"Deadpool 2" is still in the works which are the result of the first movie's success. "Deadpool" hit the box office with $783 million from the worldwide release. Even if director Tim Miller abandoned the sequel, lead actor Ryan Reynolds along with the producers and studio are doing their best for the second movie to surpass any assumption.

Both John Wick and David Leitch will collaborate to directing "Deadpool 2" while looking for other characters. The follow-up movie will feature some characters from the comic book which started with Domino who is the female lead which will be played by Zazie Beets. Cable is also a comic book character but the production are haven't decided yet who will play the role.

According to a Collider report, sources informed that 20th Century Fox is eyeing Brad Pitt to play the role of Cable for "Deadpool 2" which is good since both parties show interest. However, since the new movie is in the mode of modification, expect that there will a lot of changes. Pitt will soon be occupied in starring in his own produced film "World War 2 Z" once Paramount gave the go signal.

Recently, a report emerged that the leading choice to portray Cable was Michael Shannon as well as David Harbour who starred in "Stranger Things". The two actors joined the roster but no details yet if they are interested too.

ComicBook, on the other hand, has found eight images on Reddit for "Deadpool 2" which showed Pitt as Cable along with other characters such as Deadpool, Domino, and Juggernaut. The production house 20th Century Fox along with the members neither denied nor confirmed the legitimacy of the leaked images.

It is still uncertain if casting for the role of Cable for "Deadpool 2" will conclude and who would be the lucky actor. However, directors Leitch and Wick together with 20th Century Fox and Deadpool himself, Reynolds will make sure that the sequel will be totally different from the previous movie. As of the moment, the new movie has no release date yet.
