DEADPOOL 2: Cable Actor Shortlist Reportedly Has 2 Frontrunners



Two weeks ago actor Ryan Reynolds officially revealed the actress would be playing the mutant Domino in DEADPOOL 2 (see post link below). Today, according to The Hollywood Reporter and first reported by Collider, it seems like the actor shortlist for the role of Cable has slimmed down to two frontrunners.

Actors Michael Shannon (General Zod in MAN OF STEEL) and David Harbour (STRANGER THINGS) are the two prominent names on 20th Century Fox and Reynolds' want list.

Cable is a very important, and long term, role since he will not only debut in DEADPOOL 2 but he will co-headline an R-rated X-FORCE ensemble movie in a few years with Deadpool, too. To read more about Cable on Marvel's character page, click right here.

DEADPOOL 2 is currently in development and will begin filming later this year for a 2018 release.
