Will We See Cable In The Deadpool Spinoff?

When asked if Cable will appear in the yet untitled Deadpool movie Reynolds replies: "We'll see. That is all being discussed, "I'm hoping Cable will be in it. Look, I've made no secret that I love that character."

Reynolds was more positive, however, about two other X-Men characters showing there ugly mugs: villains Ajax and Black Tom Cassidy. "I also love some of the more preliminary characters at the beginning of the series. I like Ajax — that's an easier character to put in. And Black Tom," he states. "I think there's a lot of different villains (we are considering); you could do a whole bunch of villains in (the first solo Deadpool film), or you could just have Deadpool going up against one guy. We'll see."

It's great that to see an actor so passionate for his character. Doesn't happen often anymore.

Hope CABLES in his own movie personally! CABLES more would fit into X4!!!

Cable would be nice... Hard to explain (the general public doesn't like the cloning explanation, so Maddy Pryor might not do), but nice.

BTW, LEEE, did I tell you I live about 15 minutes away from where your avatar was created? Right here in Brockton, Massachusetts; Home of The Tick.

Cable would be awesome, how about Slayback or some Juggernaut action :P

BaronBubba - 6/3/2009, 1:45 PM
@Kockie - Well seeing how Black Tom Cassidy is Irish, and the X3 JuggerNOT was clearly British, I'd think it would be doable.

Very cool @ BaronBubba @ ; )

Hey your Avatar's just reminded me about the MOON KNIGHT tv series which MARVEL still hasn't sorted out!!! Whats it been three years???? Geez MARVEL get ya A$$E$ out, i mean fingers out! : D
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 6/3/2009, 1:56 PM
Oh yeah, like DarkAvengers said, i reckon BULLEYE would be perfect in DEADPOOL!!! Now that would be a movie!!! Also both owned by FOX!!! Colin come ere!

@LEEE, yep like 3 years... ARGH! I hate that, lol.

@Grif, Yep, your right. Sad, but very true. Fox could cast Michael Phelps as Wade and have "Deadpool" actually be a swimming movie, for all they care.

I am going to pretend that DeadPool didnt suck in that last movie and say... it would be sooo cool to see a Deadpool Cable movie! I also wish there was an ongoing Predator vs. Aliens Anime that featured Space Marines and went on and on like Bleach does! Gosh i feel like i would kill to see that. Oh and Ryan Reynolds used to be one of my Favorite actors until i saw him in Wolverine : Snorigins. I dont believe actors any more when they say they love the character and want to bring them to life, since that movie.

Its all about $ to the BIG WIGS. They do provide the $ies for it though, I will give it that much.

X-Man is my favorite character, But Cable is the next best thing but difficult to pull off. I would pick Malcolm McDowell if he was younger to play CABLE.

grif: I disagree, just on the basis that they've allowed him to run around Hollywood for months, obviously self-promoting his role in the upcoming film. Normally, with a Fox property, I would do anything BUT disagree with you on this. lol
Besides, if your likeness were to be placed into a comic property's continuity/mythology, you would be amped to want to play that character too! So, given that, I'm more inclined to beleive his enthusiasm for the role.

I hope they start smart, and introduce Tolliver ("Genesis") as the main antagonist, Dr. Killebrew as the Hospice Director, Ajax as the muscle, Copycat as the love interest (this kind of comedic/action story ACTUALLY suits a love interest, given its heavy comedic undertones), and a $#it load of cameo's!
(*When Deadpool goes to the "Hospice" you could easily throw in characters like: Kane, Reaper, Wild Child, Mastadon, Mesmero, Sauron, Slayback, Sluggo, Washout, etc.)

@Kratos6

Can't fanboys just be happy for once that someone is FINALLY taking a character as seriously as we want them to? That statement didn't even make sense, he's working on two movies slated to come out before Deadpool. I wouldn't be surprised if that number doubles by next year, since he's such a talented and versatile actor.

Ryan Reynolds could be the next Hugh Jackman, in a comic book movie aspect! Let's hope for that!

adamant877 - 6/3/2009, 2:25 PM
Oh, yeah... And I hope they DON"T showcase Cable in the (first) Deadpool movie! He would completely overshadow the title character, and would be better suited to a starring vehicle of his own, or a "Cable/Deadpool" movie (a la: "AVP" style).
Just my opinion.

I so wish they would make one more X-men movie and use Apocalypse for the villian.

BaronBubba--You lucky, man. Living near The Ticks birth.

Why do they movie makers always think that if they introduce a character his entire history has to be told. JUst put cable in there, give us a tidbit of backstory, and then continue with the rest of the film. You dont have to explain why he prefers coke over pepsi. Leave the chunk of his "origin" for sequels or his own film.

That's what they do in comics anyway. Enter: Cable, the foeiest foe that ever foed! Then when they can think of some motivation and history, they enlighten us with some more issues and we think they're geniuses. That is a formula hollywood SHOULD be familiar with, tv is. (LOST)

Cable is one of my favorite marvels.. He's good enough to have his own movie, if they want movie-mergers then that's a good idea for Cable to have a part in Deadpool.

realfirstavenger - 6/3/2009, 8:52 PM
if they put reynolds with the mask on, the movie could be decent
if they dont, its not really a deadpool movie, its a reynolds fighting with swords movie
either way it is not going to be great but it could at least be good for a laugh
SpiderBat209
SpiderBat209 - 6/3/2009, 9:16 PM
It's too soon for CABLE. Do X4 and show Cyclops's kid being sent to the future...Wait. Cyclops is DEAD!

MARVEL didn't think that plot line through, did they? Morons. :P

Pit DEADPOOL against X-FORCE (sans CABLE.) :)
iNsaneMilesy
iNsaneMilesy - 6/3/2009, 10:46 PM
I'd say no.
Cable needs to be introduced through the Xmen first.
The focus is on Deadpool after all.

SlurpeeGuy - 6/3/2009, 10:48 PM
Cable would overshadow Deadpool and take up too much screen time for a first movie so of course Fox will have him in it. The same way everyone only talked about Deadpool before Wolverine came out and the way everyone I know wanted to go see Silver Surfer (no one called it FF2).

darthstern - 6/3/2009, 10:58 PM
