Interesting X-Men Casting News!
Filed under: Canadialand > Film Flickers > Australiastic > Ryan Reynolds > Hugh Jackman
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:
Ryan Reynolds is set to play Deadpool, "Friday Night Lights" regular Taylor Kitsch to star as Gambit and will.i.am is joining the cast as John Wraith.

Will is playing John Wraith and Ryan is playing Deadpool a Canadian mercenary both are said to be cameos…figured Perez would be more stoked over Friday Night Lights' Taylor Kitsch playing Gambit with a signed deal for three movies playing the character.
he can't play gambit. Josh Holloway is.
>_
What, no!!!!!! Not Gambit….I thought Josh Holloway (Sawyer from Lost) was the fave to play Gambit
I think the perfect fit shoud be playing Deadpool.He's really handsome. I saw his nice profile on ”sugardaddychat.
com ” last week. The profile is sincere and hot with nice photos.
He's very popular there.
he can play ME.
hopefully he will play naked man who has a graphic sex scene (with oral and anal penetration) with hugh jackman. that'd be a lot better than watching an x-men movie
OMG… I'm too excited. Shirtless Hugh, here I come!!!!
ACK! I'm still excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gambit? na-aaa. NORTHSTAR!!!
gay gay gay.. gayer tha HIM 0 www. myspace .com / jordanj
fcuk fags
forget it Perez, HE'S NOT GAY!!!!!
i loove Van Wilder.
MORPH HE WILL PLAY MORPH!
wow, no idea perez liked X-MEN. this is the last place i thought i'd get nerdy. fact: hugh jackman is hot, wolverine made his career, and he's got a great future ahead. fact: taylor kitsch is gambit, he'll be effing sexy. fact: ryan reynolds is deadpool, but his mutant power makes him fugly, so no ogling. opinion: this prequel horseshit pisses me off. don't the studios know what a success those movies were? yes, they get more costly, but if everyone got a flat rate and a profit percentage, they could tell stories that wouldn't need only x-men 2 level effects with some good character and plot development that still blows up real good. they'd make money if they were half decent. some x-men i'd like to see: havok, polaris, banshee, sunfire, thunderbird, phoenix (rachel summers), dazzler, longshot, forge, and cable. for villains: mastermind, proteus, or mister sinister would be radical. also: quicksilver and the scarlet witch would be nifty, although they'll be in an avengers movie even if they're magneto's kids. movie storylines: x-men 4 (days of future past); x-men 5 (morlock massacre); x-men 6 (fall of the mutants). never happen: a "new mutants" movie (i love the 80s!), but that's just fantasy. anyone know an actor to play havok? oh well, let's get back to nude lindsay and how milo is too old for hayden. btw, great divas show, perez! how you got all those stars, i've got no idea, but you're a real man now!
Gambit, without a doubt
FUGLY FUGLY FUGLY FUGLY FUGLY FUGLY FUGLY FUGLY FUGLY FUGLY FUGLY FUGLY FUGLY
FUGLY
FUGLY
Hopefully the filmakers will actually make the movie INTERESTING!
They've all sucked in the past.
Ryan Reynolds' chin looks like a saggy tit.
WHAT A FUCKING CHIN!!
WHAT A FUCKING CHIN!!
WHAT A FUCKING CHIN!!
WHAT A FUCKING CHIN!!
he's def gonna play gambit….
cant wait for the movie 2 come out when there done filmin some day:P
He'd be a great as Gambit!
He'd be great as Gambit!
He's soo odly good looking. I want to see him in the tightest super hero costume.
I imagine he has a nice package. Xo lick!! Love him!!
Gambit!!!!!!!!
he could play "Giant Forehead Man" and he could blind people by reflecting light off of his monstrous dome.
he'll play deadpool. it's perfect really. as we all saw in blade trinity the boy can beef up and deadpool is hysterically funny in a psychotic way so that'll be great!
now i have to have a fangirl moment *Squeals* they're finally putting gambit in the film!! YAH! after 2 false alarms this is looking very very very promising. i haven't been this excited since i heard they were making a transformers film *say what you like i enjoyed it*
Re: jenbunny –
i totally agree with you. last place i also thought i'd get my nerd on. here's what i'm a lil' confused about. would gambit be introduced because of his connection with sabertooth like in the comics….or will hollywood create a reason?
I was a little worried about the "X-Men Origins" idea, but now I'm excited! Sounds great! Especially if they have 2 uber-hoy guys like Hugh AND Ryan shirtless. Now I hope they somehow incorporate a 69 scene between the two of them into the film!
I LOVE THIS MAN……..HE WAS IN A NATIONAL LAMPOONS MOVIE VAN WILDER
I hope he plays "Teabagger" and there's a graphic scene where Hugh sits on Ryan's face and makes him suck his ballsack until he explodes all over that chiseled chest! HOT!
I hate this guy, he is such a lame-o.
he has really come far from the national lampoonish movies he used to do. he looks like a leading man now.he oughta give his stylist a fat bonus
Great cast. I'm not sure aboue Schreiber as Sabretooth, cause he supposed to be a big guy, but I'll definitely see this.
I want to see Hugh and Ryan in XXX-men. Hugh the sexy older Daddy and Ryan his hot Otter boy-toy. Rawr!
Ryan Reynolds!!!! OMG, my lover from another life!!! I will definitely watch this xman for him!!! I skipped out on the third one, so I didn't get to see cyclops die, boohoo….
THESE MOVIES ARE THE WORST F'ING MOVIES BEING MADE!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE ANYONE PAYS TO WATCH THIS SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He's gross. Plus he's rude to fans. Whateves with him. ScarJo needs to let him go. She's way too good for him. Plus his movies suck
It better be Gambit he's playing.
will.i.am
Ryan Reynolds is SO grogeous!! YUMMY
Hooooooooooooot…. I loves me some Ryan and that other guy to play Gambit aint too shabby either! And then coupled with Hugh.. *droooools*
ia ctually thought in the third x-men they would have gambit and Ryan seemed like the perfect fit but taylor should be great also im excited hopefully its better than the third xmen which SUCKED
YES!!!!!! I hope halle berry comes back as storm or they have an older storm maybe….
awesomeeeeeeeeeeee gambits finally gonna be in one ive been waitin for him to be in one
Wow, the meat of that post was copy/paste from Variety.. Not much actuall 'writing' here, eh?
Make-up Man?
I will see the movie just for Ryan! HOt!
I cannot stand Ryan Reynolds. Dont know why but he seems so smug all the time. And I think he was pretty much a loser until he started dationg Charlize. Dud!
RYAN, WILL PROBABLY PLAY GAMBIT FOR SURE. TOTAL LOOK FOR IT
Taylor Kitsch (Gambit)
Ryan Reynolds (some mercenary guy)
Used to do work for Marvel - He's perfect for Deadpool.
Gambit!!!! without a doubt ryan renyolds (one of my fav actors) will be playing one of my fav character from the x-men series!!!
TAYLOR KITSCH! YAY!
FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS IS AN AMAZING SHOW.
Please, BABY JESUS, let his fine ass play Gambit!!!
CHACE CRAWFORD should play gambit.
His hair is PERFECT for that role. Besides he is fucking HOT.
Hottest guy on earth
gambit!!!!!!
they offered the guy who plays sawyer on lost the role of gambit, but he turned it down
everyone just wants him to be gambit I don't care who he plays I just hope the movie doesn't suck ass
Daniel Henney will play Agent Zero.
OH MY FREAKING GOODNESS, THIS MAN IS SO HOT! BEAUTIFUL…… I WOULD LEAVE MY HUSBAND FOR THIS MAN ANYTIME LOL…
his fore/head is GINORMOUS!! is some alien creature thing going to pop out of the top of his head, i feel like i should duck for cover! somethin's gonna BLOOOOWWWWW!
This is where I draw the line at Hollywood. The only person who I thought was cool has become a sell out. Scarlett Johanson and her uneducated big titted enthuthiasm for anyone who is concieved of a little bit left of centre - whoo a nose ring like a bull… she is so crazy. And now she can sing apparently??? Out of control! and YOU….who I thought had some kind of soul has leant it to the dark side along with your patheitic peers ie: Josh Duhamel ( I now put you in the same boat) Not that you would care at all about any of this anymore. Don some more lame arse chick flicks and live off your girlfriends titts….
