Deadpool 2 is a hot commodity now, and two of the latest tidbits are that Cable and Domino have both been confirmed for the film. Although the sequel will not have director Tim Miller on-board, but Reynolds promises that it will be better than the first. In an interview with LRM, while Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick were promoting their new film Life, they took a moment to talk about Deadpool 2. More specifically about who will join Deadpool this time around:
Yeah, Cable and Domino grabbed the headlines on Deadpool. But there are definitely some more obscure characters that people know or that real diehards know that will be in there just by virtue of we need a new villain, and we need some new good guys to compliment (Deadpool), but it is growing. Of course, it will be all about the lunacy that is Deadpool himself.
Rhett Reese gave a separate interview with Cinema Blend and he confirms that the X-Force film is not going to be Deadpool 3, but a separate film altogether:
Yeah, Deadpool 3 will be different from X-Force. So I think we’ll be able to take two paths. One is where we’re launching something bigger, but then another where we’re contracting and staying personal and small. So I think best of all worlds, really.
Reese took a moment to talk about the new director for Deadpool 2 David Leitch with IGN:
It’s been phenomenal, David has his own, you know, point of view that’s different from Tim’s. He comes into a situation obviously where there already exists a tone and a style, so he’s going to stay pretty close to that, I think. But at the same time, he brings a new approach and it’s enlivened us definitely to try new things and to do things a little bit different from the first Deadpool. Not drastically, but enough that you get the sense that it’s coming from a slightly different team.
We love Tim Miller to death, we also love Dave now. I think you’ll be very satisfied with what we’re cooking up. We are loving our script right now, and the direction that it’s headed. So I think audiences hopefully will be pleased.
Deadpool 2 is shooting for a 2018 release date.
