It’s directed by Tim Miller and stars Ryan Reynolds, Ed Skrein, TJ Miller, Gina Carano, Brianna Hildebrand, Andre Tricoteux, and Morena Baccarin. The actor previously played an alternate version of the character in Wolverine: Origins. Filled with meta-comedy and fourth-wall breaks, the wisecracking Deadpool is played by Ryan Reynolds. Still, it’s definitely great we’ll be getting plenty of Colossus in this highly anticipated film.ĭeadpool is set to hit theaters on February 12, 2016. In the comics, Colossus is known as being a big guy with a heart of gold. With help from X-Men members Colossus and Negasonic Teenage Warhead, he must hunt down the man who changed his life forever. What a cool way to weave these movie universes! If only… Colossus’ younger sister is Illyana, also known as the mutant Magik, who has big ties to Doctor Strange. Of course, here’s where I’m reminded again of what a bummer it is that Marvel and Fox aren’t sharing the film rights for the X-Men. Actually, we kept it exactly like the comic book, so you could be able to derive your own conclusion from that.” David Fincher and James Cameron played a part in pushing the Deadpool. “We kept it very traditional to the comic book. Miller said that Colossus is the gateway drug into the rest of the X-Men universe and he plays the straight man to Deadpool. “I can’t give too much away,” he continues coyly, when asked about the character’s Russian origins and accent. Hurray! We didn’t get nearly enough of Colossus in the original X-Men films and he’s a great character. Yeah, you’re going to get to see a little bit more of who he is and kind of his outlook on the world.” Colossus has been around in the comics since the ’70s, so I mean, I think you could do your own movie on him. But I think there’s still a lot more to be told about him. So yes, I think people will get a better sense of who he is. Like I said, we kept him really traditional to the comic book. “I think you’re going to get to see more of who Colossus is. Hopefully, Deadpool proves to be a successful launching pad for Fox’s more mature mutants.One of the most exciting things about the Deadpool trailer (besides everything) was the inclusion of classic mutant Colossus aka Piotr Nikolaievitch Rasputin, because it confirmed the movie would exist within a larger X-Men universe.īut just how much of Colossus will we see in the film?Īccording to a Tech Times interview with the actor who’s playing him, Andre Tricoteux, quite a lot more: 7 years ago 15 GeorgeWBush Xmen Colossus is probably only comparably durable, iirc it took two Sentinels to rip. I imagine Gambit would be a good place to introduce characters such as Rogue and show off more of the likes of Nightcrawler. Hes far stronger, and more accurate to the character. The characters that can be involved in the film, therefore, do not have to be serious nor as well known. Remy LeBeau is a mutant, but one with much more style and confidence than the mutants in Bryan Singer’s films. Gambit is another place where I think Fox can carefully insert several X-Men characters to make it feel like a more cohesive cinematic universe. While it is unlikely any of them appear in Apocalypse, or even Deadpool, I think we may have a few scenes with some of them in the upcoming Gambit movie. Given how the Fantastic Four bombed in August, and how Fox has state they will continue using the characters in their shared universe, I think it’s more of a given that we will see some of the Fantastic Four characters pop up in the various X-Men films. I wonder what other mutants or X-Men associates we will see in the upcoming films. X-Men: Apocalypse, Deadpool, and Gambit are all, as of right now, slated for 2016. He sounds excited, as if Colossus is going to have a surprising amount of screen time.įox will attempt to sprinkle their other superheroes, such as more recognizable mutants and associates of the Fantastic Four, in their upcoming films. However, it’s interesting to see how Liefield says that Colossus has an actual, substantial role in the film. Given how Fox is trying to establish a cohesive cinematic universe surrounding Fox’s available Marvel properties, it should come as no surprise that such a prominent member of the X-Men will make an appearance in Deadpool. He’s in it – I hope Fox doesn’t get mad at me – he’s in it a good amount. The creator was asked about Colossus’s presence in the film. Liefield, making an appearance at Amazing Comic Con Hawaii, divulged some information on the upcoming Deadpool movie, which is due out in February of 2016. Rob Liefield, the creator of Deadpool, among many other comic book characters, has provided some details on the upcoming film of his beloved character.
