Temporary Name For Deadpool 2 Announced Amid Director Search

After the success of the first movie, it's looking like the sequel is all sorts of crazy going on.  Director Tim Miller has left the project, which seems to be over "creative differences" with Ryan Reynolds.  From what's being reported, the two had a disagreement over who should be hired on to play Cable.  This excuse seems a little hard to swallow, even if it is true.  It would seem to me that a director would want to hire an actor that would compliment the star and had a sort of chemistry with the guy, but if the rumors are accurate, this was not the case.  Miller wanted to hire Kyle Chandler for the role of Cable, while Reynolds and the rest of the creative team for the film didn't think that he was a good choice.  While this may seem like a huge blow to the film (and it kind of is) there shouldn't be too much worry for the sequel.  Like the credits said in the first movie, the real heroes of this film are the writers, and the two from the original film are writing the second one.  Which brings me to the topic of today's post, the new (and maybe temporary) title of the movie.


It was revealed that the working title for the second Deadpool movie is Love Machine.  I can't help but think of the Billy Griffin song when I see this title, but that's neither here nor there.  Working titles are used for a couple of reasons.  The first is to try and deceive fans from learning too much about the film before it's released, and the second is to use it as a placeholder for the film crew.  If this does in fact remain the title of the film, it may suggest that after winning back the heart of Vanessa, there may be a little bit of a rift between the two when Domino shows up.  We'll just have to wait to find out.


What do you think that the second movie should cover?  Any storylines from the comic books that you are wanting to see?  Let me know your thoughts in the comments section down below.
