What to do with the Gambit movie.

What to do with

 

Ah, Gambit one of the most popular mutants in the Marvel universe and a huge X men fan favourite he's consider to be one of the best X men and is wildly popular. I mean, who doesn't love that Louisiana mutant. He was awesome in the X Men animated series, X Men Evolution, and Wolverine and The X men. As for movies well.... like all of us we all hate X Men Origins because like Deadpool, Gambit was poorly done and wasted. It wasn't until 2016 that Deadpool got a great reboot with Ryan Reynolds and man did we get a great, fantastic, awesome, superhero R rated film. Now for while Fox has been trying to make up for Gambit by coming out with a movie with Channing Tatum on board to play Gambit. Which I think is good casting choice and he was going to play Gambit in X Men Origins before Taylor Kitsch took the part. Now this film has a lot of problems in development like its lost three directors like Rupert Wyatt, Doug Liman, and recently Gore Verbinski has drop out. The film was suppose to come out next February but is now June 7th 2019.

Now what should Fox do with Gambit after loosing three directors here are three options that I think  they should do.

First option: Delay the film to 2020 to make sure the film is not rushed because it could suck. 

One of the things Fox can do is delay this film further and work more on the story and find a director that will stay on board no matter what. I'm not sure how long Channing Tatum can take much more of these delays to this film. He might just drop out or he will be like Ryan Reynolds and stay on board until this film gets made. They have delay this film to next summer because Gore dropped out and now after this I feel like its best to delay this film to 2020, because it could give them more time to work on the script and getting a director thats not going to drop out anytime. The story of the film I have read whats its about and its pretty damn good. I do want to learn about Gambit's origins. Gambit is another great X man I feel really deserves a chance at the spotlight like many other X men like Cyclops, Angel, Rogue, and Psylocke are neglected by Fox. I know this film is their way to make up to fans who were let down by X Men Origins. That I understand but the studio needs to take its time with the film and I'm sure Channing Tatum won't be leaving if it got delay to 2020 he will still play Gambit till he's fifty. A delay film is better than rushed film because if they rush the film it will suck and be let down.  

Second Option: Reintroduce Gambit in a X Men film first and than do a solo movie. 

We all still want to see Gambit make another movie screen appearance so if the film is struggling why not introduce Gambit in an X Men film. We already got Dark Phoenix coming out this fall even though I don't care for it. Maybe next X Men film after this depending if its a successes, reintroduce Gambit as part of the X Men like the picture on the left. It will give fans what they want and maybe he will steal show, but don't make it all about him. The X men films should be about the X Men. Like if the next X Men film after Dark Phoenix has Mister Sinister as the main villain having Gambit would make sense even though is rumour that Mr Sinister will be the villain in the Gambit movie. Either way Mr Sinister needs to get done. It might be the next best idea to introduce Gambit in an X men first than do a solo film or they stick to their plan and do a movie and than make member of the X Men whatever is good idea. 

Third Option: Let Marvel Studios take the reigns and make Gambit it will also be the first x man film to introduce mutants in the MCU.

Now if you know or don't know Disney bought Fox for 54 billion dollars. Now that means Disney owns X Men and Fantastic Four but there is downside, Fox already announce 13 movie projects all about X men and one on Dr Doom. It will take Marvel Studios like a year or maybe not until Avengers 6 when we will get to see the X Men in the MCU. There is still hope for Fantastic Four though because I really want an MCU Fantastic Four because lets face it Fox is terrible with Fantastic Four. Now if Marvel studios was going to make an X Man film, Gambit could be the first mutant to be introduce in the MCU and to be honest Marvel Studios would do a great job with X Men. Now I know what you're thinking but Fox can make Gambit rated R and Deadpool and Logan were both awesome being rated R. That's fine but Gambit can work both Pg 13 and R. Like Gambit is not the same as Deadpool and Wolverine we can have a pg 13 film of Gambit and it can be like The Dark Knight level pg 13, or Thor Ragnarok pg 13, or Guardians of the Galaxy. It can totally work for Gambit, still like I wrote it will take years Marvel Studios take their shot and to be honest in my opinion I think give us better X men films where all the characters shine and not get wasted. Still if Fox becomes desperate and needs helps and now that their own by Disney, maybe Kevin Fergie will step in and help out with the film.  

That's my three thoughts on what Fox should do with Gambit and who knows in couple months we might get announcements saying It's getting push back to 2020 so we can work on it more, Gambit will now be appearing in X Men Dark Phoenix part 2, or Marvel Studios will now make the Gambit movie as first introduction to mutants in the MCU. Who knows what happen. Tell me what you think they should do with Gambit, leave comment, and thank you all for reading.
