| Lauren Shuler Donner Talks Exclusively to IESB About Deadpool, X-Men, Marvel/Pixar and More! | ||||

 IESB's Robert Sanchez attended a DVD presentation on the Fox lot for WOLVERINE on Thursday where he spoke exclusively with one of it's producers Lauren Shuler Donner.
Donner has quite a full plate in the coming years that includes Deadpool, X-Men First Class, Wolverine 2 and many more! Sanchez had several key questions he wanted to ask Donner about those films including Ryan Reynolds dual Green Lantern/Deadpool casting. Also, if there was any possibility to an animated X-Men film made by Pixar now that Marvel and Walt Disney have merged and if Bryan Singer is out of the X-Men mix completely not that he's got Excalibur and Battlestar Galactica in his future. See what she had to say below, IESB: With Ryan Reynolds now as Green Lantern, will that effect Deadpool at all? LSD: I hope not. Not on my end, personally, not on my end, no. I think you can do different characters. We've had different Bonds right, and I think if Harrison Ford can be in Indiana Jones and he can be in the Tom Clancy movies, I think if you are a good actor you become the character and it's alright. IESB: The X-Men First Class, is it a mild reboot? Are we going to see different actors in the same characters? LSD: I'll be able to tell you that in time. IESB: With the Marvel deal, Marvel/Disney deal, there's been some talk that Marvel wants to do Pixar stuff, is there anything that limits them from doing an X-Men animated Pixar film? LSD: I don't know, but I don't believe so. I believe everything X-Men related belongs to Fox. IESB: Even animated if it's theatrical right? LSD: I would imagine yes, it's Fox. I would imagine they can't go do a X-Men film. IESB: Was it as big of a shock to you as it was to everyone else? LSD: Yes it was, it was a big shock, you know, and they are very good at keeping quiet. IESB: The next Wolverine, any chance Gavin [Hood] is coming back? LSD: Don't know, we are working on the script now. IESB: The last time we talked you mentioned you would love to bring Bryan [Singer] back. LSD: I would. IESB: Any chance? LSD: There's a possibility. IESB: He's not too busy with Excalibur and Battlestar Galactica? LSD: No. IESB: How soon before you go into production on any of the new X-Men films? Whether it be Wolverine or X-Men First Class or Deadpool? LSD: Next year. IESB: For which one? LSD: (laughter) I can't say, I'm sorry. But, some of these we just aren't ready to talk about yet. IESB: Dick [Donner], does he still not want to touch any superhero film? LSD: He kind of feels like he did, he was very helpful, as you know he came and helped me on this movie but, look, I would never rule anything out but I don't know. He might, he might go back into the comic world, he might. IESB: Anything that you have in the X-Men world? LSD: I wish, (laughter) I wish. X-MEN ORIGINS WOLVERINE comes out on Blu-ray and DVD on September 15th.
