While Robert Rodriguez's take on "Deadpool" could make for one very interesting comic book flick, the "Machete" director says that rumors he might direct Ryan Reynolds in the film are still nothing but rumors, even if he has read an early script for the film.
"It was really good," Rodriguez told MTV News at Comic-Con in San Diego. "It wasn't supposed to be sent out — it was one of those early drafts. They were probably like, 'Robert just finished "Predators," let's see what he thinks at this early stage' ... I got an early sneak peek at it."
