Should Rogue Be In New Gambit Movie? Opinions on what the thiefs movie should be about

With no news in months from Hollywood about a the new Gambit movie, I decided to write about what I as a fan want to see in the new movie.

You can read about what I thought about Taylor's role as Gambit in X-Men Origens: Wolverine in an earlier post here: Review of Wolverine.

Who should play Gambit?
The actor needs to be someone with a lot of personality, some fans have brought up Brad Pitt and Orlando Bloom. Brad Pitt would be good, this would be his toughest challenge to pull off yet.

Rogue or not to Rogue?
Come on...if you've kept up with this site, you know definately to Rogue. What is Gambit without her? Just go back and watch the 90's cartoon series and you can see the great opportunities they have to put these two together on screen. They may have to restart her character, but with the coming restart of X-Men, that shouldn't interfere.

The bad guy(s)
Here is a much tougher choice. Gambit doesn't have a big-screen nemesis. Most of his conflicts are fairly small and not all that interesting. You could match him up against Deadpool, but the probability that he gets his own movie makes less than likely.

They would most likely do similar to Wolverine and start at his childhood. When he was a thief in New Orleans. Eventually you would have to decide on a deserving bad guy. My vote: Iceman for getting too close to Rogue in X-Men 1 & 2...and breaking her heart in #3.
