MEET.. CABLE EVERYONE!

The merc with a mouth has a new nemesis, and Culturedemandsgeeks finally get to see this beloved bad-guy thanks from Mr R Reynolds (Twitter account), himself…

Sure there have been more radical designs of the character, but this one seems to be faithful enough to the comic version of Cable, complete with glowing eye and mechanical arm.

After the first images of Zazie Beetz’s Domino came out, a lot of fans have been curious as to when they were going to get their first look at Cable. After all, Cable had been teased way back with the post-credits scene of the first Deadpool movie.

To those who don’t know, Cable is the son of Scott Summers a.k.a. Cyclops, and Madleyne Pryor—a clone of Jean Grey created by Mister Sinister. With Cable’s comic origin being very complicated, it’s said that the movie version’s backstory will be simplified to fit the narrative better.

What’s really important is that they stay true to the character like they did with Deadpool…

Besides Nate Summers and Domino, Deadpool 2 will also see the return of characters Weasel, Blind Al, Vanessa, and the cab driver Dopinder.
