Thank goodness. Lol. I was reading that he wants compensation to push forward with toys and shirts and other merchandise. So not only is Channing giving us a Gambit movie, but toys and merch?! Thank you for making me add more to my Gambit collection. He's like our own Gambit Guild Santa Clause. And he wants sequels. Thank you, C-Tates.
http://www.comicbookresources.com/article/report-channing-tatum-fox-close-gambit-deal he is offically on board....AGAIN wasnt he officially on board before
Fox and Tatum had only every verbally confirmed a deal but they had never actually signed anything. So probably last minute postering.
So he was down to act in it and produce , talked about this in interviews and even went to comic con, Donner confirmed he was in it and producing, Tatum talked about the script we have all seen the interviews, Fox put out a statement with him confirmed, yet he hadn't confirmed a deal? wtf
Promotion stunt, Perhaps? I don't think there was ever a real issue, and him walking out on the deal, not after having spent so much time and energy already on promoting it...
Well it was either a stunt or an overblown water cooler rumor but either way, I glad it's done. And I really, really hope he agreed to pay a multi picture deal and being even a little bit a the face of the franchise...
The character they have tried to bury for so long has persevered through his hardcore fans and now his most famous fan has a movie out of it. Suck it, Marvel. Haha.
