I don't thinks it lack of interest, there is no positive news regarding the project. It's tough to keep up when all the news bad news or negative articles for click bait.
TBH - the guy still wants to work in and have film roles, he can't wait forever for this project even if he's the one who was pushing for it. Unless he funds it himself which he won't do, what can you do.

Now that Marvel has finally acquired Fox and the cinematic rights to the Xmen, our best bet to see Gambit on the big screen is just to wait until they reboot the Xmen movies for Gambit to appear. Marvel is 100% going to adapt their own version of the X-men and that'll be a part of the overall MCU. Marvel knows that the X-men were at their peak in the 90s so I think they'll adapt that version for the big screen at some point to capitalize on fans' nostalgia (those fans will take their kids to watch too). I think that's when Gambit will appear on the big screen next. It might be a little bit of a wait though.

Oh yeah, this film is dead.

Agreed. If Marvel is keen on not rehashing what Fox has done (kind of like what they did with Spiderman by not repeating what Sony had done), I think we have a better chance of seeing Gambit on screen in a team film. They'll want to start fresh, and what's more "fresh" than introducing characters who were barely used in Fox's franchise and who are seeing a resurgence in popularity right now? OK, so I'm an optimist.  :P

Putting a lot of hope on a company that has s*** all over Gambit the last decade or so.  Have no faith in Marvel with respect to Gambit.

Seeing at this point how many times that Gambit was supposed to be cast and appear but always got axed, with 2009's Wolverine Origins film, I'm unfortunately not going to hold my breath.  I see and hear a lot of dislike all over from others regarding Gambit.  Case and point: Gambit has not even been included in the last couple of Marvel vs.  Capcom video games when he proved to be one of the best characters way back since X-men vs.  Street Fighter hit the scene.  I just don't feel and very much confidence that Disney even cares about Gambit at all.

 Meant to express the Wolverine Origins was the exception.  It's very frustrating, because I just know that Gambit does, in fact happen to be one of the top most popular mutants.  I am I am very curious to see and hear producer, Simon Kinberg's excuse as to why? When he promised, even only a few months ago that this film was, for certain going to happen.  I'm positive even then that he must have already had some inclination that Disney was knocking at the door.

Again, I hope I'm not putting a link that's already been posted here, but I saw this fan made Gambit trailer and doesn't look too bad.

As for Ben Barnes as Gambit... I'm not sure, but I'll take Nina Dobrev as Rogue over Paquin any day.

A collider reporter asked Tatum about Gambit today. CT says nothing new to report ..and he has no idea IF or when it will be made. What a waste of all that anticipation.
