Robert Rodriguez directing DEADPOOL is pretty likely?

Just over a month ago, it was rumored that Robert Rodriguez was offered the director’s chair for Marvel’s upcoming DEADPOOL film. Very little real information was known before, other than that he had been given the script for review. Now the word is that the talks have gotten very serious, and the final deal is being worked out.

DEADPOOL would most likely be Robert Rodriguez’s next film after his big third sequel in the SPY KIDS franchise. This would also work out well for Ryan Reynolds’ schedule, as he would be wrapping up all of his upcoming projects (including press for GREEN LANTERN). With a schedule this perfect, chances seem to be good.

It’s hard to think of another director who could really “get” Deadpool more than Robert Rodriguez, particularly if the film is R-rated. Rodriguez is always at his top game with an R-rating, and Deadpool is the perfect character for that type of harder superhero film.

What do you guys think of a Robert Rodriguez-directed DEADPOOL film? Would it work as PG-13?

    I'm with you. I think that if the enjoyment factor of the film will be much higher if it is R.

    Also agree with #1. Every single time First Blood is on TV I watch it (which has been happening a lot on AMC). Just a damn good movie. Really original protagonist and some really good antagonists too.

    In my honest opnion that even though it was obviously a professional article I have personally come to the conclusion that there were still points to be expanded. I would like to hear your thoughts..and that of your other readers and whether or not they have decided the same themselves. Cheers

    Site owner, I think possibly your web server stopped working yesterday because I found this page through Bing and all I saw was a connection timeout page. I would email your hosting provider to make sure that it doesnt do it again as your losing visitors. I was using Safari browser if that helps.
