X-Men 3?

Hi all,

Sorry about starting a whole new topic about this but I didn't know where else to put it.

I heard a rumour on the old fanhost board that Orlando was rumoured to play Gambit in the tentative X Men 3. Does anyone know if this is true cos personally I think it would ROCK! :D Gambit is my fave X man and Orlando my fave actor so...well you do the math lol. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Thanks all [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yeah, actually I was the one that posted that. I'm wondering the same thing, if it's true or not. I just heard it from someone and I thought that was very interesting, but yeah. I'm not entirely sure. Hopefully he will.

That would be awesome!
I really hope he will!

Well, I checked out an X-Men 3 hype board site thingy (lol [img]tongue.gif[/img] ) and quite a lot of people were suggesting Orli for it - I so hope this is true or its disspointment town for me hehehe ;) .

There might not even be a Gambit:

In a special screening of X-Men in Los Angeles the week before the release of X2, screenwriter David Hayter revealed that the character most likely to be introduced in this third movie is original X-Man Dr. Hank McCoy, AKA The Beast. What is unclear is whether the same actor who had a small cameo as McCoy, Steve Bacic, would return in the role, or if Fox would seek someone a bit more famous. Of course, if Dr. McCoy has already evolved into the blue-furred version of Beast by the time of this movie, that problem may solve itself. Other likely candidates that have been mentioned or rumored for either 'X2' or 'X3' in recent years are original X-Man Warren Worthington III (AKA 'Angel') and Remy LeBeau (AKA 'Gambit'). In that same talk, Hayter said that he doubted Gambit would ever have more than a small role because he's too similar to both Cyclops (powers-wise) and Wolverine (personality-wise).
