Deadpool 2 gaat superheldenfilms bekritiseren
Producent Simon Kinberg heeft een kleine update gegeven over Deadpool 2, het aankomende vervolg op de succesvolle R-rated superheldenfilm van regisseur Tim Miller. Kinberg gaf aan dat de film op de huidige trends in het genre ingaat:
“I think Deadpool 2 will comment on anything that’s happening in movies today especially in superhero movies, The sort of glut or saturation of these movies and the proliferation of sequels is definitely something we’ll play around with.”
Aldus de producent. Alhoewel dit zelfde al gebeurde in de originele film met Ryan Reynolds.
Een van de nieuwe personages is superheld Cable. Het is alleen nog niet bekend wie de rol zal vertolken, al gaan er wel geruchten. Kinberg vertelt:
“I’ve seen rumors from about everybody from Arnold Schwarzenegger to I can’t even remember, We haven’t cast him is the truth.”
Naast Deadpool 2 doet Kinberg ook uitspraken over X-men spin-off Gambit, een film waarin Channing Tatum de hoofdrol speelt:
“I think the truth is when you have these movies that need a very special and unique tone, it takes a little while to find that tone, Deadpool feels like it exploded out of nowhere but it was a ten-year development process on that movie. I think it was honed over those ten years. I hope that Gambit doesn’t take ten years but it takes a little honing to get that tone and that voice exactly right. The character has such a specific voice in the comic in the same way that Deadpool has a specific voice in the comic, that we want to make sure that we capture that voice on the page. Really it’s just about getting a screenplay that is worthy of that character and I think we’re really close right now.”
De opnames zullen begin 2017 starten en Deadpool 2 zal waarschijnlijk in het begin van 2018 naar de bioscoop komen.
