Lost star, Josh Holloway, who plays the conman Sawyer in the cult
plane crash TV series, has been approached by studio bosses to play
Gambit - a mutant who can charge objects with kinetic energy and
make them explode.
He told TV Hits magazine: We had a meeting and they wanted me to
play Gambit, the card dealer character, they thought Id be perfect
for the part. Well see.
Holloways announcement has confirmed rumours 20th Century Fox are
to make another film after the success of the previous three
instalments.
The 37-year-old actor is keen to play a superhero because he wants
to wear a pair of tights.
Holloway said: I would love to play a superhero. Id love to wear
a cape and tights!
The hunky star isnt worried about performing his own stunts if he
lands the role, because he is a real-life action man.
He explained: I hike and kayak and I have a boat, because I enjoy
fishing. I grew up in the mountains where its all lakes and
streams, so a lot of my life has been an adventure getting to know
the ocean.
