Crazy thought. They cast Cable with multiple actors who appear at different times in the film, from different timelines.
That would be great, so it's definitely not the case.

Michael Shannon is amazing, probably one of my favs.
But him playing Cable ? Not convinced at all.

I'm a fan of Michael Shannon but I'm not really liking him for this role. Would of preferred Stranger Things guy.
Everything needs to be the size of a compact car. If they're going to go with a gag that a different actor plays him in different scenes. Then we better fucking have Rob Liefield rock the metal arm too!
And if there if he only has 2 pouches instead of 4000 I'll be pissed.

going with meta-logic, shouldn't Cable play Cable?
I mean, as much as I love the fuckery here, we're now in 'waaaay too excited' mode. Shannon is a good choice, but so would most other impressive actors be. It's a role, 'tis what they do for a living.

What did he mean by this?

His Nocturnal Animals character was almost Cable already
This is good. He's a very comedic actor but he hides it as dramatic

I haven't seen Shannon in many things but I do know he's an amazing actor so I'd be down with this. The way he sold the death sequence in that biker movie with JGL really fucked me up.

it's certainly something deadpool could bring up in the sequel

Calling it now Cable won't be in the movie, but the post credits scene will be the auditions of everyone rumored to be Cable with Ryan as one of the judges

Yo this is hilarious. Watched like 10 minutes so far and it's a great interview.

Wouldn't be bad choice for the role certainly.

Every single one of the people talkin' bout "I don't know, I can't see it, I don't think he's funny" are going to be in here opening weekend like "Holy shit he fucking stole the whole movie who knew, right?"
We knew, man!
We knew, man!

They should cast no less than 3 famous actors to play Cable, then swap them in and out of random parts of the movie with no one in the film noticing the difference except Deadpool.

I love that a whole weird narrative about multiple people playing the part has sprung up in this thread as a means to explain a lot of posters having busted-as-fuck bullshit detectors.
You mean comiczrumorz.bronsonlee.com might not be an insider?

Didn't that start popping up as a joke even before we had all these casting rumors? Like back when people were joking about Kiera Knightly doing it because of the post-credits stinger?

dude reminds me a bit of the successor to Phillip Seymour Hoffman, with his killer supporting character work. I think this is a partnership that's gotta happen.
while it's awesome seeing Shannon get so much work the downside of it is that he's in fucking everything...and thus can't be in everything else. like he had to turn down a lead in the new Soderbergh movie because he was filming some other movie that he'll likely be good in but won't be as good or interesting a film.
should free up his schedule to work with some more gawds.

I'm so happy I wasn't the only one disappointed by it being a dud.

Michael Shannon is a legitimately great actor and some of you are questioning if he has the chops to pull off a dude bro Rob Liefeld character?
i'm worried he might not have the right feet for the role
Now I want Gary Oldman and/or Nicholas Cage as Cable

He wasn't alone.
Wait, you are talking about Premium Rush's Micheal Shannon?
dang
dang
But he doesn't look exactly like the comic character!

Michael Shannon is the best casting rumor thus far. His crazy look and serious intensity will make it hilarious if he has to play off of the silliness of Ryan Reynolds.
