GAMBIT Gets 2016 Release Date; ASSASSIN'S CREED And THE FANTASTIC FOUR 2 Set

What a way to start the New Year, eh? Channing Tatum has already been confirmed as playing Gambit in his own solo movie (and presumably X-Men: Apocalypse as well), but we now know that the movie will reach us on October 7th, 2016. Robocop scribe Josh Zetumer is penning the screenplay based on a treatement written by legendary X-Men writer Chris Claremont, the man who created the character alongside Jim Lee in 1990. The Fantastic Four 2 - it's happening whether you like it or not - will now reach us a little earlier on June 2nd, 2017, with the currently untitled Dawn of the Planet of the Apes sequel taking its original July 14th, 2017 slot. Finally, Assassin's Creed has FINALLY been given another release date as it has been confirmed as hitting on December 21st, 2016. Which of these movies are you guys most looking forward to?

I guess in the new timeline Gambit's father [frick]s another woman and that's how he looks different.

I think we can all agree, if ANY comic book character is deserving of their own solo film....

It's Gambit.

It really sucks that Planet of the Apes 3 got pushed back. But if it means that it will allow the film to reach its full potential, then great.

There is a movie called Gambit already, right? So it'll be X-Men Origins: Gambit? I doubt they will bring back the Origins subtitle. What do you guys think it will be titled?

Ummm can Gambit hold his own movie? Don't get me wrong, I like the character but I personally always saw him as a solid supporting character.

looks like fox really understands how big the x men universe truly is... a lot of the x men could handle their own movies. we might get a proper x men universe now
