Channing fans, take a seat. Have a packet of tissues on hand. Brace yourself.

The 'Magic Mike 'star has apparently walked out of the 'Gambit'movie. And no one knows why.

Tatum was due to star as the lead in the X-Men spin-off, which he was promoting just recently at San Diego Comic-Con and even wore a Gambit T-shirt during it. But, according to The Wrap, he’s left the movie.

What’s more, losing its titular actor leaves the whole film in trouble now.

'Gambit'was supposed to be hitting cinemas inOctober 2016. So if Channing has officially left (sob!), they’ll have to find a new hero PRETTY SOON.

So, erm, know anyone who’s free at the moment and can dothe comic character's Cajun accent?
