Fans have set up their own petition to get Quentin Tarantino on board to direct "Deadpool 2" after Tim Miller left the project.
The petition that was launched just two days ago already has more than 1,700 signatures, said The Hollywood Reporter.
The move comes after "Deadpool" director Miller exited the sequel following alleged creative differences with star Ryan Reynolds.
"If there was ever a chance to see Tarantino do a project almost guaranteed to make a billion dollars, this is it. We got a great taste of what this could be like in 'Kill Bill,' but imagine having a guy like Tarantino write dialogue for 'The Merc with the Mouth'! It would be so glorious. Join me!" writes Carl Champion Jr, who started the petition.
Later, Champion posted an update, saying that Tarantino is the best choice due to his genre-bending abilities and snappy dialogue writing skills.
The movie is still scheduled for January 12, 2018.
