Well, he can do drama (Amores Perros), existential superhero yarns (Birdman) and my gosh he can portray brutality (The Revenant), so why not give Mexico's finest a punt in the MCU?

Mask the mirth, though, as Iñárritu could genuinely craft a great Deadpool flick; his skills at swift editing are unprecedented and, no matter whether he's framing Mexico City's grim underbelly or bright lights Broadway, he can bring a locale alive like no other in the directing game.

Quite simply, he will take on any type of project and has a pretty much unblemished record to date. Plus, he'd hardly be slumming it with a character that although known for killing and joking, can also make you second guess - look no further than Deadpool Kills The Marvel Universe for a piece of character treatment that this particular director would have a whale of a time bringing to the big screen.
