Among the movie’s most cherished scenes is when Channing Tatum finally made his appearance as Remy LeBeau/Gambit, a role he had been eagerly anticipated for, following the delay of his proposed solo film. Since then, the actor has spoken about his future with this character.

He expressed his strong wish, “I truly hope we can play Gambit again.” He added, “May your words bring it to life, my friend. Please, make it so.
