According to Deadline, 20th Century FOX has hired Drew Goddard to direct and write the upcoming X-Force movie, which will focus on "a Black Ops force of down and dirty mutant warriors who are far more ruthless than their X-Men counterparts."
The report also confirms that Ryan Reynolds' Deadpool and Josh Brolin's Cable will return to lead the team - though there's no mention of which other characters will also feature. Domino (Zazie Beetz) is probably a safe enough bet, however.
Many fans have been hoping to see Goddard take the reigns of his his superhero property for quite a while, so this is great news.
Reynolds will produce X-Force along with Simon Kinberg and Lauren Shuler Donner. Goddard is expected to get working on the script soon.
