So much so that a small cameo alongside foul-mouthed Deadpool meta morphed into a full-blown role in an ensemble flick as big as Avengers: Doomsday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">To some, Gambit may seem like just another character portrayal by Tatum that translates to hefty paychecks, but in reality, there is more than meets the eye. To Tatum, Gambit is his childhood dream, his childhood hero. We can only imagine what it means to play your idol. And when Tatum had limited his dreams to just being an X-Men, but then ended up as part of the biggest superhero ensemble that will make history, the emotional weight became heavier than usual.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In an interview with <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=j-d2CxuNI0Y\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Today;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Today<\/a>, the actor spilled the beans about fulfilling his dream of playing Gambit and then reprising his role in Avengers: Doomsday. He said, \u201cI always dreamed as a kid. I was the kid in Mississippi, like throwing cards at my friends in the front den. To get to play him, my childhood hero, I wanted to be an X-Men, much less be an Avenger. It keeps unfolding, and I can&#8217;t believe I get to be a part of it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As Gambit transitions from cameo to Multiverse Saga, we hope there is more ahead for Gambit, because clearly, he is rising on the ladder of popularity.
