Channing Tatum Bails on New ‘X-MEN: Apocalypse’ Movie after Jenna Dewan Car Crash?

Despite all the hype that Magic Mike was going to be making an appearance in the new XMEN: Apocalypse movie, it now looks like Channing Tatum is going to pass on the star studded project. According to the latest gossip news updates, Jonah Hill's 22 Jump Street partner is holding out on making his debut as Gambit until he gets a Marvel movie all his own. Meanwhile, Channing isn't the only one in the family getting into misadventures in Hollywood -- his Witches of East End wife, Jenna Dewan, has also been busy getting herself into trouble. Jenna recently got into a traffic accident in L.A. just trying to park her car.

Just as of yesterday, very credible sources like MTV where still reporting that Channing Tatum was gearing to make his first appearance as Gambit in the Marvel movie, XMEN: Apocalypse:

"They'll be joined by even more mutants, including Olivia Munn as the telekinetic Psylocke, potentially Channing Tatum as the roguish Gambit (more on that in a moment), and all going up against the villainous, titular Apocalypse, played by Oscar Isaac."

Checking in with the man himself, however, you get a completely different story, as Channing recently explained that when he makes his mutant debut he doesn't really want everyone talking about Jennifer Lawrence and Michael Fassbender (via IGN):

"You know, I don't know if I'm at liberty to say.

"But I don't think I want to introduce Gambit until you can really explain who Gambit is."

Just because Channing's wife, Jenna Dewan, is out of work, following her TV show, Witches of East End, getting cancelled, doesn't me she hasn't been signing a few autographs here and there around L.A.

In fact, E! News reports one lucky fan even got an entire note the other day when Dewan got into a little fender bender with an unmanned vehicle while pulling into a parking garage near her Sunset Strip salon appointment:

"I'm so sorry I accidentally hit the front left side of your car! Please forgive me."

While Jenna, of course, went on to include her name and contact information along with the mea culpa -- depending on the car's owner -- dinner and movie with her husband might be enough to forget the whole thing ever happened.
