Channing Tatum 'Gambit' Cajun Accent In 2015.

Channing Tatum's portrayal of Gambit has been a long time coming for fans of the X-Men comic book series. Originally slated for a standalone film, the project faced numerous setbacks, leaving fans disappointed. However, a brief but memorable cameo in the film Deadpool & Wolverine finally brought the character to the big screen, albeit in a much-anticipated yet truncated appearance.

Gambit, a charismatic Cajun mutant with the ability to charge objects with kinetic energy, is a character deeply rooted in Louisiana culture. The character's Cajun accent is a hallmark of his identity, adding a distinctive charm and flair to his personality. While Tatum, a native of Alabama, doesn't share Gambit's Southern roots, he has proven his ability to convincingly adopt accents in previous roles.

Unfortunately, the brevity of Tatum's appearance in Deadpool & Wolverine didn't allow for an extensive showcase of his Cajun accent. Nonetheless, the glimpse fans got of the character was enough to reignite excitement for a potential full-fledged Gambit film in the future.

With the character's popularity and Tatum's evident enthusiasm for the role, there's still hope that fans will one day see a more substantial portrayal of Gambit on the big screen.

"Whoo I'ma bout to makea name for myself "

“Who is your dialect coach, the minions?”

As someone with a Cajun lineage who has lived most of her life in central / south Louisiana, it made me so incredibly happy to hear the good ole Cajun accent in a blockbuster movie like this one - and one that was performed SO WELL.
I had made the joke to my friends that he "sounds like one of my cousins from down the bayou". My little Cajun heart was made SO HAPPY by his performance.

Tatum nailed the accent, but at the same time I can't help but hear Deadpool asking him to repeat himself :p

[shotty]

Funny thing abkut this is my grandfathers 1st language was Cajun French. He didn’t learn English until he went to school, he used to read me this book just like this. And “this and that and them and those” or as he said “dis and dat and dem and doze”

[PhantomZoNE]

As a Louisianan I’m so happy I want a Channing Tatum gambit movie now marvel

[conchaso]

Dude killed it.

Give this man his movie🙏🏿

[VGGamess]

That man Tatum put a little more flavor on it for the movie “wooo im finna make a name fo my self here!” 😂🔥🔥

[zacharytrangmar]

As a fellow Cajun dude from South of Lafayette, his role as gambit was spot on. Laissez Les Bon Temps Rouler babayyy ⚜️

[slpy.flower]

The Deadpool and Wolverine memes so far are so good 😭

[Dootteh]

"Who was your dialect coach? The Minions?!"

[frankbombaci]

All y’all not from Louisiana hating when we true heads know he did a great job

[sovkhan]

Pretty spot on. It’s a very good attempt and isn’t cringey, which cannot be said for most Americans trying to do a traditional English accent 🤣

[zzzzzz]

There are people saying his accent is all over the place, but locals here say he passed, so consensus is.... yay or nay on Gambit's Cajun accent?

[terrealexander]

Logan with the "I don't think you guys walk away from this"😂😂😂

[kylescott]

Its okay to dislike the accent. But you cant deny everything else was almost 100% accurate. He loved the character and it shows.

[Shoxpyre]

when i saw it in the theater I thought he KILLED the role, and when he whipped out the staff I about jumped out of my seat man

[JayMarrero-]

Give this man his well deserved movie for f##& sakes!!!

[MichaelNight]

What people don't realize is that his Cajun accent was pretty spot on. Some people wrongly seem to believe that it sounds like a cross between a southern accent and a hispanic one.

[relentlesschaos]

I'll remember that line in Deadpool where he said where he shoot out from before he was an infant baby😂
