FAN ART: PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN Star Keira Knightley Shows Off Her Range As 'CABLE' In DEADPOOL 2

"She's got range, who knows?" - The talented BossLogic has released his latest fan art piece, this time depicting Keira Knightley as the time-traveling Cable in the recently green-lit Deadpool 2!

Apologies to the five of you reading this article who may have not gotten around to watching the hilarious Ferris Bueller-inspired end credits of Deadpool yet, but during the second-half of that post-credits sequence, Ryan Reynolds' Merc with a Mouth revealed that the popular X-Men/X-Force character Nathan Summers a.k.a. Cable, son of Scott Summers & Madelyne Pryor, would be making his big-screen debut in the now highly-anticipated sequel. He even offered a few suggestions on who could play the part with Mel Gibson & Dolph Lundgren being the first two names out of his mouth, but then he really brought the house down with his third suggestion - Keira Knightley.

Even though it's unlikely to happen (although she does have range, so who knows?) the talented BossLogic has done a mockup of what the Pirates of the Caribbean actress would potentially look like as the time-traveling mutant, who is set to join Mr. Pool on his next adventure. Check it out below:

So, what do you guys think? Personally, I'd prefer Tom Cruise (Collateral) as Cable, I mean sure he's probably a foot short, but if he can successfully pull off Jack Reacher, he can certainly pull off Cable. Sound off with your thoughts on Knightley, and whoever you'd like to see as Cable, below!

Based upon Marvel Comics’ most unconventional anti-hero, DEADPOOL tells the origin story of former Special Forces operative turned mercenary Wade Wilson, who after being subjected to a rogue experiment that leaves him with accelerated healing powers, adopts the alter ego Deadpool. Armed with his new abilities and a dark, twisted sense of humor, Deadpool hunts down the man who nearly destroyed his life.

Deadpool features:
Director: Tim Miller
Ryan Reynolds as Wade Wilson/Deadpool
Morena Baccarin as Vanessa Carlysle/Copycat
Ed Skrein as Francis/Ajax
Gina Carano as Angel Dust
T.J. Miller as Jack Hammer/Weasel

Stefan Kapicic as Piotr Rasputin/Colossus
Leslie Uggams as Blind Al
Jed Rees as The Recruiter
Karan Soni as Dopinder
Rachel Sheen as Weasel's Wife
Taylor Hickson as Meghan Orlovsky

Please no ....

@MagnusShadowX -

i agree, cable needs to stay male
but keira knightly should have a chance to audition for domino

and i remember Michael biehn was rumoured,
i would love to see that, he would be the right age, and with some bulking up, could be the perfect choice, also if that was happening mister sinister might be on the cards,
i would like to see idris elba or Jason Isaacs nab that role

PeterDarker121 - 2/16/2016, 11:53 AM

@Arkady - Good choices, especially Knightly as Domino

glades7 - 2/17/2016, 4:02 AM

@PeterDarker121 - She was Domino Harvey already, I like it

venkman83 - 2/15/2016, 9:31 PM

no no no. enough gender swapping

Yaf - 2/16/2016, 12:36 AM

@venkman9993592 - It's a joke, relax.

venkman83 - 2/26/2016, 10:29 AM

@Yaf - You never know these days. Thor - Woman. All 4 Ghostbusters - Women. Capt. Marvel - Woman, Spider-Man - Spider Gwen?!

OrionPax - 2/15/2016, 9:32 PM

Paul Reubans as Cable!

GrilledPopcorn - 2/15/2016, 9:32 PM

Heck no. She's an atrocious and one note actress.

MikeZ - 2/16/2016, 1:08 AM

@GrilledPopcorn - Who also had Golden Globe and Academy Award nods for her performance in The Imitation Game

GrilledPopcorn - 2/16/2016, 1:31 AM

@MikeZ - She didn't win any. Also she got nominated to pull in the young viewers. She's still terrible. But if you think she's a good actress then that's your opinion.

SpideySupes94 - 2/16/2016, 2:08 AM

@GrilledPopcorn - And if you think she's a bad actress, then that's your opinion as well. What's your point?

GrilledPopcorn - 2/16/2016, 4:17 AM

@StarkSupreme - I made it in my first post.

pistolgrip - 2/15/2016, 9:39 PM

Dolph lundgren as cable anyone?

WruceBayne - 2/15/2016, 11:06 PM

@pistolgrip - I agree with you 100%. He has the height, size and you can age him just a bit and BOOM! We have ourselves a Cable.

It was a jokes in the movie, you dweebs. Relax. No wonder it took forever for cbm's to start having fun again.

BlackStar25 - 2/15/2016, 9:41 PM

O yes. I'd love to see how many people would cry and whine about this. Gives Deadpool more material to work with.

WelcomeBackFrank - 2/15/2016, 9:42 PM

Nice manip but no. Give me Jon Hamm, Stephen Lang or Ron Perlman for the role.

DallasAvenger - 2/15/2016, 9:43 PM

How about Sullivan Stapleton. He seems he could play a straight man next to a Deadpool. Unaware of the joke. Just grey that hair up.

pistolgrip - 2/15/2016, 9:44 PM

Dolph lundgren

DallasAvenger - 2/15/2016, 9:49 PM

Or how about Damian Lewis? Does he have any interest in being in comic book movies. He seems perfectly suited for the role. We know he plays a guy who has seen some s*^t in his life very well.

Scorpo - 2/15/2016, 9:50 PM

Genderbending with marvel? Where have I seen this before...

Scorpo - 2/15/2016, 9:50 PM

Was there a supergirl episode tonight?

Supafairy - 2/15/2016, 10:04 PM

@Scorpo - I was wondering about that too. Doesn't look like it :(

Scorpo - 2/15/2016, 10:08 PM

@Supafairy - damn. That sucks.

DallasAvenger - 2/15/2016, 10:17 PM

@Scorpo - No the Grammys were on.

Scorpo - 2/15/2016, 10:25 PM

@DallasAvenger - omg [frick] that

MagicStingRay - 2/15/2016, 9:59 PM

Hey geniuses, it was a joke in the movie, some people...
