First Look at Gambit in ‘Wolverine’
This is the first image of the much anticipated introduction of Gambit to the X-Men franchise played by Taylor Kitsch. This is taken from the upcoming film X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
Gambit first appeared in Uncanny X-Men #266 in August 1990. Created by writer Chris Claremont and artists Jim Lee and Mike Collins, Gambit is skilled in card throwing, hand-to-hand combat, the use of a b?, and possesses the ability to manipulate kinetic energy. A professional thief and self described ladies man, the character has had a longtime on and off again romantic fling with Rogue.
Gambit has always been one of my personal favorites in the X-Men universe. I was hoping he’d be introduced in the first three movies, but it’s hard to pull off such a high concept character. Hopefully the choice of Taylor Kitsch will be worth turning down the initial options of Josh Halloway or James Franco for the role. What do you think of the choice?
