On the heels of the announcement thathe and FX had buy the farm Marvel ’s animated Deadpool project , Glover ’s casually cast away us out a gander at what his adult - focused animated action comedy could ’ve been like . Suffice to say , lease ’s hope another mesh makes this shit pass .
Over the weekend , FX released a statement announcing they would no longer be imply with making a Deadpool animated serial , which would ’ve been the web ’s second Marvel series after Noah Hawley ’s live - action serial Legion . The show was set to be go by Glover and his blood brother , Stephen Glover , and had already been break up up for a 10 - sequence season to go on FXX . We , and a lot of others , were very excited .
While it was n’t bring up in the initial theme of the parting of ways , it seems as if someone along the agency must ’ve claimed that Glover was “ too busy ” to make the series happen , whichhe did not care for . Now , to be fairish , he is a very busy man . He ’s the creator of the honour - winning FX serial Atlanta , has a successful music career as Childish Gambino ( that hemight be retiring ) , punches upother Marvel book , and will be very busy with press forSolo : A Star Wars Story soon .
But Glover was n’t too meddling to throw up some trademark Deadpool middle fingers and twinge out a 15 - page script this first light ( which may have been “ last night ” still for him ) … which is almost certainly not a real script for the actual series , but something Glover write in reply to its cancelation . This is partially because it directly speak the series ’ cancelation , but also because the entire script is Deadpool lecture to a rhino :

The script is yell “ Finale , ” and center around Deadpool attempt to get Sudan — thelast male white rhino who died latterly — to mate . Besides itsnot - so - subtle jabsabout being “ canceled ” by FX as well asanother referenceto Sanaa Lathan prick Beyoncé . She did n’t , but that was a story making the round just yesterday so this whole affair is intelligibly something Glover threw together in response to the proclamation ( you may read the intact script here ) . The man is a living machine of excellence .
Still , the committal to writing on this pee me genuinely mad to see what a Deadpool serial publication in Glover ’s hands would have been … or might still be . Here ’s hope FX changes their minds or another web or streaming service is overbold enough to break up it up . Has someone call Freeform ?
