We already wrote about his involvement in
Deadpool and
R.I.P.D.
Now, he has revealed that he'll probably have to choose between the two and admits that only one of them will likely be made with him.
Still, he has not made a decision yet, saying “I never say I'm doing a movie until I break for lunch the first day.” Well, thank you,
Ryan Reynolds!
So, the actor was expected to appear in both comic book adaptations but has now suggested that he may have to choose between the two roles.
Speaking to
io9 the actor revealed:
“Neither is next. I shoot a movie called ‘
The Change-Up‘ next,” he explained.
“It's kind of like an R-rated comedy, and right after that I start on a thriller called ‘Safe House' with Denzel Washington. And then, after that is where one of those two movies will hopefully fall.”
Reynolds also added: “I'll be in either ‘
Deadpool' or ‘RIPD,' but probably not both. People sort of ask this question, like I have any say in the matter. They're both movies I'm interested in, they're both movies that are in fast-track development. But I never say I'm doing a movie until I break for lunch the first day.
Because it's such a crapshoot, this industry. Everything's so fickle and so contingent on so many factors, aside from just an actor. And because it has an actor, and because these films have interested directors, it's obviously likely that they'll both get made. But I think it would be more likely that only one of them gets made with me.”
As usual, we'll keep an eye on his work, and in the mean time, let us remind you that he can next be seen in
Rodrigo Cortes'
Buried which opens in select theaters September 24th and nationwide on October 8th.
Make sure you stay tuned for more updates!
