When the Deadpool sequel was looking for a Cable a lot of names were brought up. One of those names was Russell Crowe, but the overture suggesting he look at the share did not go well. Rob Liefeld recently spoke more or less the period he tweeted at Russell Crowe suggesting he admission for the part. even though the Twitter conversation had issues of its own, it turns out Liefeld got an earful from his own superintendent as with ease as some higher-ups at Fox for the move, as he'd accidentally disrespected Russell Crowe. According to Liefeld...
One night back I went to bed, I didn't know Russell Crowe was on Twitter, and I stupidly tweeted to Russell Crowe -- not ever thinking he'd reply me -- and I go 'Hey Russell, you should admission for Cable That didn't tilt out completely well, I got yelled at a lot, because I woke up, because he's in Australia, to Russell Crowe motto 'Read for it And my superintendent said 'Yeah, Russell Crowe doesn't admission for parts. Rob, you kind of disrespected him. I'm taking into account 'I'm sorry. They just haven't picked Cable nevertheless therefore I'm just putting it out there.' And after that my phone rings, therefore some Fox people may or may not have yelled at me for an hour.
The first share of this explanation we had seen because we wrote more or less the tweets that went help and forth in the company of Rob Liefeld and Russell Crowe help in February of 2017. We motto Liefeld apologize for his language at the time, realizing that suggesting Russell Crowe audition for a role was potentially insulting, but we hadn't heard more or less the get off of the story, which Liefeld revealed at the incredible Comic-Con in Las Vegas (via Collider), which included Fox executives calling Liefeld to ask him exactly what in the blue hell he thought he was doing. This is the downside of social media inborn such a public and instantaneous method of communication.
Clearly, this was just a bad marginal of phrase from a guy who, even though he's been much more functional in Hollywood in recent years, isn't exactly a high powered huge shot. If Rob Liefeld had suggested that Russell Crowe "meet taking into account Fox" more or less playing Cable, he would in reality have been motto the thesame business he tried to tell before, but without using wording that had the potential to industrial accident a guy who is known for having something of a curt temper.
We'll never know if there was any genuine potential for Russell Crowe to play a role Cable. What we complete know at this dwindling is that it doesn't in reality business because Josh Brolin was cast in the role and he knocked it out of the park. The right guy was clearly found for the part. Brolin probably didn't have to admission for it either.
