Deadpool 2 has been a hot topic of conversation in recent weeks with conflicting test-audience responses, the usual internet panic over reshoots and the general trepidation when a sequel to a much-loved film is on the horizon. The discussion points haven't solely been on the film's quality, however, but also its content. 

As the second trailer for the FOX film revealed, Deadpool 2 will indeed see the mercenary form the Marvel Comics team X-Force. We already knew that Zazie Beets would be playing Domino and Brooklyn Nine-Nine actor Terry Crews is to play Bedlam, but there has been speculation about the other members of the team and who will be playing them.

Well shortly after that trailer dropped, Iron Fist and Into the Badlands' Lewis Tan has confirmed that he will indeed be playing Shatterstar. 

 

The gang is all here. Recognize someone? #xforce #deadpool2

Shatterstar is a genetically engineered, time-traveling and dimension-hopping warrior from Mojoworld who after traveling back in time and fighting against Domino and Cable became a founding member of X-Force. There are a number of rumors about the role that this version of the character and team is to play in the film, though the veracity of these can't be verified until it hits theatres on 18th May 2018.

What do you think of Lewis Tan's casting as Shatterstar? Are you a fan of the character? What would you like to see them do in the upcoming film? Leave your thoughts below.

Terry Crews isn’t playing GW Bridge. He’s playing Bedlam, the actor confirmed as much.

As for this, I think he could be interesting in the role and I can’t wait to see what role he will have in DP2 as well as future X-Force movies.

@aflynn - These cameos are actually getting me more worried. Hope its not like all the previous X-Men films where key characters from the comics are shoe horned in and wasted, hardly representing the characters from the comics.

@Magus - I am fairly confident that is what it is, many of the x-force members are gonna be throw aways other than domino and deadpool.

As much as I hated Iron Fist, this guy (on top of not even being a good actor) is whiny as hell. Kept crying about not getting the part, and wanting Marvel to change Danny's race as some sort of obligation to the community.

He's pretty much been implying that he would have made the show better.

Awesome, love Shatterstar. REALLY wish DP was a supporting character in X-Force, though I understand why he needs to be at the forefront

I love the character of Shatterstar so I hope they do him justice.

Imma be honest his part on Iron Fist was absolute shit just like the whole season. He’s not a good actor at all. He can whoop ya ass though but that doesn’t equate to much.
