Deadpool 2: Rumored Contenders for Cable and Domino

Being depressed and being a moping p*ssy are two different things. The Joe Kelly Deadpool wouldn't grovel for another man (Cap's) approval . He was more like a self-destructive jerk who felt sorry for himself.

Exactly!!! He is essentially a completely different character today, and it's not even due to character development . The morons writing him today literally don't know shyt about him, they even canned his entire supporting cast . Deadpool is supposed to be a (funny) dikk, not a fall guy/lackey type.

Reynolds and company for understanding that basic fact about his character.

you can thank daniel way for his current predicament. turning a character into a 5 year poop joke pretty much got rid of his cast and history. current readers dont know who t-ray is, and blind al and weasel would be in the same boat if they werent in the movie. theyve pretty much have had to strong arm him out of the clown role, and i like him as he is. characters need to evolve.

Not sure why you guys think Deadpool 2 would be more of the same... It's pretty impossible to make the same kind of movie (love story/rescue mission). Also... Deadpool wasn't a comedy...

the comedy is the reason why it did numbers

Way is the WOAT. The videogame (which his germs are all over ) further perpetuated the perception that he was an over-the-top "joke" character rather than a "funny" character who you could take seriously. I like the movie version, but I can't say I know too much about the very latest Deadpool comics (Posehn and the other guy supposedly made him less Waypool).

Is Weasel back in the comics?

Inside the 'Deadpool 2' Fight Over 'Two Totally Different Movies' (Exclusive)

Soaring budgets and conflicting visions about story were at the heart of the creative rift between “Deadpool” star Ryan Reynolds and Tim Miller, that led to Miller leaving the director’s chair, multiple individuals told TheWrap.

The Saturday report that Miller would no longer return to helm the blockbuster’s sequel shocked fans, with both sides citing “creative differences” between Miller and his star as a reason. But those differences were vast, TheWrap has learned, and expanded to the long-devoted group at the film’s core.

A sequel to “Deadpool” was already in active development when the first went into production, one individual familiar with the project said.

Shortly after then-20th Century Fox CEO Jim Gianopulos confirmed a second movie at CinemaCon in April, cracks began to form in the creative team that also includes screenwriters Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick (“Zombieland”).

In initial sequel talks, Reynolds, Reese and Wernick envisioned a “scrappy,” raunchy and inexpensive movie, the insider said — in the vein of the first, which earned over $780 million worldwide on a $58 million budget. It’s a stunning return on a film Reynolds lobbied 11 years to make.

Miller, known more for his visual flair than for the brash antics that Reynolds and his writers embraced and that fans loved, wanted a more stylish take, one that would compete with mega-budget superhero movies, insiders said. But it would have cost three times as much as the original $58 million film, the first individual said.

“There were two totally different movies on the table, and one of them just wasn’t ‘Deadpool,” said the first insider, who is familiar with both concepts.

Reynolds, Reese and Wernick’s vision won.

One person said Gianopulos had been a “peacekeeper” between director and star during the production on the first film. He handed the reigns to Stacey Snider on Sept. 1, who has had input on a situation largely handled by 20th Century Fox President of Production Emma Watts.

Another party close to Fox said executives did not have to step in to manage relationships until well after the first film’s release.

Miller pivoted immediately to another priority Fox project, an adaptation of Daniel Suarez’s cyber-crime thriller “Influx."

“Deadpool 2” does not currently have a release date. It was written by Reese and Wernick, and will feature popular character Domino, who, like Deadpool, is a former mercenary.

The part is hotly coveted, and those who have screen-tested for it include Kelly Rohrbach, Eve Hewson, Ruby Rose, Mackenzie Davis, Lizzy Caplan, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Sienna Miller, Sofia Boutella, Stephanie Sigman and Sylvia Hoeks.

Sequel needs a bigger budget. Not an Avengers budget, but a bigger one nonetheless.

It's Official: 'John Wick' Director David Leitch to Helm 'Deadpool 2'

Fox lost Tim Miller as the director to the X-Men spin-off sequel. Miller, who was an integral part of the first movie, which opened in February this year, exited the project over "creative differences" with star Ryan Reynolds.

Leitch's name surfaced just days after Miller's exit, although the producers and studio had filmmakers such as Rupert Sanders, Drew Goddard and Magnus Martens on their to-meet list. Leitch met with Reynolds in New York and was offered the gig soon after.

At the same time, Fox and the producers are also putting into motion Deadpool 3 and will be searching for a separate filmmaker to tackle that installment.

Leitch is well versed in action movie parlance. He made his directorial debut co-directing Wick, the Keanu Reeves revenge thriller, with Chad Stahelski. Before that, however, he and Stahelski spent years as stunt coordinators and second unit directors, creating a stunt company named 87eleven.

He recently wrapped filming on his second feature, The Coldest City, a Cold War thriller starring Charlize Theron.

Leitch is repped by WME, Kelly McCormick and Gang Tyre.

Comedies that use the same formula in their sequels never perform well critic wise or BO wise.

Ex. Hangover 2, Neighbors 2, Weekend at Bernie's 2 etc.

Which is why there's few great sequels that are comedies

was just about to mention this as I scrolled down. It's gonna be hangover 2. Shoulda let tim miller cook

 

[Art Barr]

No.

Steiner lost his pectoral muscles when he had emergency surgery on his trachea.
So, visually it would not work and steiner can not act.
Personally, just get Gerard Butler and be done with it.
Or the old cat used in the sam rami movie who was blind.
