Channing Tatum says he'll "drop the Mardis Gras mask" and tone down his Gambit accent for Avengers: Doomsday - "I'm not gonna go full Cajun"

Channing Tatum as Gambit in Deadpool and Wolverine.

Channing Tatum's nigh-unintelligible Cajun accent in Deadpool and Wolverine was intentionally absurd, but he's toning it down for Avengers: Doomsday in order to "keep the drama and keep it tight." Tatum tells Variety that he's "not gonna go full Cajun," promising that his character will play a serious role in the film.

Tatum says Marvel executives "had to wrap their mind around the accent," as it's to make sure his dialogue will be easily understandable in Avengers: Doomsday, as opposed to his exaggerated, joking accent in his previous MCU appearance.
