Next Up In Film. Among the finalists in this contest was none other than Gambit, who defeated Wolverine in combat. Nevertheless, it is still impressive that Gambit made it that far at all. Gambit's inclusion among Marvel's strongest heroes is not treated as a surprise or fluke within the series itself, but a natural result of his power and control. In the New Sun story arc from the Gambit series that ran from to , a version of Gambit from an alternate universe is introduced as an Omega Level mutant and a world-ending threat.
Hijack is easily defeated, however Input is another story. Input uses his telepathic abilities to enter Gambit's head and discovers there are still left-overs from Remy's "Death" persona. Death re-emerges and defeats Input, and absorbed him into a playing card, which turns black upon doing so. Afterward, Remy somehow returns back to normal, with a smile on his face.
Gambit then completes his mission, destroys the chair, and returns to the X-Men. When he made it back to Utopia, Gambit got angry at Cyclops for letting Rogue go up against the villain Emplate all alone. Remy tried to argue with Cyclops, but suddenly got trouble with mood swings and left the group.
He changed back into his Death persona, and remembered how Apocalypse told him he would never be the same after undergoing the changing process. Gambit managed to calm himself down and transform back to his normal self, but he is worried about his condition. Things go wrong when the ground starts to tremble and an army of monstrous demons attack the team. Dazzler calls upon Gambit for help during the attack, but Gambit sinks into the darkness, claiming "Remy's not home right now" leading the X-Men to be overwhelmed by the demons and Gambit transforming into his Death persona.
In limbo Gambit becomes completely taken over by the death persona. The demons of limbo no longer attempt to attack Gambit and see him as a larger, more evil threat. Gambit quickly finds Dazzler and Northstar and turns them into dark versions of themselves.
Dazzler and Northstar take on a pitch black form with red eyes like Gambit. Gambit enslaves several demons to create an army for himself and goes about trying to take over Limbo.
He and his brainwashed servants take on Anole, Pixie and Cannonball. He eventually gains the upperhand but is knocked out when Magik stabs him with her soulsword. While unconcious, Gambit manages to supress his Death persona and regain control of himself. Gambit continues to struggle with his Death persona, choosing to completely isolate himself from the X-Men while trying to control himself. Precognitive X-Man Blindfold has a vision of great danger however in which Gambit as Death features as a possible cause of the danger.
Blindfold approaches Gambit and asks to speak to Death in order to determine if he is the threat. Death says that the X-Men are inconsequential to him and that he only wishes to be free from his prison within Gambit's mind. Gambit then regains control and sends her away. After X leaves the X-Men in order to find herself, Gambit volunteers to come with her and look after her, since he himself has things he wants to deal with.
They have since made it back to New York. After picking X up at midnight he dropped her off at one of his apartments, with no word about his date. During the Avengers vs. X-Men war, Gambit faced the living legend - Captain America, and after a short battle, he was knocked unconcious by the Avenger.
He prefers to charge smaller objects, such as his ever-present playing cards, as the time required to charge them is greatly reduced and they are much easier for him to throw. The only real limitation to this ability is the time required to charge the object. The larger it is, the more time it takes to charge it. Most charging takes place through direct skin contact. The power of his explosions is dependent on the mass of the object he is charging, for example, a charged playing card explodes with the force of a grenade.
Gambit can also use his mutant abilities to accelerate an object's kinetic energy instead of converting its potential energy; for example, he can charge his Bo staff with enough kinetic energy and power to level a house. Gambit's ability can also be used to inject into organic lives opponent , it can stimulate their physical potential and make them move or attack with additional momentum.
Enhanced Agility : Gambit's ability to tap energy also grants him superhuman agility and dexterity which gives him an added edge he has used to his advantage by developing a unique acrobatic fighting style. Static Interference : Gambit can create static, because of the charged potential energy that's always in his body, that shields his mind from detection and intrusion by even the most powerful of telepaths. The shield has the added effect of destabilizing touch-based powers.
Hypnotic Charm : Ability to "charge" the kinetic energy within a person's brain, allowing a subtle influence over any sentient mind. This power allows Gambit to compel others to believe what he says and agree with anything he suggests. More powerful minds have proven immune to Gambit's charm. Toxic Transmutation : As Death, he has the ability to convert inert materials into toxic substances; for example, transforming breathable air into poisonous gases.
And Gambit has the potential to ingest diseases and plagues. Corruption : When reverting to Death in Limbo, Gambit displayed the ability to corrupt other creatures and subvert them to his will. This ability proved effective on both mutants and demons and when used on his fellow X-Men Northstar and Dazzler, they changed into an appearence that resembled his, deep black skin and white hair. Total Kinetic Control : Gambit was temporarily given his full potential to battle his counterpart New Son.
At his full power Gambit can control all aspects of kinetic energy up to even the molecular level, allowing him to fire energy blasts, defy gravity, heal wounds, charge objects within his line of sight without contact, additionally he can charge organic matter, blowing it up just by thinking about it and effectively exist as energy. He can also manipulate the potency of the energy release. He had the power necessary to cause another being to be unable to move or unable to stop if in motion.
He was able to cause or simulate various energies by manipulating the kinetic energy present, such as infrared and microwaves by increasing molecular agitation, or cold by reducing it. Precognition : Gambit was temporarily blinded due to a card in his hand being hit and exploding. During this period, he was able to 'see' images in his cards. Considering he has met a person with a similar ability, perhaps this was a learned skill rather than a quirk of his mutant powers.
Time Travel : Gambit was also able to use his powers to travel through time by transforming himself into living energy which joined with the kinetic flow. Regenerative Healing : Gambit was able to heal himself by stimulating his cellular activity. Appearances : Gambit's body did subsequently return to normal, suggesting that Gambit now has the ability to switch between his own and Death appearances.
After someone being contacted to Gambit's ability while Gambit is in his Death appearance, the person will end up his consciousness aggressed by Death, in order to become a puppet of Gambit. If Gambit's energy is completely engulfed, Gambit can seal that person,the opponent, into playing cards.
Expert Marksman : He is profound in throwing small objects, such as cards, bolas, knives and balls with great accuracy. I am currently re-watching the X-Men animated series of As I remembered, there is no special focus on any specific X-Men character in the series. The X-Men appearance order in the intro is. Among the X-Men featuring in the intro, Jubilee is given no substantial role in the movies, while Gambit is included only as a side character in X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
Is there any specific reason expressed by the actors, directors, producers or any other relevant person explaining why Gambit was mostly omitted from the X-Men Cinematic Universe? It's probably largely due to the fact that his character was one of many points that comic fans reacted negatively to in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Back in , I believe, there were attempts to try and rectify this with a solo Gambit film, with Channing Tatum in the lead, the idea being that maybe they could redeem the character like they did with Deadpool.
However, the solo Gambit movie went through development hell, and issues regarding directors, writers, and scripts caused constant delays. Also, since the recent Disney-Fox merger, Deadpool is the only character not being recast, and The New Mutants film seems to be getting released next year, although that largely just seems to be able to use it to make some additional money, as that film was pretty much finished.
Gambit has had his own eponymous film in development. This would likely have been his first major appearance, but it's been a troubled production. Prior to that, he had a brief scene in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Sign up to join this community.
