More From Jeff Wadlow On X-FORCE; "I’m A Huge Deadpool Fan"
Describing how he perceives the differences between the X-Men and X-Force, Kick-Ass 2 writer and director Jeff Wadlow also reveals some his favourite characters, including Deadpool and Cable.
In an interview with Screen Rant, Jeff Wadlow was asked to share his thoughts on what exactly it is that differentiates the X-Force team from the X-Men. "What ‘X-Force’ is – the way I talk about ‘X-Force’ is… ‘X-Men’ is about mutants, and not all the mutants get into the mansion. So I’m curious to tell a story about the mutants who don’t make it into the mansion." So, this potentially gives us an idea of how the movie will differ to the majority of X-Force comic books. Will we see a team comprising of mutants who for whatever reason wouldn't be a welcome addition to Xavier's School For Gifted Youngsters rather than members of the X-Men banding together to take extreme measures against deadly threats? Either way, it sounds like Wadlow - who has already confirmed a five member team - has an idea of who he wants to include in the movie! "Look, I’m a huge Deadpool fan, who doesn’t love Wolverine – but obviously Cable is an iconic character we haven’t seen onscreen yet. I love Psylocke, Domino is an amazing character – it’s a long list of characters that have appeared in ‘X-Force’ – Colossus is in the current lineup… There’s a lot of really exciting characters that you can use in ‘X-Force’ that have been in other movies, that haven’t shown up, or maybe there’s ways to re-imagine them, even though they might’ve shown up in other films." Who do you guys think they should use?
