Cable, whose real name is Nathan Summers, worked alongside Deadpool in many of the comics. We even got to see a bit of a tease for the character's appearance in the "Deadpool" scene that aired before "Logan" in the theaters. There was a message on a phone booth that read "Nathan Summers cumming soon!"
Zazie Beetz was recently cast in the film to play mutant mercenary Domino.
"Deadpool" opened on Valentine's Day to $782.6 million worldwide, making it Fox's biggest hit of 2016, as well as the highest-grossing R-rated film in history.
Aside from "Man of Steel", Shannon has starred in "Mud," "Take Shelter," "Frank & Lola," "Machine Gun Preacher," and "The Iceman", and earned two Academy Award nominations for best supporting actor for "Revolutionary Road" and "Nocturnal Animals."
"Deadpool 2" is slated for a March 2, 2018 release.
