| Character back story/resides:
Gambit's place of birth was in or around New Orleans. Remy considers himself a Cajun with his roots firmly grounded in the Big Easy where he spent his youth, and he speaks with a Cajun accent. As shown in Gambit #1, Gambit was stolen as a baby by the Thieves Guild for someone called the Antiquary but was later taken and hid from the Antiquary by Jean-Luc LeBeau among a group of young street urchins, the unwanted offspring of assassins and thieves, under the Dickensianly-named Fagin.
Gambit Guild | | Inspiration for character:Marvel Comics' X-men series | | Personality type:Taylor describes Gambit as "Cocky like a young Wolverine" (in Tv Guide March 15-21 2009) | Signature look: 'Flapjack' hat, wears a bit of purple (tones colors), always w/ Playing cards & staff also
Red irises on black sclera
Gambit's eyes have been this way since birth. Gambit's eyes are also known to glow and sparkle in conjunction with the use of his mutant powers and his moods. (from Gambit Guild) | Character connections: Wolverine
 | Fun facts/trivia:
- The Canadian hunk, 28, plays a mutant with attitude in the film. But, he says, he had to fake it – for a while, anyway. "When I first got there [I was] nervous," Kitsch says. "And when I ... met [Jackman], it was really great." To get psyched up to play a New Orleans thief with a gift for killer card-throwing, Kitsch turned on his iPod and listened to the bluesy John Lee Hooker "all the time," he says.
- “We were in a fight scene,” Jackman said, “and Taylor reeled back quickly and someone called, ‘Cut!’ I looked down at my claws and there were only two left. I looked over at Taylor and it was sticking out of his thumb. He was just looking at it.”
“Those were some good memories,” Taylor joked. “He stabbed me and I bled – a lot.” - Taylor kitsch puts muscle to good use in Wolverine Taylor Kitsch was way ahead of his "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" co-stars in one way: He didn't have to go through a lengthy exercise regimen to build the strength to play superhero Gambit..So, Kitsch spent his prep time playing cards.
- When asked if he uses the card tricks in his personal life (w/ friends & family) he says.. "I know how to do them, but I don't do them w/ my friends. I'm going to learn the real good stuff that magicians know. I trained with a magician for the shoot, & I think I've started to loosen him up to give me some of the real stuff." ...Its a prettyu cool thing to know. Shuffling & cutting the deck with one hand..(which his expert tried to teach herself...& think she may need a helping hand) dealing with one hand.
