobody in this movie matters except Ryan Renolds.

Because he's cast as DEADPOOL.

It's a small part, but Deadpool in a movie? Who cares about anybody else? Don't even go watch this movie for Sniktbub or the Ragin' Cajun, watch it for the merc with the mouth. Chimichanga.

You don't need to lie to your point across. You and I both know damn well nobody calls on Aquaman.
 
he wears purple and freakin pink

pretty sure that means he's gay



Darkside: that's not entirely true ..I'm sure there's more than a few people who need a whale unstuck from their swimming pools or just like the smell of fish
 
Real men wear purple and/or pink. It takes stones to wear pink as a man. Plus, when was the last time you actually saw a gay man in a pink shirt? It's been years; they don't "do" pink any more.

Plus Gambit has a leather duster and that counteracts any other fashion choices he might make. That's some High Noon style right there. "Lemme pull this deck of cards out of my f*ckawesome jacket, mon ami."

please for the love of god, stop making me look for images that disproves your statements
 
Gambit's cool, but Beast is cooler.
 
Deadpool will steal the movie if he's used correctly.
 
Liev Schreiber is a crap Sabretooth.

Jackman is an OK Wolverine.

Gambit is an OK character. His power is unique (afaik) to the universe and awesome.

Mariko is Lady Deathstrike and she was done already so she can't be done again, I say. Weapon X is far more interesting to me, provided they get Alpha Flight in there.
 
Stern, that guy in the pink shirt didn't get the memo that pink is out for gay people. You can still wear it, but it isn't a homosexual-exclusive color.

And that was a leather riding jacket, not a leather duster. Point stands!

Also Bam, there's supposed to be TEN MINUTES of Deadpool. :D I think there's only going to be five minutes of Gambit.
 
Gambit in jacket = massive combo coolness.
 
sophisticated yet speaks in patois ...riiiiight ...that's an oxymoron like fresh frozen
 
You been listening to disposeable heroes again Stern?

It's the juxtaposition of his accent and jacket that make him so awesome!
 
Wonder if they will do the James Howlett storyline. Just read Wolverine Origin. Pretty cool story.
 
Bam and Darkside know where it's at. Deadpool will MAKE this movie.

I looked up this james howlett thingy ...they raped my childhood!!! from the wiki article this is all there was to logan's origin when I was reading x-men:


Logan is eventually discovered by James and Heather Hudson, who help him recover his humanity. Following his recovery, Logan, this time under the supervision of Department H, once again works for Canadian Intelligence. Logan becomes Wolverine, one of Canada's first superheroes. In his first mission, he is dispatched to stop the destruction caused by a brawl between the Hulk and the Wendigo.

James Hudson soon creates Alpha Flight and recruits Logan with the intention of making him team leader


Professor X recruits Wolverine to a new team of X-Men.[20] Disillusioned with his Canadian intelligence work and intrigued by Xavier's offer, Logan resigns from Department H.

Professor X gathers a new team of X-Men to free Cyclops' team from the mutant island known as Krakoa. Logan and the other new X-Men successfully rescue the previous team, marking the beginning of a new period in Logan's life. Logan forms an immediate friendship with Nightcrawler and a strong attraction to Jean Grey, which causes frequent clashes between him and Cyclops.

James Hudson eventually finds Wolverine and tries to force him to return him to Department H, but is defeated quickly. Later, in Japan, Wolverine encounters Lady Mariko Yashida, heir to an extremely powerful Yakuza family in Tokyo.[21] During an intimate scene in a garden Wolverine begins to tell Mariko his name but is interrupted by Mandroids and Moses Magnum. After the battle and before leaving Japan, he finally tells Mariko his name is "Logan" and presents her with a white chrysanthemum.[22] It is the first time he reveals the name he calls himself. As time passes, he falls for Mariko, as Jean Grey is attached.

Vindicator returns as the leader of Canada's first superhero team Alpha Flight. With his new team, he attempts to capture Wolverine. Not long after the X-Men defeat Alpha Flight, Jean Grey, possessed by Phoenix, dies. Cyclops leaves the team in grief, and Storm takes up the mantle of the X-Men's leader. Kitty Pryde joins the team and eventually becomes one of Wolverine's closest friends.

Wolverine, donning his brown and tan outfit for the first time, travels to Canada with Nightcrawler in tow to make peace with Alpha Flight by helping them take down the Wendigo once more.[23] During this adventure, Wolverine's teammates finally learn his name.

In his first solo limited series, written by Chris Claremont and drawn by Frank Miller, Wolverine seemingly overcomes his feral nature in order to win the love and respect of Mariko Yashida. The two are engaged, but the wedding is broken off by Viper and the Silver Samurai, as well as the manipulations of the villain Mastermind.

that's pretty much it for almost 20 years of backstory ..then they done raped my memories, observe:



Another documented Department H mission is Wolverine's involvement in a hostage situation in Iraq. Iraqi militants and a group of hired mercenaries seized an American embassy in Iraq and took hostages, giving various ransom demands. Because there are Canadian hostages in the embassy, Wolverine is dispatched to handle the situation, along with an American/Canadian Delta Force. The reclaiming of the embassy is successful. However, following the battle, Wolverine finds a Canadian nun dying from a bullet wound she received in the crossfire. She tells him about how the hired American mercenaries had harassed her daily and subjected her to extreme psychological torture. Wolverine promises the nun he would avenge the suffering, and years later he hunts down the mercenaries in North America and kills them

wtf is that? canadian nuns in iraq being tortured by american mercenaries ..the plotline is almost too cartoonish to be taken seriously (I'm well aware of the irony)

And? Just 'cause you're homophobic doesn't mean that I can't like a gay X-man, who is one of the only X-men who had a steady girlfriend. (At least, in the cartoon, never read the actual comic books).

that's because he was in the closet and you're potentially gay
 
A: What's wrong with being gay?
B: I'm pretty sure I'm not gay.
 
I think Nightcrawler's the best!! The blue fuzzy dude rulz!!! :D

Does that hypothesis take prison into account?

"Go die in a fire."
I used this exact sentence in a thread once.

http://www.halflife2.net/forums/showpost.php?p=2459701&postcount=6

I got banned for it.

Mista Sparkle = Potatowned = Uriel

That's right, i got banned for saying this. Epic failure HL2.net forum mods, epic failure. Started a new account with my Uriel e-mail so it banned that account.

Anywho, they picked the wrong guy to play Gambit.
