Hugh Jackman is reprising his role in the new X-Men Origins: Wolverine film, and he's going to have some very interesting actors joining him in the flick.
Both Ryan Reynolds and Black Eyed Peas rapper Will.I.Am have been announced as characters in the movie, though no word on who they will be playing just yet.
Liev Schreiber, Danny Huston and Lynn Collins round out the cast as Sabretooth, William Stryker and Silver Fox, respectively.
Three peeps have been added to the cast.
That's an interesting mix.
Who do you think Ryan could play????
Update:

DEADPOOL…ladies…DEADPOOL. Ryan Reynolds even commented a week ago on how playing DEADPOOL fitted him.
this dudes EYES are way too small for his head. It's freaky
Ryan is so playing Gambit!! HOTNESS!!!
years ago i said rynolds wud be great as gambit, hope he is!
I should be a casting director cuz he looks like GAMBIT, hands down!
He's going to play Deadpool, the merc with a mouth. The perfect fit.
For the love of God, I will pay someone to keep Will.I.Am. out of this project. If he comes within a foot of it, it will turn to sh*t. I'm serious. Please. Kill. Him.
Deadpool…he will play Deadpool.
"Even Ain't It Cool News has gotten in on the Wolverine casting rumor fun, speculating that none other than Ryan Reynolds has been chosen to play the "merc with a mouth," Deadpool." -Rotten Tomatoes.com
Ryan

EYE CANDY YAAAAY!!!!
EYE CANDY YAAAAY!!!!
The first time I saw him was in the "In- Laws"? He was hot then and hotter now. Brad Pitt -step aside. At least this great-looking guy doesn't go around holding orphans for his girlfriend.
Please bring us more pix of Ryan. He's hotter than hot!
I agree with him being the guy who walks around naked!!
He would be an awsome gambit
He's playing Deadpool fo sho. The guy from Friday Night Lights is playing Gambit
i love will.i.am can't wait to see him.
Why is he soo good looking??? I don't get it?? Can someone be this cute?!?! Is that allowed?? Me lo como!!!!!
i dunno…
um insanely sexy male?
I saw Liev Schreiber on Broadway in "Talk Radio"–and to think he's going to be THISCLOSE to Ryan's delicious SAUSAGE is just MOUTHWATERING!!!
he isn't playing Gambit. some kit from Friday night lights is playing Gambit.
Rumor is that Reynolds will play Deadpool

Erection man 4 sure … or I can just play with his erection instead!
Liev Schreiber, Ryan Reynolds, Hugh JACKman, wow, they're all just so very SLURP-A-LICIOUS!
i think he looks great… always
he is playing Deadpool!
the dude has close set eyes and a weird ass head.
he does have a really nice body though
He IS playing Deadpool.
Re: huh –
Not really. Looks pretty well proportioned. Too wide set eyes is much uglier than close set ones. And they aren't even that close set.
He is actually cast as Deadpool, some other dude is Gambit
He can play me! Hot ! Hot! Hot!! (quoted by Robert Smith)
hes very good looking.
Gambit
who cares who Ry plays.. he's ZEXY regardless imo
Re: Chachados – AGREES.. minus the killing.. that would be wrong
Is he wearing make-up?
TAYLOR KITSCH IS PLAYING GAMBIT!
Sorry folks….it's been confirmed. he will be Deadpool. Gambit will be int he movie but played by Taylor Kitsch of Friday night lights.

Gambit! I've been missing Gambit in the first 3 movies and Reynolds is tall, handsome, and buff llike Gambit. (also, being Canadian he can probably pull off a french accent!)
I want to play Night Queefs..Defender of Queefs!
gambit
dumbass
o course
He's DEF playing Deadpool, Taylor Kitsch is Gambit
Jill (#11) - You said it! He's AMAZING!!!!
He'd be the guy with the power to make women fall to the ground in writhing orgasms and guys would just do anything to be his friend (mostly to get his leftovers).
aintitcoolnews and attack of the show have already declared him as deadpool…hours and hours ago.
he's been confirmed to play deadpool
deadpool cuz gambit az already been cast
Yo Perez!
Here's the real scoop. Hope it helps. Taylor Hytsch (Friday Night Lights on tv, and The Covenant) will be playing Gambit. Ryan Reynolds is rumored to play Deadpool, a mutant warrior with incredibly advanced healing abilities.
That's about it, so enjoy!
Ryan will be playing Deadpool, the sardonic mercenary anti-hero and Taylor Kitsch will be playing Gambit,
i had heard that silverfox was going to be played by that Maggie Q chick. and IMDB says she is still rumored
Dickbag, the Wonderboy? Jeez, how does this loser keep getting work?
Seriously, I just wish he would play with me
he is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo hot…..God…Hes sexy. I hope he doesnt go bad as in Rehabb
Ryan Reynolds = Deadpool (best ever, IMO)
Will.I.Am = Wraith
What the fuck is going on here with all the terrible castings and movies for X-Men??!! As an avid fan, I just feel tortured because everytime one comes out, i feel compelled to go see it anyway to give the benefit of the doubt and they never prove me wrong to be better than their predecessor! Okay guys, I understand that Wolverine is such a fucking cool character and hes totally bad-ass with all his "you egg sucking gutter trash" talk but really ALL of the movies seem to be revolved around him when our favorite mutant characters got left out in the cold from character development!! C'mon the first one was basically about when he met the X-MEN, the second was about his relationship with William Stryker and the third one was about his stupid undying love for Jean Grey while she goes Phoenix pyscho on us…Seriously, I am pretty much pissed off as I write this because some of you females don't know who Deadpool or Gambit is but rather see some eye candy of an actor play them. B-O-R-I-N-G!! We fans actually will like to see an X-Men that follows this history of the comics with continuity and accuracy. If Will.I.AM or whatever the fuck his name is…is playing a mutant in this movie but I'm sorry I'll wait for it when it comes on DVD.
he can play my daddy i will be the mommy
he fits gambits profile to a tee!
can't wait!
gambit fo shizz perez
He looks like a young Jim Carrey.
He is fucking hot…who is he???
He better not be Gambit. I'll be pissed! And why are they replacing characters? Two replacements, this movie is already going to suck. Replacing Tyler Mane with Liev Schreiber is like replacing Johnny Depp with Joseph Fiennes, not near as hot and just not quite right for the parts the original actor is perfect for, and just not a good replacing all around.
i don't know what character he'd play but he is sooo hot!
Ryan is hot! I'd let him eat crackers in my bed anytime!
Those of who are saying that he should play Gambit are a bunch of fucking retards.
DEADPOOL. Some guy from FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS is playing GAMBIT. aintitcool.com

gambit and bishop
Ryan Reynolds is definitely playing Deathstrike, he is a hero that never got that much attention in the comic book world, but is definitely one to be watched. Just check out movie blogs like darkhorizons and slashflim and you'll find the details on the casting tidbits.
Deadpool fools
GAMBIT!!!!
Gambit! For sure!!!
I heard a rumor he'll be playing Dead Pool.
RYAN COULD PLAY THE MAN IN MY BED EVERY NIGHT!.LOL
RYAN= FUCKIN SEXY!
Ryan's playing as DEADPOOL. [!]
HE IS FLY AND SMOKING INDEED….I JUST WANNA LICK
Reynolds is rumored to be playing Deadpool. Taylor Kitsch of 'Friday Night Lights' has been confirmed (at least by Empireonline.com) to be cast as Gambit.
You guys should really read aintitcoolnews.com for the geeky stuff. Perez is good for the celeb stuff, but aicn is the one-stop geek spot.
Ryan Reynolds is playing DEADPOOL.
Taylor Kitsch of Friday Night Lights fame is playing GAMBIT.
Gambit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He will hopefully play Deadpool. I'm not sure if they will include Deadpool in this movie but they should.
GAMBIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE GAMIT!
GAMBITO!!! ayyy mi madreee yo me voy a morir si ese hombres hace de gambitoooo ! mi personaje favorito de x-men! que bellooooooooooooo
he's adorable
Gambit shouldn't be in the movie he has nothing to do with wolverines past
Gaurdian of Alpha Flight would make sense for our Canadian actor. Dead pool is a hot character and he's already dead so um he doesn't die.
Im not really into the movies, but I'm hoping Gambit will be involved.
According to MTV: Ryan Reynolds will cameo as Deadpool and Taylor Kitsch is set to play Gambit in Gavin Hood's "X-Men Origins: Wolverine," due May 1, 2009.
Fug! he so Fug.
definitely gambit..no doubt about it. he is perfect for the fox known
as Gambit
Wow Perez….we've known he's going to play Deadpool since yesterday!
Im pretty sure its DEADPOOL.
GAMBIT
he sucks as an actor. a b movie actor at best.
SEPARATED AT BIRTH!! This dude (whoever he may be) and Kate Beckinsale! Look at the crossed, medium-brown eyes, the upside-down-club-shaped nose (from the deck of cards!) TWINS!!
Ryan's not a bad looking guy. However, he really needs to start playing down that gigantic forehead. The fact that he's rapidly receding doesn't help much either.
Ryan Reynolds - Hot / Ryan Reynolds FOREHEAD - Not Hot
Dude, play it down for your own sake, and ours!
Much Hate,
Chingfly
Vote Osama Barakladen
Don't care what he plays, as long as he does it without a shirt. Perez, you should've shown the Men's Health cover of Ryan, looking amazing. Hottest body in Hollywood.
I have to agree with (Chingfly). Reynolds forehead is freakin disgusting, and frankly scares me to death. He is still a cutie tho, reminds me of Wade Redden for the nhl.
With a lot of makeup and a fat suit, he could play you, perez as Shrek!!!
