mattehavoc I've been waiting forever to have Gambit make a real appearance in the film series. -
MTLkid Great, Gambit's going to spend half the movie drunk and slobbering over a chick.
That said, interesting choice.

Written by Lucas C Haberstich And now even more X-Men Origins: Wolverine casting news. Bearing in mind that the news came from a post on the SuperheroHype message boards, grains of salt should be kept handy. The scoop is that Taylor Kitsch of NBC's Friday Night Lights series has signed a three-picture deal to play the mutant Gambit. His first appearance as the card-tossing character would be as a member of the rapidly-growing cast of the Wolverine solo flick. Kitsch looks like a good visual match for Gambit, the comic book lothario with the mutant power to charge objects ...

I guess Hugh Jackman wasn’t kidding when he told USA Today there’d be “a good bit of cameos [of mutants].” But first, let’s look at the parts we already knew about:
The role of a young William Stryker (played by Brian Cox in X2) was originally rumored to go to Liev ...

If you’re asking who Taylor Kitsch is and why he’s got dibbs on playing Gambit, one of the most anticipated and liked X-Men ever, check out the following YouTube interview to get a nice idea of his mannerisms and his voice. My knee-jerk reaction was disappointment, but he seems like he could be a good fit, no? For a relative unknown? Others will know Kitsch from his role as Tim Higgins on the TV show Friday Night Lights and the one guy out there will cry “he was in Renny Harlin’s The Covenant and he was totes awesome.” ...
