Earlier, Rupert Wyatt and Doug Liman were attached as directors. The Gambit's character, also known as Remy LeBeau, was created in 1990 by Chris Claremont and Jim Lee, a mutant who is an expert card-thrower with the ability to mentally create, control and manipulate kinetic energy.
Taylor Kitsch first played The Gambit onscreen in the 2009 film "X-Men Origins: Wolverine". The script for the movie has been penned by Joshua Zetumer. The film is yet to have a release date.
