Looks like the spate of comic adaptations isn’t slowing any, as you’ll see from today’s news. First up is that of Ryan Reynolds currently seen in The Amityville Horror remake. According to FilmRoach through Coming Soon he’s been talking seriously about two Superroles.
‘FilmRoach’ tells us that The Amityville Horror and Blade: Trinity star Ryan Reynolds said today in Los Angeles that he will star as The Flash if the project goes ahead.
Not only did he say he would love to play Deadpool, but he confirmed that he had a meeting the previous night with David Goyer, and if Warner Bros. green lights his script, he said, “I am the Flash.”
Cool, good news. Flash would be a fun movie to see (again, the usual caveat of “if it’s done right” applies), and Deadpool was one cool character that I always liked as a kid. Surely that’s all the good news we could bring on that one? Yes actually it is, there’s only bad news.
Blade: Trinity writer/director and Batman Begins writer David Goyer has committed to write, produce and direct the feature adaptation of DC Comics’ The Flash.
Oh dear. Hands up if you think this is going to be a stinker? What does everyone else think, would they like to see these two characters on screen? Actually, if they were going to take any one character out of the remaining pool of Supes, which would it be and why would it make a good movie?
