As Josh Brolin’s muscular Cable prepares to butt heads with the sass-mouthed Deadpool in Deadpool 2, Ryan Reynolds is celebrating his costar’s 50th birthday in true Wade Wilson style. The great casting race to see who could be playing the time-traveling Cable was one of the hottest in Hollywood. However, beating the likes of Brad Pitt, Stephen Lang, and Michael Shannon, Brolin is the one sticking on a mechanical arm to suit up for David Leitch’s sequel. With the likes of Leitch himself praising Brolin’s performance as Cable, his arrival on our screens is one of the most anticipated comic book movie roles in recent memory.
