Now that 20th Century Fox has finally pulled the trigger on Deadpool, it seems the studio and director Tim Miller are starting to turn their eye to the supporting cast for the Merc with the Mouth’s first solo outing.
According to The Wrap, T.J. Miller (Transformers: Age of Extinction) and Ed Skrein (Game of Thrones) are both in talks for the film, which will see Ryan Reynolds reprising his role from X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
The site reports that Miller would play “an additional comic voice to compliment Deadpool”, while Skrein could potentially portray the film’s as-yet-unrevealed villain.
Deadpool is set for release on February 12th 2016, and is one of three Marvel movies from Fox next year, the other’s being X-Men: Apocalypse and Gambit.
