This could be good news for some, or it could be the worst.
But it’s official according to Yahoo! Movies.
After (the dreadful) X-Men Origins: Wolverine, 20th Century Fox has announced that Ryan Reynolds will reprise his role in his own spinoff movie.
The 32-year-old Canadian actor will again star as Wade Wilson a.k.a. Deadpool, nicknamed the "Merc with a Mouth", who is a high-tech mercenary known for his wisecracks, black comedy, satirical pop-culture references and willingness to break the fourth wall.
Fox also announced that the sequel to X-Men Origins: Wolverine are already in works. The sequel, which marks the fifth time Hugh Jackman playing the animalistic mutant Wolverine, will focus on the X-Men comic's samurai storyline; the Japanese locale setup for which is teased after the blockbuster film's end credits.
Aside from that, Ian McKellen will also reprise his role as the main villain in the X-Men universe, Magneto, in his own spinoff movie X-Men Origins: Magneto.
And that's not all. Also in work right now is X-Men: First Class, intended to be about the young Cyclops, Jean, Beast and others who attended Xavier's school with them, written by The O.C. creator Josh Schwartz.
In my humble opinion, Fox really need to slow it a bit.

Hmm... interesting.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure how I feel about that... I kinda liked X-Men, but they really do need to leave it now, it's all a bit much if you ask me!
