Deadpool 2 Final Trailer Reactions: 8 Ups & 2 Downs

5. Cable's Got Sass

If the previous trailers had you worried that Cable might end up being a one-dimensional straight-man foil to Deadpool, fear not, because in this trailer the time-travelling mutant stabs 'Pool in the shoulder and tells him, "You're no f***ing hero. You're just a clown dressed up as a sex toy."

Damn. Hasn't Wade been burned enough already? Fingers crossed that's just one of Cable's many savage one-liners throughout the film, because one suspects Josh Brolin is a man with thoroughly untapped comic potential (Men in Black 3 aside).

This cracking line suggests the movie's not going to just make Cable a relentlessly dour semi-antagonist, and should actually have plenty of fun with him too.
