Hey everybody, if you’re not a fan of Deadpool, then kill yourself. If you ARE you came to the right place… The right place to crack your jokes of how horrible my casting is in this fan cast of the upcoming AWESOME Deadpool movie, if it ever goes into production.
Lets start.

Wade Wilson aka Deadpool played by Ryan Reynolds
Photobucket

You know, Ryan is a really underappreciated actor, well ever since that Green Lantern movie came out. Actually ever since the past TWO CBM’s he’s been in were horrible adaptations. Ryan is an amazing actor, if you saw Buried you know what I’m talking about, 95 min of just Ryan and STILL watchable. He IS Wade Wilson and that is final.

Notable Works: Buried, The Nines, Blade Trinity
Others I Considered: Sean William Scott, Ryan Kwanten

Blind Al played by Betty White
Photobucket

Just as Ryan is Wade, Betty is Blind Al. Ryan and Betty worked together on The Proposal and she is quite the hilarious old lady. I can really see Betty being Blind Al, going back and forth with Deadpool.

Notable Works: The Proposal, Hot in Cleveland, That one Snickers Commercial
Others I Considered: Helen Mirren, Lin Shaye

Weasel played by Leigh Whannell
Photobucket

This is a very original choice, since he really isn’t a well-known actor. He caught my eye when I saw Insidious, he was part of the comic relief in that movie. You probably have seen him act though, he was in the first Saw playing Adam, also writing the story for the Saw franchise as well. He looks the part of Weasel and can also be funny yet serious at times.

Notable Works: Insidious, Saw, Legend of the Guardians
Others I Considered: Justin Long, Jay Baruchel

Vanessa Carlysle played by Alice Eve
Photobucket

My first choice was Ali Larter, but I went with this fine piece of… Actress. In seriousness, Alice Eve is a sexy up and comer, doing a phenominal job wooing the audience in She’s Out of My League. Since Vanessa is, at the moment, only Vanessa and not Copycat, Alice just has to play the sexy lady she already is.

Notable Works: She’s Out of My League, Sex and the City 2, Crossing Over
Others I Considered: Ali Larter, Jena Malone

Francis aka Ajax played by Michael C Hall
Photobucket

I’m sure you all would agree with me on that Hall would do an amazing job at playing this psychotic character out for revenge. He plays a serial killer in Dexter so just take some of that tactic and put it into torture. Hall is an amazing actor and I think would do this role so much justice.

Notable Work: Dexter, Gamer, East Fifth Bliss
Others I Considered: Andy Whitfield, Christian Bale, Sam Worthington

Garrison Kane played by Eli Roth
Photobucket

For Garrison Kane you need someone quite big in stature and hella intimidating, so I came up with Eli Roth. For you all that don’t know or haven’t seen him in action, he is one scary ‘Basterd’. Playing the Bear Jew in Inglourious Basterds, he and his baseball bat were quite a duo. He would be a match for the ‘Pool while looking the part.

Notable Work: Inglourious Basterds, Grindhouse, Death Proof
Others I Considered: Jon Hamm, Ray Stevenson

Wyre played by Nick Tarabay
Photobucket

When I read the name Wyre, I think of a weasel, like someone who manipulates and is one sneaky bastard. In the Starz! Network’s Spartacus, Nick plays exactly the character I described. He is underrated and quite the actor, while looking like Wyre all the same.

Notable Work: Spartacus: Blood and Sand, Spartacus: Gods of the Arena
Others I Considered: Jay Hernandez

Sluggo played by Tanoai Reed
Photobucket

Tanoai is mainly a stuntman, being Dwayne Johnson’s stunt double. Since Sluggo has hardly any lines, but gets into some hefty fight sequences, I believe Tanoai would do great in the role. Standing at 6’4 with some lifts could look the 7’4 Sluggo is supposed to, towering over everyone else.

Notable Works: Priest, Iron Man 2, Batman Legends
Others I Considered: Dave Bautista, Matthew Willig

Dr. Killebrew played by Hugh Laurie
Photobucket

Who better to play an evil doctor than Mr. House himself? Hugh would pull this role off very well, already playing a psychotic doctor in House M.D., just make it a little more evil and we got ourselves Killebrew!

Notable Works: House M.D., Monsters vs Aliens, Street Kings
Others I Considered: Christopher Lloyd, Bill Nighy

Patch played by Jackie Earle Haley
Photobucket

JEH isn’t a newcomer to CBM’s playing a magnificent Rorschach in Watchmen. Visually he definitely fits the role, short, bald, the works. He definitely has the acting chops, even in this small role. I want to see JEH bring his performance from Human Target as Guerrero to here, except as a badass.

Notable Works: Watchmen, Human Target, Shutter Island
Others I Considered: None

Piotr Rasputen aka Colossus played by Owain Yeoman
Photobucket

Owain isn’t Russian, I know, but he is tall and can bulk up to look very big. I don’t think Colossus ever is in normal form in the movie, so all Owain has to do is look very big and pull off a Russian accent, which I'm sure he would be able to do.

Notable Work: The Mentalist, Generation Kill, Troy
Others I Considered: Armie Hammer, Alexander Nevsky

That’s my cast!
I hoped you all liked it, and please, input you're positive/negative comments below.

@l0rdleg0pas - honestly, if you go to XMen origins: wolverine and watch Ryan as wade Wilson, NOT DEADPOOL, he pulls him off perfectly. GL was all script problems.

@hailtothekingbaby- my original choice wouldve been Ryan kwanton, I thnk that's an original, no? And Bruce would've been an amazing 'Pool back in the day.

wow I can't beleive that its never occured to me before but Kwanton as Deadpool would be awesome, Reynolds is great and all but with him involved its going to take forever for the movie to be made. I don't blame Reynolds he is a good actor Buried is proof, but I guess in GL they were asking him to play Van Wilder not his fault. Anyways nice cast

GREAT cast! I actually agree with all of them! I was starting to think I was the only person who liked Ryan as DP! DP has a tendency to ramble, & Ryan Reynolds is the ultimate rambler.
