“While nothing is official just yet, it looks like Fox could be hiring Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, the writers of Zombieland, to script the adventures of the Merc With A Mouth. I did my due diligence and asked around but couldn’t get a solid confirmation, so regard this one as a strong rumor… But if it’s more than a rumor – and my source tells me there could be a trade break announcing this within days – it’s actually a very good sign for Deadpool.”
And indeed it is a very good sign as it this could be a strong, positive indication of where Fox wants to go with the character. Most of the pieces already seem to be in place, so now it’s just a wait and see as movement on this project continues.
