Ryan Reynolds has shared a behind-the-scenes video from his recent blockbuster Deadpool & Wolverine. The BTS clip reveals Gambit surviving The Void. The shot has set off the guessing game yet again, with fans trying to understand what could possibly happen before and after this scene, which did not make it to the final cut.
In the clip, we see Gambit, played by actor Channing Tatum walking past several dead bodies in what looks like the aftermath of the X-Men‘s fight against Cassandra Nova’s army.

Ryan Reynolds hints at Gambit's return
According to Ryan, the particular shot might have been deleted, but it can vaguely be seen in one of the monitors at a distance when Mr Paradox shows Deadpool the future of Sacred Timeline. Considering the scene at TVA happens early in the movie, and Gambit's BTS shot later, it suggests there's a lot more that happened with Channing's character that was not shown to us.
Another crucial point is Ryan captioning the clip on Instagram as, "*whispers* Marvel Sparkle Circle #DeadpoolAndWolverine. A version of the sequence is in the film — on one of the monitors in the deep background of the TVA." Channing, in the tone of Gambit commented, "heeeheee! Laissez les bon temps rouler! Let the times roll Cher!"
Fans' guessing game begins!
As soon as fans read the term "Marvel Sparkle" and a golden circle in a close-shot of Gambit's eyes, they quickly guessed that Doctor Strange's teleporting circle has a role here and might just transfer Gambit from The Void onto the Sacred Timeline, opening up another possibility of the character's re-appearance in future MCU films.

More on Gambit
A standalone movie starring Channing Tatum and tracing the origin of Gambit was announced by Marvel Studios in 2014. However, for reasons unknown, the movie never took off.
Now, with Channing reprising the role in Deadpool & Wolverine and the kind of reception he got, fans have solidified their demand to revive the film on Gambit. Though nothing has been confirmed by Marvel so far.
