Wolverine's Origin Involves Gambit?

Taylor Kitsch has been cast to play Gambit in X-men: Origins Wolverine. Wait- What? How did the Cajun get into Canada to play a part in the Weapon X program?

Well, I guess this makes it offical, as if there were any doubt: This flick will have little to nothing to do with the Origin story that we have become familiar with, unless Gambit is part of a frame story.
