Back at the end of 2014, Sony had a massive data breach that saw "thousands of private documents, emails, and phone numbers" for Sony employees leaked.

As part of that leak, private correspondence from executives and actors and talent went public. One such email that made it out on the internet was a message Channing Tatum enthusiastically relayed upon seeing 22 Jump Street's opening box office numbers.

It's become affectionately referred to as the "HAHA" email.

Channing Tatum's Sony "HAHA" email leak.

Vince Vaughn recently made headlines during a Hot Ones interview where he explained why the types of R-rated comedies that made him famous aren't being made anymore. Effectively calling the genre these days being put on "life support" he attributed the lack of support behind these films a direct result of top executives "overthinking it."

While Deadpool and Wolverine blended these R-rated humor with the superhero genre with fantastic results, culminating in over $1.3 billion at the global box office, 22 Jump Street's $60 million opening box office weekend in June of 2014 was a big deal.

That's because, at the time, it was the second highest R-rated film opening ever. And he was quick to let the team behind the film know how elated he was.

X user Trung Phan commented on the leak and Tatum's joy, writing: "Since 21 Jump Street is trending, never forget this email that Channing Tatum sent to Sony execs after 22 Jump Street had the second biggest opening for an R-rated comedy ever (leapfrogging Ted)."

Is Channing Tatum's 'Gambit' movie finally happening?

The Blink Twice star became an instant meme after his appearance in Deadpool & Wolverine. The star has made it known for years that he's dreamed of playing the Cajun mutant sensation with a penchant for kinetic energy. And it seems that his cameo in the raunchy superhero comedy may have helped speak that into existence.

Screen Rant published a lengthy op-ed on why they believe a potential Tatum Gambit flick would be a great idea. The author stated that the flick would fit perfectly as part of Marvel's purported "Mutant Saga" over-arching project that's supposed to include multiple films.

The outlet went on to speak with Tatum, who said that he's currently in talks with Marvel head honcho Kevin Feige. Tatum was quoted as saying: "I’m not going to bore everybody with what we were trying to do with our [Gambit] film, but it was an origin story that we were doing. We were trying to make something that actually would be in the world and could play with Deadpool. You put Deadpool in a lot of scenes with other MCU characters, and he could possibly just make fun of them the entire time. But he wouldn’t, because Ryan loves comics and he loves Marvel."

The actor went on to state: "I would do pretty much any version of Gambit, to be honest. I think we will, hopefully. At least I’m talking to Kevin, and I just want to be in any MCU stuff. To get to dress up again as him would be enough. I felt like [Deadpool & Wolverine] was truly a make-a-wish sort of thing that my friend did for me."

He concluded by stating: "It was like, 'Come in, and I’ll let you dress up as your favorite superhero character.' I was having an out-of-body experience just standing next to Hugh. It was like, 'Oh, my God, there’s Wolverine. There’s Blade! Elektra — everyone’s here, this is wild.' Your mouth to God’s ears, friend. Help me will it into existence."
