Robert Rodriguez

The rumour mill has been churning possible candidates to lead Marvel’s upcoming Deadpool production, well now Robert Rodriguez has reached advanced talks with the studio according to LA Times.

So what has been said?

“After a few weeks of dancing, Rodriguez and studio Fox are negotiating. There's no deal yet, and the sides need to agree on a number of key points, but it's moved beyond the casual discussion stage and into the more substantive realm of deal points.”

However, there is a small matter of Spy Kids 4: Armageddon; or what surely must be ImAGettin’ a ton of cash. Then there is FOX and Rodriguez’s role in Predators, has there been a Predator / Alien franchise film since Aliens or Predator 2 that has been received so well? We are talking two decades of miss hitters and a sequel will be prized out of Rodriguez without a doubt.
