With the news in the past week that Channing Tatum is confirmed to play Remy LeBeau, aka Gambit in the future X-Men franchise and the release next month of the sequel to 21 Jump Street.

We thought it only right to have a look at the why we are following Channing on Instagram.

1. Over the past year he has been one busy little bee, including becoming a father for the 1st time. Here’s a look at his year in pictures.
