While chatting to Total Film, the R.I.P.D actor describes waiting for the long-planned Deadpool flick to materialize as being like "the worst relationship I've ever had!" It does seem that Reynolds is still interested, but for how much longer?
We've been hearing about a solo movie outing for the Merc With A Mouth since X-Men Origins: Wolverine left fans disappointed (putting it mildly) with our first big-screen incarnation of the character back in 2009. We know there's a script -- a brilliant one at that -- from Zombieland duo Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, and there's even a director attached in Tim Miller, but for a variety of reasons the movie has just never managed to get off the ground. Ryan Reynolds is apparently still on board to reprise the role of Wade Wilson, but he sounds like he's getting a little frustrated with the situation in an interview with Total Film. He also reveals a bit of info from the highly praised script.
"That movie is alive and kicking, and then it's dead as a doornail. Then it's alive and kicking and then it's dead it's like the worst relationship I've ever had! The character knows he's a comic-book character, he knows he's in a film, he knows who the executives are at the studio making the movie. In the current iteration of the script, Deadpool is aware of the Wolverine movie. He doesn't say anything disparaging about it but he does at one point play with the Deadpool action figure with some curiosity."
