New Deadpool 2 set photos parachute in, director David Leitch praises Josh Brolin’s Cable

August 3, 2017 by Gary Collinson

This week has already brought us a couple of official Deadpool 2 images featuring Zazie Beetz’s Domino [see here and here], and now a new batch of set photos have arrived online via JustJared, which show the Merc with a Mouth hanging from a parachute.

This #Deadpool stunt was filmed today which featured the leading character hanging from a parachute! See the pics: https://t.co/U9oAM2GiPc

Meanwhile, speaking to IGN, director David Leitch has offered some words of praise for Josh Brolin, who is taking on the role of Cable: “When he graciously agreed to do the role, Ryan and I were through the roof; we love him. He’s such a great actor, he brings a humanity to Cable, but he also has the depth of acting chops to hang with the comedy when needed. He’s bringing that character to life in the short 12 days we’ve been shooting and I couldn’t be happier.”

Hopefully we’ll get to see the first image of Brolin’s Cable sooner rather than later…

Deadpool 2 sees David Leitch (John Wick) directing a cast that includes returning stars Ryan Reynolds (Wade Wilson), Morena Baccarin (Vanessa), T.J. Miller (Weasel), Brianna Hildebrand (Negasonic Teenage Warhead), Stefan Kapicic (Colossus), Leslie Uggams (Blind Al) and Karan Soni (Dopinder) alongside new additions Zazie Beetz (Atlanta) as Domino, Josh Brolin (Avengers: Infinity War) as Cable, Jack Kesy (The Strain) as the film’s villain, and Shioli Kutsuna (The Outsider) and Julian Dennison (Hunt for the Wilderpeople) in as-yet-unrevealed roles. It is set for release on June 1st 2018.
