| RUMOR: Pierce Brosnan as Cable in Deadpool 2 by | Youtube After a ton of new Deadpool 2 details emerged this weekend, a mysterious image posted by both Hugh Jackman and, Deadpool himself, Ryan Reynolds has led some to believe Pierce Brosnan has been cast as Cable! |
Iconic Actor Spoke Up
But now, Pierce, 63, has denied being a part of the movie or anything connection within the film, saying nothing "has come his way yet", implying that there's still time for a role to be offered.
Speaking during a show on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, he said: "Not true. Nothing's come my way yet. It's completely made up. We were sitting waiting for a plane, the three of us, and the guy said, 'Quick. Let's get a photograph. Jump in the center.' Mr. Reynolds said, 'Let's do three-wise-monkeys,' put it out there, and it went viral."
Initially, fans speculated that Pierce would be taking on the role of Cable – an almost friend and sometime foe to the anti-hero Wade Wilson - after it was confirmed that the character would be in the sequel. Whilst Pierce has denied his participation in the production, no actor has yet been eyeing for the role of Cable.

Meanwhile, director David Leitch - who will be taking over the second instalment after Tim Miller left the franchise - has claimed he won't be making sweeping changes to the "loveable" character.
He said: "I think you have to pay respect to this movie that's so adored.
Everybody is waiting for it. And I think we have to find a way to make it particularly our own, and we're doing that. The DNA of Deadpool must not change. He's such a lovable character, we're going to carry that image through."
