Deadpool 3
In a recent interview with Discussing Film, writer Rhett Reese stated Disney has been “very hands-off and supportive” in the development of Deadpool 3.
It’s almost like putting on a comfy old sweater. Marvel’s really given us the support to maintain the tone and the vision that we have for it. They’ve been very hands-off and supportive, but they’ve also let us do what we do. So really, it’s just been fun. We’re mad scientists back in the laboratory again. Deadpool is our favourite who will always be the character I think we’re most associated with, and we’re very grateful for being allowed to write him again. So it’s a blast. It’s like going back to school again after having summer off. It’s pretty fun.
Clue
In the same interview, Reese also revealed he and co-writer Paul Wernick have finished their script for a new Clue movie starring Ryan Reynolds.
We’ve written a draft of Clue, and it’s still in development over at Fox [20th Century Studios]. So it’s sort of bumping forward, whether it becomes a movie or not is generally in the hands of the movie Gods and not ourselves. So we did our best on it. We’re proud of it. We love the franchise, and Ryan [Reynolds’] schedule is a busy one, so he has to choose among many projects. We’ll see if Clue ends up coming to fruition, but it’s something we all care pretty deeply about.
Halloween Ends
You can expect something for Halloween Ends next Wednesday, according to Jamie Lee Curtis on Twitter.
