An anonymous "insider" has written Cinescape with an unconfirmed scoop regarding the role of Gambit in X-MEN 3.

Here is what our scooper had to say:

I can tell you that (the part of) Gambit has been (cast with) a relatively unknown, well completely unknown actually! I scoured and can only confirm that he has done some stage work in Chicago and maybe a few lower budgeted independent films. The name is Scott Madej. He will be playing good ol' Remy. That's all i know. I am 99% sure on that tidbit, and it will be announced early next week, possibly on Monday.

Again, we don't have a confirmation of this. It has to be considered a rumor at the moment.
