"Look, everyone in the world is going to see this movie," Tatum told Deadline. "It's hard to say this because, I mean, you hear these things and go, 'Of course'. But they've topped themselves every time. This will be the biggest movie of next year and maybe even the next 10 years."

The actor revealed that his excitement began after reading the first draft of the screenplay and witnessing its execution on set. Even with limited details, his comments promise a breathtaking cinematic experience.
"The scope of it, what they're trying to do… what the Russos have cooked up – when I read it, I was just like, 'How are they going to do this?'. It was an Everest of a mountain to climb. I am still in awe," Tatum said.

Tatum hinted that Gambit will be an active player in the storyline. Though the actor sustained a hamstring injury while filming one of the action scenes, he emphasized that it didn't stop the intensity of his performance or the action-driven nature of the film.
