GOYER CONFIRMS DEADPOOL MOVIE
In a recent interview attended by IGN FilmForce, filmmaker David Goyer has confirmed plans to bring Marvel’s Merc-With-A-Mouth, Deadpool, to the big screen, with Blade: Trinity star Ryan Reynolds tapped to play the title role.
“I want to do something else with Ryan Reynolds because I really loved working with him and New Line wants to do something else with Ryan Reynolds and Marvel wants to do something with Ryan because there aren’t a lot of actors anymore that can do credible action and be funny and that are also good actors,” Goyer told reporters.
“So, Deadpool came up as a possibility. We would completely reinvent it. We can’t connect it to Weapon X or anything like that. We’ll see.” Reynolds and Goyer are reportedly still in negotiations for Deadpool. Goyer also revealed plans to work with writer Mark Millar, who recently denied involvement with a Deadpool movie.
