Being an actor is a job that requires someone to live in many different people. Sometimes they are real people with real problems. Other times, they are fantastic creatures with equally fantastic abilities. Being a man trying to play someone with such abilities comes with his own unique set of challenges, and Channing Tatum has learned that the hard way to play his role as a Gambit of the "Doomsday" set.

In a recent broad interview with DiversityThe Magic Mike Starval revealed that he had injured his leg while filming a fight for "Doomsday", directed by OEO Rousseau and Anthony Rousseau ("Avengers: Infinite War", "Avengers: Endegam"). Tatum first played the favorite Mutant Gambit In last year's smash hit "Deadpool & Wolverine". But filming with the strongest heroes on earth was, obviously, more taxation of his body.

While the specifics of the injury remain a little unclear, Tatum revealed that he suffered an injury while filming "resulting in taking pain medication and will require intense physical therapy". He was now sitting for a big part of his face, with his trick doubling the lion's part of the more intense filming process. For Tatum, the arrival to deal with aging and injuries that can bring is difficult, as he explained:

"It's not about the pain I feel at the moment. Knowing that I can't get this back. And now I know how the next six months of my life will be ... I just hate to get older ... In my mind, I literally have 30 years - 26, if I'm honest."

Tatum is just a small part of the massive acting "Avengers: Doomsday"led by Robert Downey Runior as a malicious doctor Doom.

Although Tatum may not be the primary star of the film, he did not use his opportunity easily. Nor does he phone it, as confirmed by the injury. It is worth remembering that Tatum fought for years to get a movie "Gambit" made in FoxBut that dream finally ended in 2019 when Disney bought Fox. However, his unexpected turnaround at Deadpool & Wolverine opened the door to play the role of the biggest possible scene in the mass film "Avengers". And it sounds like this is much more than Kimo.

"We had tons of more shootings," Tatum added in the same interview, teasing a "big fight" with Donny's doctor. The injury was obviously something serious, though, as prescribed by some effective pain medications that he did not take before the interview, in his words, "so I would not fall asleep on you and hug my body is not doing well with codeine - and those painkillers given to me."

It sounds like Tatum will be fine, though, even if it is a little failure. Actors are often detrimental to their art. Jackkeepi Chan damn near himself by shooting "armor of God", Not to mention the many broken bones he has endured over the years. Daniel Craig was seriously injured several times while filming his films "Jameseims Bond". Can come with the territory. Playing pretends can pose a very real risk of damage to one's body.

As for Tatum's future like Gambit? It is slightly up in the air. "Doomsday" will help open the way "Avengers: Secret Wars", which will close the multiviral saga in December 2027. Whether or not Tatum remains in "secret wars". If he lives through that battle with a doctor doom, it seems to be a strong opportunity.

"Avengers: Doomsday" should hit theaters on December 18, 2026.
