No Gambit For X-Men 3

One of the most commented on posts this past year was one I put up asking if people thought Gambit should make an appearance in X-Men 3 (over 200 comments). The discussion was a good one… but it looks like it’s a pointless one now.

The good folks over at TheXVerse.com are reporting today that X-Men 3 will indeed NOT have Gambit make an appearance in the film. I know this will disappoint a lot of people… but honestly it’s probably for the best. The true comic character is too much like the movie version of Wolverine personality wise… and as we’ve all already noticed, there are far too many characters in X-Men 3 already.

However, all you Gambit fans fear not… there is still hope that we may see him in an X-Men 4. Here’s that they’re saying:

Ralph Winter (one of the film’s producers) confirmed to The Xverse that there is no appearance by Gambit in X-Men 3 — but that it might be included in “the next one”. This indicates that despite any possible plans to end the series with a trilogy, people involved with production are open to future X-sequels.

So there you have it. What is your reaction to this news?
