More From Jeff Wadlow On X-FORCE; "I’m A Huge Deadpool Fan"

Describing how he perceives the differences between the X-Men and X-Force, Kick-Ass 2 writer and director Jeff Wadlow also reveals some his favourite characters, including Deadpool and Cable.

In an interview with Screen Rant, Jeff Wadlow was asked to share his thoughts on what exactly it is that differentiates the X-Force team from the X-Men. "What ‘X-Force’ is – the way I talk about ‘X-Force’ is… ‘X-Men’ is about mutants, and not all the mutants get into the mansion. So I’m curious to tell a story about the mutants who don’t make it into the mansion." So, this potentially gives us an idea of how the movie will differ to the majority of X-Force comic books. Will we see a team comprising of mutants who for whatever reason wouldn't be a welcome addition to Xavier's School For Gifted Youngsters rather than members of the X-Men banding together to take extreme measures against deadly threats? Either way, it sounds like Wadlow - who has already confirmed a five member team - has an idea of who he wants to include in the movie! "Look, I’m a huge Deadpool fan, who doesn’t love Wolverine – but obviously Cable is an iconic character we haven’t seen onscreen yet. I love Psylocke, Domino is an amazing character – it’s a long list of characters that have appeared in ‘X-Force’ – Colossus is in the current lineup… There’s a lot of really exciting characters that you can use in ‘X-Force’ that have been in other movies, that haven’t shown up, or maybe there’s ways to re-imagine them, even though they might’ve shown up in other films." Who do you guys think they should use?

X-Force could be great.

Cyclops should be in this.

SMH, I don't really care if a CBM deviates from the source material. If the director can craft an awesome story while only loosely basing the movie off of the source material, I'd take that over a bad story that stays true to the source material.

Sounds like it could be good ill just wait for more news on it

Anyways, use Rick Remender's X-Force line up, and the base the movie off of one his story arcs. Maybe The Apocalypse Solution.

"Look, I’m a huge Deadpool fan, who doesn’t love Wolverine – but obviously Cable is an iconic character we haven’t seen onscreen yet."

I love this guy already.

That said, I'm going to try hard not to have any expectations for the line up or chances are I'll likely end up pretty disappointed.

Ah Deadpool...the Jar Jar Binks of the Marvel Universe.

I'll still see it of course. It is, after all, still a CBM. :)
And Im excited to see how this X-Men Cinematic Universe FOX is now envisioning plays out. Wolverine wasnt that bad so they are off to a good start.

everyone always says theyre a so and so fan then make a shitty movie. This shouldnt be about those that didnt get into the school. DOFP should present extreme threat that they create a killsquad for

RexDartEskimoSpy - 7/29/2013, 11:52 AM
It'll be Wolverine, Logan, James Howlett, Patch, and a sexy female character. Probably X-23.

I've heard that Deadpool was toned down heavily in this series, that's probablly what they'll do otherwise it will come off looking ridiculous. The way Reynolds portrayed the character for the first 20 minutes of Origins is the way to go.

He pretty much confirmed the line-up.

Cable
Deadpool
Psylocke
Domino
Colossus

Cool

Deadpool only if they have him full on costume. No bullshit.

mrHJK - 7/29/2013, 11:53 AM
In X-Force, I want Cable, Deadpool, Domino, Psyloche and Colossus. But first, they should make the Deadpool movie and it even has Colossus in the script.

mrHJK - 7/29/2013, 11:54 AM
Now, who's the villain going to be?

Kate Beckinsale has to play Psylocke.

wadlow is more upfront than most of these insiders, so he has brownie points right off the bat in my book! Sounds like he is thinking of psylocke, domino, deadpool and colossus for the team

with either cable or wolvie to lead. Also seems like its gonna be more uncanny x-force than post-new mutants stuff. hopefully that means New Mutants will be one of the other "franchises" millar was talking about for the future.

For God's sake, please get it right this time, Fox!! \o/

I'd love to see Cyclops in this so maybe the character could finally get some justice. Also if you're doing Cable how are you going to do him? That dude's history is crazy convoluted. Seeing how you offed Cyclops & that's the only mutant who isn't coming back in DOFP who's Cable's parents?

BatsFan - 7/29/2013, 12:03 PM
Please be rated R
wcwpoet
wcwpoet - 7/29/2013, 12:06 PM
Cable
Deadpool
Psylocke
Domino
Colossus

If that's the line-up I'm sold. Fox does at least have a chance to do what Marvel Studios is doing with there cinematic Universe. Because X-Men stable of characters is just as expansive in it's own right.

Deadpool and Wolverine and I'm sold...but at least rated R....if it will be PG13 I will loose hope.

Domino and Psylocke HAVE to appear.

Domino is very iconic to X Force and Psylocke is such a kick ass woman and visually shed be great to see.

But this is Fox, they couldn't even keep the original lineup for the First Class movie so I won't be holding my breath for Domino and Psylocke.

I hope that Days Of Futures Past and X-Force is 100 times better than The Wolverine. The Wolverine was boring and had less action. I only hope that Cyclops is in Days of Futures Past. Also in X-Force I wish the line up is Cable, Deadpool, Domino, sunspot, Warpath, psylocke, and my favorite X-Men....Cyclops.

Cyclops is my favorite X-man character. My worse X-men character is Wolverine.
