Actor Ryan Reynolds has shared the first look of Josh Brolin in costume as Cable, the time traveling mutant soldier who will debut on the big screen next year in Deadpool 2. As you can see, he definitely looks the part and also appears to be appropriately playful in regards to the upcoming comedic superhero sequel. Brolin inked a four-film deal with Fox, so look for Cable to be sticking around in the X-Men cinematic universe for years to come.
You can find Reynolds’ full tweet below, as well as a second promotional still of Cable below it. I have also attached the recently-released look at Zazie Beetz’s Domino, since we missed posting it the first time around. You’ll find it at the bottom of the piece. Enjoy!
We all have that one, grumpy, heavily armed Uncle from the future.
