So, Blindside Dork beat me too the Gambit news, but I still got something for ya, I swear!
Looks like Ryan Reynolds has taken a small role as that wise-cracking mercenary with the mangled face, Deadpool! Evidently Reynolds is a hardcore Deadpool fan and had said months ago that he would "forgo anything" to play Deadpool in some form. Well, he got his wish. Again, it is supposed to be a small role, but one that could possibly set Deadpool up for his own movie, as Marvel is doing more to set up character cross-ups now that they have more say-so in the final outcomes. You know Sam Jackson is playing Nick Fury in Iron Man, but did you know that Iron Man will be appearing in The Incredible Hulk? Awesome, huh?
Not only that, but Will.I.Am of the Black-Eyed Peas will have some sort of cameo role in Woverine movie AND the Blob will make an appearance.

it looks like everyone is talking about the Wolverine movie today! I hope it's good but I'm a little worried.
The movie will bomb cause Hugh Jackman is in charge of it.
Dude, Hugh Jackman was Van Helsing AND Wolverine, give the man some respeck!
Hugh Jackman is awesome. He knows how to portray Wolverine, I have much faith.
I would love a Deadpool movie.
There are about 6 post on the front cblogs about the wolverine movie.
ITS OKAMI FOR THE WII ALL OVER AGAIN, NO!
Weedgan: There's 3. They're all different. Chill.
And all 3 different blogs add something new to the subject, so it's ok IMO.
will.i.am AS The Blob? It's possible, and would be FUCKING AWESOME.
I need to read me some Deadpool. I've read next to nothing from DC & Marvel, but I fucking love me some Deadpool.
Why is WillIAm making an appearance. He has nothing to do with this film!
Awesome. I still respect Ryan Reynolds even after Blade 3, so he's totally got the rights (and personality) to play Deadpool.
