Gambit and Nightcrawler returning for "X-Men: Apocaypse"???

Even though we are not getting "X-Men: Days Of Future Past" until the Summer of this year, Director Bryan Singer is already casting his eye forward in the X-Men franchise. During a recent interview Singer himself revealed he is looking at the possibility of Gambit and Nightcrawler returning for "X-Men: Apocalypse".

"I'm considering Gambit and potentially a young Nightcrawler for 'Apocalypse,'" Singer told the outlet (the quotes have, however, been translated back into English from Spanish). "I was going to have Nightcrawler [in 'Days of Future Past'] and even wrote a scene, but I felt that we were forcing too many mutants into the story."

For months now there has been talk of a Gambit stand alone film, which is causing a lot of excitement in the fan boy world. With names like Channing Tatum being floated around it is a little less exciting, I personally think Taylor Kitsch was a decent Gambit. However, I would love to see a new dude take over, Tom Mison, Josh Holloway or Alexander Skarsgard come to mind.
