Josh Holloway To Be In X-Men Movie?
Nov 21, 2006 AT 08:01 am
Josh Holloway is rumored to have landed the role of Gambit in the next X-Men movie. I don't what I would do with myself. It's like my two favorite empires combining! His power you ask? Gambit can charge objects with energy, causing them to explode... like my heart. I also found out that X-Men: The Last Stand will not include Hugh Jackman, Sir Ian McKellen and Halle Berry. What is up with that?
Lost star Josh Holloway is being tipped to star in the next X-Men movie as fan favorite Gambit. Holloway, who plays Sawyer on the hit TV show, was set to star as Gambit in X-Men: The Last Stand but pulled out because of TV commitments. But it's reported the model/actor will star in the next installment, which will not feature many of the film's original stars, including Hugh Jackman, Sir Ian McKellen and Halle Berry. The film's producer Lauren Shuler Donner tells Moviehole, "Remember in Lost? There was a guy in there that was the perfect Gambit, the guy with the straight hair, good-looking, the bad boy... Sawyer. The reason we didn't use Gambit was because in a sense his persona is a bit like Wolverine in that he's got attitude and his power is not quite as exciting as the others. That's why we went to Nightcrawler on 2 because he looked different than everybody else and he had a great power. So yes, I think we would weave Gambit within our story, (but) it wouldn't be The Gambit Movie." Gambit possesses the ability to charge objects with energy, causing them to explode. (source)

OH HELL NO
He is too old for Anna Paquin, the receding hairline!!! No, no, no
No need to worry. lol. This guy ain't gonna be Gambit. Last I check, Taylor Kitsch is going to play Gambit. I pegged the actor of choice to be a bit older.....buuuuut Hollywood likes to play around with things. so yeah. I like the casting choice of Taylor though, he's sexy and has body karate, just like Gambit...so atleast they did domething right. XDD
Josh Holloway is being tipped to star in the next X-Men movie as fan favorite Gambit -- explosive -- absolutely perfect casting. Love both.
He would make a great gambit....Well anna P shouldnt have been rouge in the first place.. shes to young and very unattractive for the roll of the southern belle. I dont know if you guys have been down to the south but girls dont look like her..she looks likes shes from long island.....if they would have choose a better character for rouge we wouldnt be having these problems casting gambit.,
i think that holloway could be Gambit. only if he could actually sound like him. the they could put in a much older person (much fuller) for rogue and leave anna paquin alone for a change.
Josh Holloway = Best Gambit everr.
Jesus ****ing christ! Josh would be so great as gambit..but that anna p girl wouldnt go at all with him it made me so sad when i saw the first movie Rouge is southern girl and is beautiful no she doesnt look innocent she didnt make it as a Rouge
Brittany Murphy for Rogue is perfect too =)
yes that is my name and yes i love in la and i only have this name because when i was born my parents were obsessed with the x-men any way i reckon that josh wil do fine , he got my vote cher,
arovoir mon me !
PLEASE put gambit in the next x-men movie!!!
carmen electra shouldve played rouge ^^
He is a great actor - I think it was a good decision for him to be in these movies.
This makes me all tingly inside! :D
need a better rogue for this gambit ****er looks like him
I think we all know who the guy to play gambit is... Guillaume Canet.
i think that josh would make a perfect gambit but all u anna haters suck she is a good rogue, even though she looks a little young she is a good actor, i just wish they would have rouge with ms. marvels power, i agree with lilly when she says
lilly rose said:
i think that a good plot to put in the next movie would be the ms. marvel situation. they could use the whole thing with rogue taking the “cure†than leaving the x-men because she feels she doesn’t belong there anymore. than her powers start returning, she meets with mystique who manipulates her into collaboration. than the whole ms. marvel thingy follows, rogue runs away again and finally dares to return to the mansion which is now almost abandoned (without professor x). she wanders around for a while before meeting with storm who has already encountered gambit. and than some more plot development and a couple of more villains to trash…and we have ourselves and x4!
I have carved in wood, portraits of the cast of LOST!
I have finished carving Josh Holloway, as well as a few others of the cast.
If you are interested in buying one, or maybe even bidding to buy a "One-of-a-Kind" Carved Portrait;
Email me at portraitsinwood@gmail.com
I have an example of "Charlie" Dominique Monahan on my web page.
I have 6 cast members carved right now.
It takes me about a week per portrait.
Oh, and YES, I do carve other people too!
Just ask!
Why is it that just cause the director or producer I dont know which of the two didnt like Gambit and thats fine but what makes me mad is how he tries to make it sound like he's the majority which in fact is not true .. Out of all the research I've done I've found out more people like Gambit then not, plus as to the comment about his powers not being that exciting. he can make anything eplode by touching it . He even destroyed the whole planet in one comic and and had to bind half his power cause he was the strongest mutant alive, he also has a charm power which makes women fall in love with him, and he has that bo ( Staff) and martial art moves. The Producer should have said you know what? I don't like him instead of making him sound weak and boring.. In more then one issue of the comic Gambit beats Wolverine ( which Is my second favorite character so dont think Im a Wolverine basher ) so again this should have been the explanation as to why they didnt use him and thats why they F'ed up the story line with Rouge and everything eles, instead of trying to make people think Gambit isnt cool, I think someone should make a movie JUST about Gambit.... Oh and FYI if there is some troll out there that is going to yell about my post and try to correct me and just do what every 12 year old with a PC does, don't bother cause I won't return to read what any replys are..but if someone says something to the fact that they agree with me well then thank you in advance =P
