‘X-Men ’97’ Star Officially Reveals Live-Action ‘X-Men’ Audition [Exclusive]

Comments

1. Leor: i'm surprised he didn't get more traction for Gambit after that cameo in the X-Men film, though
2. Max Larp: you'd think they'd remember being this torn about the role. was gambit that good?
3. Fractal Signal: it was bound to come out that he had auditioned for more than just Gambit
4. Lenakaur: you said gambit but still went cyclops, what were you thinking with that audition?
5. Ruby: pardon me, but i thought the live-action franchise was more about establishing the younger crowd. 👀
6. Lenakaur: Chris Potter's tied to Gambit? not buying it, what actually happened behind closed doors?
7. Zoe: thought i remember seeing him pitch cyclops as a side gig from his gamit days. doesn't change how he nailed the character though
8. Nova: Chris Potter's just as stuck on Gambit as Raul Burchel still thinks he was meant for Wolverine
9. Miad: Loved Chris Potter on the animated series, he was always so charming as Rictor. Can't believe they didn't go with him for Gambit though 🙅‍
10. Solar Warden: Chris Potter would've crushed Cyclops if they'd let him do it, but I love that he's still tied to Gambit - there's something about Remy LeBe
11. Ravi: who could've been cyclops? anyway, that caption is from x-men: the animated series, which i still haven't gotten through. guess potter's stuck in my head
12. Junepetrov: Chris Potter's actually Gambit, not Cyclops - that little tidbit didn't stick with me from the animated show. Still fun to imagine though
13. Static Nova: finally understood why he's perfect for Gambit, that Cyclops audition story is hilarious
14. Omar: still waiting for someone to ask him about the time he actually tried to get the Cyclops/Scott Summers costume right, though
15. Marek: didn't he get passed up for a more "serious" actor, or something?
