The news and updates regarding the much anticipated sequel to Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool are coming thick and fast.
Just yesterday we learnt of the film casting its villain with actor Jack Kesey, and now the actor behind the character Weasel, T.J. Miller, is teasing the amplification of his role during the movie.
Speaking to MovieWeb while promoting his film The Emoji Movie, Miller said: “Marvel will cut off my hand and tongue if I tell you. But…let me just tell you that the second installment will be even more weaselicious… Let me just put it that way, to quote Pauly Shore. I’m very excited about it.”
Miller also commented on what it means to the cast and crew that Deadpool 2 is of a certain quality.
“I’m so excited. I know it means so much to Ryan that it’s good, and for the writers, and for all of us actually,” reflected Miller. “The first one did so well, people loved it so much. I think they really put the time in on the script. I ’m just so excited.”
