What Did Channing Tatum Reveal About Avengers: Doomsday?
In a recent interview with People, Tatum, who will reprise his role as Remy LeBeau/Gambit, shared his excitement about the film. He first appeared as Gambit in the upcoming Deadpool & Wolverine set to release in 2024. Tatum emphasized the "sheer scale" of Avengers: Doomsday, noting the high expectations set by the Russo Brothers’ previous Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) films.
Tatum remarked, "The Russos really set themselves up for a tough bar to hit, but I genuinely believe this film will meet what fans are craving."

Tatum also addressed the challenge of portraying Gambit’s iconic Cajun accent. He explained, “I have to interpret what needs to come across in each scene. It’s about striking a balance—determining if a line is meant for humor, where I can really lean into the Cajun accent, or if it’s crucial for the plot, where clarity is key, even with the accent.” This thoughtful approach highlights Tatum’s commitment to authentically bringing Gambit to life.
