The Cable/Nathan Summers Thread

With Deadpool 3 happening I could see them bringing back Brolin as Cable for that at least, though he may be considered a variant.
It also depends on who they cast as Scott and Jean (and/or Madelyne I guess). If we get two white actors as Nathan's parents it could be that their kid happens to look like Josh. But if we get like some people have suggested a native american Scott and black Jean or whatever, Josh Brolin doesn't make much sense.

 

Once X-Men deal with Bishop and issues of time travel Cable can also be done with a Scott Jean focus, maybe linked in with Sinister.

 

Cable could be going around doing his own thing completely separately, maybe in Deadpool films. Don’t particularly want the others.

 

The other 2 are hopefully too low in priority to get the call ahead of all the high profile X-Men who haven’t yet had a good showing, or any showing at all.

 

Shows, mini-series and specials might help achieve it.

 

Yeah, specials are better for when a film and the budget and commitment involved aren’t appropriate.

 

depending on the age rang of Jean and Scott... could we see Nathan's "X-man" before seeing him as Cable

 

Well,

Josh Brolin is technically a "variant", since the two Deadpool movies represent an alternate universe, not the prime universe of the XCM (X-Men Cinematic Multiverse).
John Brolin's version is not even related to Scott and Jean.

I think that we need a new Cable, always played by Josh.

 

616 should be the main comic book Marvel universe, but they used that number on Dr. Strange 2. Such a stupid and confusing move.

 

Bad idea.
I would prefer the originally-intended name Earth-199999.

 

No making up. Simply, you're not informed, my friend.
