X-Men's Gambit Gender-Flipped Cosplay Shows New Side of Hero
In an awesome cosplay, @anatylacosplay shows off her stunning take on the Gambit that takes the character in a different direction. In the Marvel Universe and comics, the card-slinging hero has managed to become a fan-favorite despite not being an original part of the core two big X-Men teams. However, his cool powers, personality, and appearance in Marvel's X-Men: The Animated Series have gained him quite the following, including being one of the most cosplayed mutants.
Gambit, whose real name is Remy LeBeau, was among the X-Men to debut during Chris Claremont and Jim Lee's iconic run on the popular Marvel Comics superteam. The hero is known for his ability to generate and manipulate kinetic energy, which he often channels through playing cards which he uses as his primary offensive attack. The Cajun sweet-talker is often paired up romantically with the X-Men Rogue, as they have starred in their own miniseries together. Gambit's popularity rose when he was one of the X-Men featured on the X-Men: The Animated Series cartoon, which is set to return on Disney+ in 2023.

The cosplay trades in Gambit's usual armored breastplate for a crop top, while the ensemble is accented with an X-Men belt and pink details throughout.
