Latest Movie News (What is this?)
Not a huge surprise but from what I hear Gambit and Dr. Doom are officially dead.

As for X-Force, it's not "Officially" dead, but they only have two months to start filming it and that's not gonna happen. So... not happening, not with Fox anyway.
EXCLUSIVE: Fox has set Drew Goddard to write and direct X-Force, the X-Men spinoff film that revolves around Deadpool and Cable leading a Black Ops force of down and dirty mutant warriors who are far more ruthless than their X-Men counterparts. Kinberg, Ryan Reynolds and Lauren Shuler Donner are producing. Goddard is next directing for Fox Bad Times at the El Royale with Chris Hemsworth and Jeff Bridges, but he has already cracked the script and will roll right into X-Force when he is finished.
Reynolds’ Deadpool will for sure be the centerpiece of X-Force, and when Kinberg discussed the property publicly, he added Cable as a major component. Josh Brolin is playing the character in Deadpool 2.
Getting Goddard is a coup for the studio. He has been destined to spearhead a superhero franchise for a long time. Aside from launching the Daredevil series for Netflix, Goddard wrote to direct The Martian, but stepped aside for Ridley Scott to instead direct his script for the Spider-Man villain spinoff The Sinister Six, until that film was scrapped for the new iteration of the webslinger. Now Goddard has his franchise.

I was fortunate enough to read the current draft of the X-Force film last week, and I can tell you, it was beyond impressive!

The best part of the film is the camaraderie between the team as they learn to cope and trust one another! #xforce

There are at least 4 sequences that long time fans of X-Force, Cable and Deadpool will scream in absolute delight! #wadlownailedit

Perfectly plausible to see the X-Force and Deadool stand alone film released within 6 months to a year of one another. Great times ahead.

12th July 2013 - Film In Development
This past week or so, we’ve been “off camera,” chasing rumours that Fox are on the verge of announcing plans for their extended X-Men movie universe. We were tipped off that they will – unsurprisingly – be using their panel at Comic-Con as the launch pad.
We did know already that Brian Singer will be there in San Diego, presenting X-Men: Days Of Future Past, a film which already brings together – if indeed they were ever apart – the previous X-Men movie timelines.
We’re still not sure which titles will make up the studio’s new mutant-based movie line, though X-MenFilms.com have uncovered one domain registration that’s pretty much a smoking gun. According to the who is registration info they’ve dug up, Fox have an X-Force The Movie URL registered and ready to roll.
