Is This Our First Look At 'Colossus' On The DEADPOOL Set?

Though we still don't know who'll be playing him, it's been confirmed that the character of Colossus will feature in the currently shooting Deadpool movie. Does this new set image provide out first look at the actor in a mo-cap suit? Click on to take a look and see what you think...

We've seen plenty of set snaps of Ryan Reynolds as the Merc With A mouth along with his motley crew of supporting characters, but this might just be our first glimpse of X-Men's Colossus. Obviously it's too fuzzy to make out any details, but according to Twitter user Lawrence Sarabia at least, the fella in the mocap suit will indeed be playing the metal mutant in Tim Miller's Deadpool. Of course even if we had a closer pic of the guy, there'll probably be a different actor playing Piotr Rasputin in his human form anyway, but we'll update if any more images come our way.

Deadpool stars Ryan Reynolds, Morena Baccarin, T.J. Miller, Gina Carano, Brianna Hildebrand, and Ed Skrein and will hit theaters on February 12, 2016 with a nice, juicy R rating.

It could very well be colossus but a large dude in a mo cap suit is a bit of a stretch

Nice, it sounds like their definitely sticking close to that leaked script....

I really wish I didn't read the leaked script a few years ago. Seems like they're sticking with a lot of the main parts of it.

That's one fat Colossus.

Daniel Cudmore as Colossus? He should be done with Warcraft by now.

@ThePowerCosmic I think it's part of the new timeline but with an expansion. Some character being introduce but some re-casted.

I think it's another Colossus.

@ThePowerCosmic

I think it's the new altered timeline. No X-Men Origins happened so no Weapon XI. Which is why Deadpool never went through the procedure and remains the merc with the mouth we all know and love.

Kr08 - 4/12/2015, 6:31 AM
@HOTSHOT The Weapon XI program did happen, if Deadpool heals then it did happen. My guess is that we see Mystique become Stryker in DoFP that the way everything happened changed but it still happened. Simply with better results than that barakapool thing we got the first time

If that is Colossus, that is truly one fat Piotr

How did so many people miss that Colossus was going to be in this movie and not with Daniel Cudmore?

It's a stretch saying this one big guy in a mocap suit is Colossus, but yeah, it could be.

And for those who don't remember, Cudmore announced months ago that his time as Colossus was over.

Dear god. Who cares about the timeline.

Marvel has everything connected. Everyone else has the freedom to connect only what they want, when they want it.
If it ties in, they'll let you know.

I didn't really think of this in the X-men timeline when I read the script. It's not that it couldn't fit, but it almost seems on its own from the script (thank God). I mean Wade takes a jab at Origins version of himself. I suppose it could be but I read the script before DoFP, so I maybe. Either way, I stoked they're still going with what appears to be the original script. It really captured the feel of a Deadpool comic.

This is actually making me a bit hopeful for the film for some reason. I haven't the slightest idea why this is the thing, just glad to see collosus again I guess.

I don't like the idea of colossus being in this movie with a different actor. Makes it feel like this movie somewhat seperate from xmen even tho it's in the same universe. Just like when edward Norton got recast, now it feels like the Incredible Hulk doesn't even exist in the same mcu anymore

Finally! I was worried they rewrote it. Nope, he's there. He also should appear in the massive Matrix hallway style massacre.

A lot of people read the screenplay, I see. But, if they are using a different actor for the motion capture of Colossus, I don't see the point of it. They should just use the same actor because the only thing that's really changing is his skin and hair maybe, not his size or anything else; it's not like he's the Hulk.

I guess they're doing it for stunt work.

Colossus is my favourite X-man, but the guy in the suit seems a little rotund to be based as CGI for colossus, does he not?

Could be Peter. I get more of a sluggo feeling from him though, even though I can't remember if he was in the bridge scene.

No it has not been confirmed.

If this is Colossus, then freaking COOL!

Could it be Cable? He's a pretty big dude, too.

But those who are saying this dude is fat, no way. He's just a huge, powerfully-built dude.

Could be anyone besides Professor X, ha!
