It wasn't too long ago that 'Deadpool' premiered in theaters and broke new records for movie debuts in the month of February. Once its sequel was greenlit, director Tim Miller immediately got thinking about possibilities for the second installment - focusing mainly on the appearance of the infamous time-traveling Marvel character Cable. Miller stated in a recent interview, "There?s a lot about Cable?s history that I like because he?s so intertwined with the world of the X-Men. Why he was put together with Deadpool ? other than that he was in a comic that wasn?t selling well and Deadpool was in a comic that wasn?t selling well so they put them together ? it?s the same reason we had Colossus; he?s a straight man. And I think Deadpool needs a straight man. Cable is the ultimate, archetypal, silent, strong and cynical warrior, which Deadpool is not."
