Deadpool Deadpool News and Discussion

[Nathan]

Would be great to have a scene where he gets hit on by multiple women, only to reveal it was Copycat all along. I liked that bit in the comic, where she messed with him. Or when she ruined his relationship with Syrin.

 

[def28]

Yeah, if they build it up like that and mess with the audience I think it would be cool. Might just have to change her color.

 

[marvelrobbins]

About time Morena was cast in comic book film.

My knowledge of deadpool come from his appearances in New Mutants/X-force and wolverine so does he ever any love intrests besides Copycat and Siryn.

Copycat was firs thought after just seeing it on twitter.

 

[Nathan]

I don't know, we've had several blue mutants. And Guardians of the Galaxy had tons of blue colored aliens, and that didn't seem to bother people. I think as long as she looks distinctively different, the blue color shouldn't be an issue. Don't give her scales, keep the hair long and natural, and don't forget the pointy years.

 

[Sullstar]

I don't think blue would be an issue if Copycat wasn't so similar to Mystique (well to the GA)

I'd say it's definitely gonna be Vanessa.

She goes back to him pre Deadpool and is his most important love interest.

Others are Outlaw, Death, Mercedes and Shiklah. Siryn and Vanessa are his main early ones. Morena would be a good Death but I don't think they are going that route.

It's more she's a blue shapeshifeter. I don't think the color alone is an issue.

Good point though. The hair, eyes, ears, scales etc is different enough.

Boo to no Cudmore, big yay to Baccarin.

 

[BlackFox]

Excellent news on Baccarin, would have preferred her as Domino but if they make Carlysle a good character then no biggy.

This film is gaining momentum nicely.

True, the fact that she is blue and a shapeshifter as well is the biggest issue.

Adjusting the color could also help. I still want her blue, but maybe they could make her a bit paler. Mystique has a really strong, dark blue. Vanessa's blue could be a lot lighter. Maybe even almost white with a tint of blue. I could accept that. Kinda like Chiana on Farscape.

 

[marvelrobbins]

Well Vanessa had different kind of Blue look than Mystique.

She would be only blue character in Deadpool so it wouldn't be much an issue.

Great comparison. If they did a tone like Chiana's that would look pretty awesome and stand out different. You sold me

 

[Dark Raven]

Well this just got interesting with Morena Baccarin joining the cast as the female lead. I think she's hot, especially as she looks on Gotham at the moment.

But I wanted her to play a superheroine or a different character. I really wish she had been Maria Hill in the Avengers instead of Cobie Smulders. She would've been so much more interesting and striking.

 

[JJmelo]

I don't really like Baccarin as an actress. Yea she is pretty, I've just never found her to be all that more than that. Her stint on Gotham has impressed me only because Barbara was soooo terrible. Hopefully she can pull this off. I would have much preferred Taylor Schilling in the role. Oh well, i'm still totally down for this!

Here are my full thoughts on the casting:

Morena, now I'm interested in this movie.

You didn't think she was good on Homeland or Firefly

 

[Sithborg]

Morena Baccarin is the female lead.

Casting news is just coming out now. Good to hear. I look forward to seeing her in the role.

 

[Superhero 101]

Glad Morena is joining Deadpool! She is hot on Gotham.

Nice!

According to IMDb 'Deadpool' has got on board...

KEN SENG ('Project X') - cinematography
SEAN HAWORTH ('Ender's Game') - production design
CHRISTINE BIESELIN CLARKE ('Ender's Game) - costume design

...which would be awesome, if true.

 

[Dark Raven]

Glad Morena is joining Deadpool! She is hot on Gotham.

She is hot everywhere. I like her a lot more with longer hair than when she had it short and closely cropped.

 

[Gusto]

Would Deadpool be aware of the new timeline?

Going back to the leaked script, they can change it in that he makes fun of Origins that way/by pointing out the OT.

They better focus on more important stuff than such gimmicks. The script took a nice, subtle jab at 'Origins.'

 

[marvelrobbins]

Morena was nominated for emmy on Homeland.She Is great on Gotham.Her on it shows how bad erin Richards is.

I still can't believe CObie Smolders beat her for Maria Hill.To be frank I always viewed Morena as better actress.She even played villain fairly well on Stargate and V.

 

[-JKR-]

What's so bad about Cobie Smulders as Maria Hill. I really liked her in the role, especialy in 'Cap 2.'

 

[Nathan]

I simply think she wasn't right for her. She really doesn't have attitude and acting chops to be the Maria Hill we love to hate. That's how I feel at least.
