What's up guys? Everyone's favorite foul-mouthed mercenary here!
I've decided to take a look at what I'd love to see, cast-wise, in an X-Force movie. I've got a little list of main characters and villains for you to check out, so let's get rollin'.
Of course, to begin, we start with ME, the Merc with a Mouth! Now, Ryan Reynolds is still the popular choice to play me in any upcoming film, and that's still a damn good idea! But I'd like to go off the beaten path for this cast...
Deadpool - Ben Foster
You’re all thinking, right now, “Ben Foster? The guy that played Angel in X3?” Yeah, that’s him. If you have your doubts about Foster playing a homicidal maniac, go watch Alpha Dog(surprisingly good movie). He does have a small amount of comedic experience, and I believe he could pull off DEADPOOL’s antics pretty damn well.
Now, for the Leader of our little homicidal support group, CABLE! I love this guy. If you wanna see fun, watch me mess with him in my amazing (shameless plug) DEADPOOL game, out now on all major systems! Isn't the title creative? I thought it up, it just screams...ME...
My bad, got a little off topic, sorry...don't leave me!
Cable - Dominic Purcell
Dominic Purcell is what you would call a ‘journeyman’ actor. He’s done a lot of movies, and most have had little fanfare. He was a great part of the fantastic Prison Break tv show, though. And, in my humble opinion, he was impressive in Blade: Trinity as Drake. He’s got the right look, he’s a big guy, and has a great voice that would suit Cable perfectly. And don’t give me that Stephen Lang crap, he’s way too old to play Cable.
Up next, we come to the first of our 2 sexy lady members. The deadly, DOMINO. She’s a mercenary, she was bred for it, and she got ass. Who could it be?
Domino – Gemma Arterton
Whew! She’s got enough ass to play Domino, don’t ya think? She was a Bond Girl(Strawberry Fields – worst Bond Girl name ever), she was a witch hunter, an immortal, and a princess. I love this girl. Her acting skills may leave something to be desired, but she definitely has the right look to nail me---I mean, the part.
Look, this next guy, I don’t know his deal… He’s some sort of mutant/Sentinel hybrid, he has a goofy as hell ceramic mask, and he’s technically British, but acts French. (Schizo much?) But, he’s pretty badass, and kinda scares me.
Fantomex – Luke Goss
Ah, Luke Goss, the king of makeup. This guy can do it all. He was the incredible Nomak in the best CBM of all-time, Blade II, he was brilliant as Prince Nuada in the criminally underrated Hellboy II:The Golden Army. He can disappear into any character, and has a knack for accents. My man Luke, would be perfect for Fantomex.
Finally, to round out our happy-go-lucky roster of killers, we come to Psylocke. She’s a former charter pilot, her brother is a walking English flag, and her older brother? His issues have issues. But who can play this raven-haired goddess? Eeny, meeny, miny, moe…
Psylocke – Olivia Wilde

… … …
Sorry, I swear, I wasn’t fapping to that pic…honest. Olivia Wilde, what can I say? She’s a fantastic actress, she’s gorgeous, and she definitely looks the part. Do we really need anymore than that?
Well, that’s our team. What you think? That’s what I thought, I love you guys too. How about we take a look at a couple of villain options?
Apocalypse
Chances are we won’t get to face-off against this big bastard, but wouldn’t it be cool? My fantasy is to have Michael Clarke Duncan play Apocalypse, but alas, R.I.P. Mr. Duncan.
Black Tom Cassidy and Juggernaut – Tom Hardy and Hafthor Bjornsson(Anglocised)
Black Tom Cassidy, that son of a bitch stole my hand! And then he turned into some sort of plant? Our Marvel writers, crazy I tells ya! Juggernaut, well, we all know him (no, not Vinnie Jones! UGH). They’d be a pretty good team to take on, eh?
Mister Sinister – Luke Evans
Mister Sinister, this guy’s whacked. He’s smarter than Beast, he’s got a seriously messed up cape, he can shapeshift, and he has a borderline obsessive hard-on for Cyclops and his family. He’s messed with everyone at least once, and it’d be a great challenge to take him out.
Well, folks, that’s all for me. I hope you enjoyed my little casting call. If you didn’t, have a chimichanga and a smile. Merc out!
