There’s been a lot of discussion about Deadpool 2’s Cable star lately, and while reports earlier this month stipulated that 20th Century Fox has been negotiating with James Bond star Pierce Brosnan for the role, fans have been considering other Hollywood stars for the part.
One of the stars that fans want to see playing Deadpool’s (Ryan Reynolds) partner in the highly anticipated Deadpool sequel is Australian actor Russell Crowe. Last weekend, fans prodded the Oscar-winner to try out for the part on Twitter, and the A Beautiful Mind star responded with some interest. Days after the online discussion, the actor continues to entertain the thought of playing Cable, sharing art featuring himself as the telepathic, telekinetic cyborg mutant.

Drawn by Twitter user James Raize, Crowe looks pretty good with his Robotic arms and his half-metallic face, and it’s pretty funny how the artist edits Deadpool as if he were photobombing Cable. While it’s more or less just a fan suggestion now, Crowe would definitely make a good cable – he looks good in Cable’s shoes and besides, he’s had superhero film experience too.
Deadpool 2 is to be directed by David Leitch and will see the return of Reynolds, Brianna Hildebrand, Stefan Kapičić and Karan Soni.
