Now, we’ve learned a bit more about how Deadpool came to the screen- it turns out two A-list directors, James Cameron and David Fincher, helped shepherd the movie towards a green light.
And besides, the filmmakers have discussed Cameron and Fincher’s involvement before. That isn’t to say that a superhero movie directed by James Cameron or David Fincher wouldn’t be worth seeing.
Not really; directors, like most successful people, tend to have mentors, and it’s not like Cameron or Fincher directed the film over Miller’s shoulder or anything.
David was a help before Jim and he was just kind of nudging along the way.
