Deadpool Will Break The Fourth Wall And Wear The Costume, Says Rob Liefeld
By Russ Fischer/Sept. 23, 2009 10:45 am EST
Here’s what Liefeld had to say last night and today via Twitter:
Deadpool movie checklist- DP in costume-check! Breaking 4th wall-check! Loads of killing-double check!
Great Deadpool movie meeting! Lauren Schuler Donner and her team are headed in the right direction!
Also excited to discuss possibilities of Cable in future X-films!!!
Donner Company is on top of making the Deadpool movie that fans want. They get it. He’s funny, tortured, clever, a bastard and mucho action!
That third note apparently caused some confusion, as Liefeld clarified today that Cable will not be in Deadpool, nor X-men First Class, but possibly in future X-men movies that follow from The Last Stand.
Regardless, there is no script at this stage, so take all of Lefield’s statements as indicators of where the movie is likely to go. Until there is a draft in hand, that’s all we really know. But for everyone who was irritated by the character as portrayed in Wolverine, that might be enough.
