If he gets the gig an at least one writer doesn't refer to the flick as 'Sugart*ts Squad' this will all have been a monumental waste of time 
He did. Kinda. He said that would be the one thing to get him to do Iron Man 4. It was part of a larger interview he did for Deadline but here's the mel portion:
DEADLINE: We have written often, suggesting that Mel Gibson be given another chance in Hollywood, after atoning for the regrettable things he said. Awhile back, when studios were reluctant to hire you and there were exorbitant insurance premiums, he put you in a movie, took care of all that and helped you when you needed it. As Hollywood’s best example that not giving up on a talented person can result in redemption, can you make a case for why he should be back directing and starring in movies again?
DOWNEY: Well, first off, he has changed so much. Nobody should make a case for somebody who just wants forgiveness but hasn’t changed, but he’s a fundamentally different guy. I think it was just the very worst aspects of somebody’s psyche being treated as though they were the blanket statement about a person. But honestly we are talking about a competitive business and it all comes down to this: because he is so gifted as a story teller and a director, I don’t know that he requires some sort of mass forgiveness. He has changed, but at the same time he’s still Mel. He and I are so similar in so many ways. He really, honestly is the first to admit his character defects and also is just a great, great collaborative guy. I always say too that if you want to judge a man or a woman then look at their kids. He has the healthiest, happiest, most productive kids you could ever meet or know, and I’m fortunate to be friendly with several of them. He did a lot right, and there’s stuff he taught me about parenting that didn’t sink in at the time but have proven to be true. We’re writing this thing right now, Yucatan…
DEADLINE: That’s the project Steve McQueen developed for himself.
DOWNEY: Yes, and I’m like, God, if I could find a part for Mel. But he also likes to do his own thing and sometimes he goes out of his way to do the unexpected. Sometimes with these things, it becomes a matter of time, and is seems like it’s getting a little bit old to hold a grudge.
DEADLINE: True, but the year he made Apocalypto, I didn’t see a better movie and he was ignored and hasn’t directed since. Marvel badly wants Iron Man 4 and you’ve said you aren’t doing it. How about the idea you’ll do that movie if Mel directs it?
DOWNEY: Correct.
DEADLINE: Is that our headline?
DOWNEY: Why not? That movie would be bananas.

Studio is also looking at Ruben Fleischer and Jonathan Levine. Ruben directed Zombieland and co wrote dead pool, Levine did Warm Bodies, The Wackness, 50/50 and was up for the spider man gig. He's also producing and directing the new Nas show

WB NEEDs to make this R though and honestly he wouldn't be a bad choice if WB would just back the fukk off.
I think if Logan proves to be a hit they'll go with it. Studios are superstitious.YO! Zombieland was underrated and lowkey the 4 of them were a suicide squad

didnt pay to see hacksaw ridge and not paying to see this. I'll enjoy the violent piff (if its rated r) but mel doesnt get a dime from me anymore
Were Kingsman and Deadpool not clear enough signs that audiences are ready for R rated comic movies?
