Deadpool Casting [Merged]

[Edd Extraordinaire]

ok, i dont really have an idea on who should play him, but maybe you guys do, so if you want to post it, go ahead.

It may have to be a comedic actor, as Deadpool is even more of a stand-up type than Spider-Man. Not Jim Carrey or anybody, but they have to be able to spout off one-liners and jokes.

bruce cambell as deadpool with a bruce willis cameo as cable. my 2 cents. peace out.

 

[mg_productions]

We already settled on somebody in a post already but I forgot about it till now.Sean William Scott was my first choice but I think we settled on Ryan Reynolds of Blade 3 fame.

As for villian,I think if they use T-Ray that Triple H would be the perfect choice to play him.Not because of his acting chops,which obviously wouldn't qualify him, but because I think if T-Ray actually exsisted,he would walk and talk just like Triple H does.

And Kurt Russel would make a better Cable than Bruce Willis IMO.

Ryan Reynolds has been the choice so far but my choice would have been Henry Rollins. He's a comedian, an actor, muscular, and jus plain badass. Every time I see the guy it's like he screams Deadpool. And when I read the comics it's his voice I hear as DP's(usually either him or Collin Quin).

And I'd like the main villain to be some big boss like Silvermane or something but as his right hand man I'd love to see Taskmaster. That's when the whole rivalry thing could be built up. Ray Park as Taskmaster with Metal Gear's David Hayter(Solid Snake) doing the voice.

indeed henry rollins! but colin quinn? no ****ing way.

 

[JediPunk]

I said it before I'll say it again. Bruce Campbell IS DEADPOOL. Problem is he probably would never play the part.

...Never said Collin Quin. ...I said that's the voice I usually imagine when I read the comic. I don't just imagine everyone sounding like Stan Lee or anything. lol

mmmmmmmmmm rollins *Drools like homer*...

i;m sorry what was the question??

 

[Razorbat]

You think Colin Quinn is funny? Weird. I've often referred to him as the least funny illiterate on television. Anyway, yeah the physique of the actor's not important. Weight training and martial arts courses can give him the body. The face is also a moot point, since he'll be under prosthetics and a mask at all times. Bruce Campbell could pull it off, though he's getting up in his years. I'm a big fan of Henry Rollins' comedy, but his style doesn't really mesh with Wade's. John Cusack? I dunno. Tougher casting than I'd have thought. I'd go with an unknown with a lot of talent and a genuinely funny writer doing his jokes.

 

[mg_productions]

I think John Cusack would be good for Daredevil.But no one ever listens to me.

 

[Elijya]

hmmm, rollins as poolman. that could work

 

[Omega Red]

Well the only 2 I can think of is Willis and Charlie Sheen , cause Campbell has put the idea of playing Deadpool away.

But one of those 2 could do it

 

[Pawe³ Max Henry]

Henry Rollins yes he is good choice.

 

[Omega Red]

Well seeing how they already have Wade all picked out. Lets see who else we can cast. I would like to see these choiced plus some of your own

Weasle

Typhoid Mary

T-Ray

Dr Killeabrew

 

[Big Dirty Ogre]

weasel- guy pearce

typhoid mary- linda cardellini

t-ray- i was going to say trevor goddard (kano in mortal kombat the movie), but he apparently died last year.

dr. killbrew- bob hoskins

 

[Omega Red]

Good choices

I don't think Reynolds has been confirmed (but it sounds like a done deal) and I know a lot of people really like the idea of Ryan playing DP... And granted, I don't know a lot about the character (only what I've read in Cable/Deadpool and from the Marvel Directory)... so Reynolds, I can go for that... But what about Henry Rollins?

I personally think Henry Rollins would make a kick-ass Eddie Brock. He's got the build, the voice, and he reportedly loves the character.

I'd rather see Seann William Scott as Deadpool. Ryan Reynolds has that "slick" funny. He's smooth so when he goofs up it's funny. He's not manic enough to be Deadpool. Seann William Scott will make a fool of himself, and that's DP all the way to me.

Yeah, I can see him as Eddie actually...

yeah, i was talking about sean william scott playing him months ago.

 

[Philtheeg]

If they go the LL&L route I figure Jeri Ryan would be a shoe-in for Zoe Culloden...

Probably wouldn't do it but Rick Moranis for Weasel.

 

[Big Dirty Ogre]

i doubt rick moranis is in a position to turn down a paying job.

 

[Nightwing: Endgame]

lol yea i gotta agree w/ ya there
