RUMOR: Is Peter Outerbridge in Deadpool?

RUMOR: Is Peter Outerbridge in Deadpool?

He just may be. The always unreliable IMDb has him cast in the role of the villain, Ajax.

Usually I wouldn't bother posting anything from IMDb, but ever since they got the scoop on J.J. Field as Union Jack, I've kept a keen eye on anything that is posted on the site.

The latest rumor to come out of the site comes from the page for the upcoming "Deadpool" solo venture. Peter Outerbridge(Saw VI, Happy Town, ReGenesis) has been added to the cast as playing Ajax, the central villain of the Deadpool script.



Now this casting, if true, is fantastic in my opinion. Outerbridge has the comedic timing, dry sarcasm, and sadistic charm that is ever-present in the incarnation of the character from the script penned by Zombieland scribes Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick.

Regardless of whether or not this rumor is true, it's nice to hear some stir on the flick.

Deadpool also might be starring Ryan Reynolds, and could possibly be directed by Adam Berg, and it is suggested to be aiming for a 2012 release.

Do you like Outerbridge for Ajax?
Do you hate the idea?
Are you tired of all the uncertainty on this film?

@LEE Well since Reynolds is producing, I don't think he'll let them mess it up too badly.

@Rock The only reason I give this rumor a chance, is because it's out of left field.

Just like J.J. Field was. I just think it's unlikely that someone would submit a low level actor like Outerbridge without some kind of reason.

Now, if IMDb had, let's say, Karl Urban listed. I'd immediately call bull$hit.

@deadpool
Dude. Reynold's production company,Dark Trick Films, is making the movie, Fox is distributing. Meaning Reynolds has more money invested in the movie than Fox.

Meaning Reynolds has more control over the movie than Fox does.

I saw this on old unreliable IMDb too and was unsure at first, but I think he could pull it off well and I would look forward to see what he does with the role.

It’s nice to see little bits keep popping up every now and then regarding news about the film, but I want more concrete information that this is going ahead dammit!!!
And if they are going for 2012 we could be waiting a while for old RR’s schedule to free up :(

@manymade I was hoping for T-Ray too. Maybe for sequel? They could include him with whom they mentioned at the end of the script...

@Harry and plus if it's rated R, FOX can't touch it. They won't have to cut things out for younger viewers because Deadpool is NOT a kids character, which is why the X-Men movies weren't the greatest, because FOX went overboard with making the movie appropriate for a PG-13 rating. There'd be so much freedom with an R rating.
