And according to superherohype its…Taylor Kitsch!

Nope… I’ve no idea who he is either. He’s apparently in a US show called Friday Night Lights about American Football, which (being English) would explain why I haven’t seen it.

Having said that, he does look right for the role (look at the pic above, i’d say they have that pretty spot on for Gambit!) He’s apparently signed for a 3 picture deal, so he’s either going to be a major player in any upcoming X-Men movies/spin-offs… or the studio is playing it safe and can keep him around if he’s popular.

Already cast in X-Men Origins: Wolverine are Liev Schreiber as Sabretooth, Danny Huston as William Stryker, and Lynn Collins as Silver Fox.
