Hugh on Gambit:

Quote:

"Gambit is in the film. When we showed footage at Comic-Con the place just went mental. He’s played by Taylor Kitsch who does a great, great job.

He’s a little more showy than Wolverine, but there’s a similarity. They’re outsiders, they’re wise-cracking, they’re anti-authority.

In this movie Gambit plays the role a little bit like Wolverine did in the first X-Men. He’s not part of any group, he’s not on anybody’s side. Wolverine gets him because he needs the information off him, but Gambit’s not going to give it – not without a fight. And they get a fight, the two of them get a fight. I’m really, really happy with the dynamic between the two.

I quite liked Pyro in X-Men 2. I really loved that kind of relationship, because he turns to the dark side in a way. I always feel when I was acting that Wolverine could see a lot of himself in Pyro, y’know? The loose cannon.

And just a little aggressive, a little badass really and it’s the same with Gambit. Gambit’s got a little bit of that. A little showy, a little flashy, arrogant, so kind of Wolverine… They have a dynamic where they love giving each other ****. There’s some good stuff in there."

...and a fantastic sequence between Logan and Gambit. That one has more wire gags, because Gambit flies about with his cane, so there you're on a different level of fantasy.

More news:

Quote:

But Jackman wasn’t the only “Wolverine” star Katz raved about during our conversation. The comics-savvy Katz gushed about Ryan Reynolds’ portrayal of the “Merc with a Mouth,” Deadpool, as well as Taylor Kitsch’s performance as the card-tossing Cajun mutant, Gambit.

As for the other fan-favorite character making his big-screen debut, Katz had nothing but praise for Kitsch’s performance as Gambit, another mutant of questionable morals who rose to prominence in the ’90s as one of the most popular X-Men.

“There’s no question that I think Gambit’s going to play well,” said Katz. “Put Taylor in a trenchcoat and give him a staff, and watch out. He’s a tough kid, and he did a lot of his own stuff — and he looked like a million bucks doing it.”

And like Deadpool, Gambit experienced a few starts and stops along the way, too. “The discussion is always, ‘Is this a good use of this character or do we want to save them to fully use down the line?’ — and that was the Gambit debate in the original trilogy of movies,” explained Katz. “With the original trilogy, there was also the idea that he and Wolverine would have tried to fit the same space, and it would been awkward. They understood that Gambit was popular, but was it worth just popping him in as a throwaway character, and not in service of setting up something down the line? Now I think there is a level of strategy in how we grow these things, and what characters can transition between multiple films.”

Begins with music from the film Sunshine. Shows clips of Wolverine as a child, then as a soldier, and finally holding the body of (I think) Silver Fox. Sabretooth's claws scratch out a smily face, indicating his involvement with her death.

Striker talks Wolverine into joining a special team. Quick shots include Blob, Deadpool, Kestrel, and Silver Fox. Wolverine is offered a dogtag, and he says he wants it to say 'Wolverine'. He's placed into the adamantium chamber with Agent Zero overlooking the procedure. He breaks free, screaming and killing people. Zero shoots him repeatedly but it does nothing.

A high ranking military official tells Striker they invested half a billion dollars into making him invincible. Wolverine makes something behind him blow up. Wolverine goes to a card game and says 'I know who you are Gambit'. Gambit throws cards into a guy and sends him flying across the room, then swings a staff around.

Wolverine is shown battling Sabretooth, most of which is in slow motion. Sabretooth runs on all fours. There's lots of hopping before Wolverine tackles him through a sheet of glass. There are quick shots of Silver Fox, Blob fighting Wolverine, Gambit powering up his staff, Hummers chasing Wolverine whilst on a motorcycle, Emma Frost, young Logan with metal claws, Wolverine taking out a car then leaping at a helicopter and grabbing on.

Finally Sabretooth asks Wolverine 'Do you even know how to kill me?' to which Wolverine replies 'I'm gonna cut your head off and see if that works' to which Sabretooth smiles and shows his fangs.

Overall most of the footage is similar to the comic con preview, with extra dialogue, extended shots, and some reordering.
