Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool? February 19th, 2008, posted by FofR

Well, here’s yet another casting rumor. This time it comes via Aint it Cool, Ryan Reynolds to play Deadpool:

Well, today we can exclusively ask you… how about if Ryan Reynolds is playing [Deadpool]?

This one’s supposed to be a secret, but cat’s out of the bag now, Marvel. And I have to say… I think it sounds like fun. I know this has been a character you guys have been developing for years now (hell, I think I pitched a DEADPOOL film back in 2001), and Reynolds is absolutely the right guy for the job.

Taylor Kitsch as Gambit in Wolverine Movie? February 19th, 2008, posted by FofR

Casting rumors are all the rage these days it seems. Superherohype are reporting via a spurious “my friend is excited” message board post that Taylor Kitsch has been cast as Gambit. Personally I am sceptical, and a lot of websites are passing this around as fact, which it is not. One thing’s for sure, he’s a dead ringer for the character.

Silver Fox now Lynn Collins? February 16th, 2008, posted by FofR

Third rumor of the day for you here, the IESB are now reporting that the role of Silver Fox is not going to the previously reported Maggie Q or Michelle Monaghan, but instead to Texan Lynn Collins. They have been wrong on two occasions previous so we have to certify this as nothing more than a rumor until we get some concrete evidence!

Lynn Collins (Number 23, Bug) has beat both beauties for the highly coveted role of Kayla Silverfox A.K.A. Silver Fox. We have been able to confirm the casting news with our sources at the studio.

Wolverine is finishing up its New Zealand shoot this weekend and will be headed to Australia early next week for the remainder of the production.

The Blob in Wolverine? February 16th, 2008, posted by FofR

Rumors are flying today in the world of Wolverine, currently situated in New Zealand. We’ve got another one for you from FilmSchoolRejects, with a report that a man in a Blob suit has been spotted on set. We’re still classifying this as a rumor for now - at least until we get our own pictures.

We got a note from someone who was on set this week while they shot test footage of an actor in a huge rubber suit for The Blob. The interesting part is that they made the suit to look like The Blob was about 800lbs, but producers want to make him bigger, something like 1200lbs. I did some research (as I am not too familiar with The Blob’s history) and I found that he was around 500lbs. originally.

Danny Huston cast as Stryker? February 16th, 2008, posted by FofR

Joblo are exclusively reporting that the infamous young Stryker role, previously attached to Liev Schreiber and Michael C Hall could now have gone to one Danny Huston.

A source close to the production tells us that actor Danny Huston (30 DAYS OF NIGHT) has signed on to star as William Stryker in WOLVERINE and is already on location in New Zealand prepping for his part. Odd since I had heard that Hall also was in New Zealand but that could’ve just been rumors.
