'Deadpool & Wolverine' deleted scene teases this scene-stealing character could return

Channing Tatum isn't finished making a name for himself.
Ryan Reynolds took to Instagram Tuesday to share a deleted scene from Marvel's "Deadpool & Wolverine" featuring more of Tatum in his scene-stealing role of Gambit. The scene also confirmed that Tatum's character survived the events of the film, suggesting he could return in a future project.
The extra moment takes place after the fight sequence in which Deadpool, Wolverine, Gambit and other heroes take on Cassandra Nova's (Emma Corrin) forces. In the new clip, Gambit is seen in the aftermath of the fight. As he turns around, orange light reflecting on his face indicates that a portal has appeared in front of him, implying he is about to escape from the Void.
"*whispers* Marvel Sparkle Circle," Reynolds captioned the clip, referencing the playful name for Doctor Strange's portals in the film. The actor also revealed that a "version" of this scene is already in the film playing in the "deep background" on one of the monitors at the Time Variance Authority headquarters.

In "Deadpool & Wolverine," the title heroes are sent to a "void" at the end of time, where various Marvel characters from other universes have ended up. One of them is Gambit, played by Tatum in a surprise appearance.
For years, the "Magic Mike" actor was expected to star in a Gambit movie that never happened, so "Deadpool & Wolverine" allowed him to finally suit up in the role after that project fell apart.
Since "Deadpool & Wolverine" debuted and was a massive hit at the box office, Tatum has said he hopes this will not be a one-off appearance. On "The Tonight Show," the actor joked he would "kill kittens" if it meant he would be able to star in a Gambit solo movie.
"I would do lots of terrible things to make that happen," he quipped.
Tatum previously reflected on X that after his Gambit film was canceled, he thought he had lost the role forever until Reynolds recruited him for "Deadpool & Wolverine."

"(Reynolds) fought for me and Gambit," Tatum wrote. "I will owe him probably forever. Cause I'm not sure how I could ever do something that would be equal to what this has meant to me. I love ya buddy."
On Friday, Reynolds revealed another scene that was cut from the film, which featured a cameo from "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" star Rob McElhenney as a TVA soldier.
"While editing a movie, they say you 'sometimes have to kill your darlings,'" Reynolds said on Instagram. "And with a heavy heart (and through great outside intervention) I had to kill a darling with this cameo…"
He added, "The sequence wasn't working the way we'd originally constructed it. Rob was the only reason it stayed in the cut for as long as it did, because even under a TVA mask and helmet, you can feel him smoldering with a raw and almost infinite reservoir of talent, writerly wit and 'I create hit tv shows' swagger."
McElhenney had previously joked when the film debuted, "I traveled 6 thousand miles to shoot my cameo. I hope you enjoyed it because the theater I was watching in had mistakenly cut it out. Since I KNOW Ryan wouldn't do me like that, I look forward to catching the movie and my cameo again today."
