DEADPOOL MOVIE

Movie: Deadpool

Date: February 12th, 2016

Character: Wade Wilson aka Deadpool, is a talkative mercenary with a host of powers, including the ability to heal rapidly.

Actor: Ryan Reynolds (?)

Director: Tim Miller

Producer: Kevin Feige

A Deadpool film has been in the works for quite some time, having begun development almost immediately after Wolverine’s first solo adventure. It has a script which, by all accounts, is not only true to the character as depicted in Marvel Comics (breaking the fourth wall and all), but is actually wonderfully entertaining and action-packed. It was penned by Zombieland writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick.

Some time ago Tim Miller was attached to direct with Ryan Reynolds (of course) attached as the lead, but development went nowhere. We even heard word of test footage made to pitch the feature to Fox’s decision-makers, footage that Deadpool creator Rob Liefeld described in detail during convention appearances, and praised. That footage just so happened to conveniently leak online in July, on the last day of San Diego Comic-Con, and became one of the most exciting bits of news coming that week, even though it wasn’t part of the convention.

In a recent interview, Reynolds commented on the leak, suggesting it helped move the process along. "The movie has been in a state of limbo for a while. There was such an overpowering reaction to the footage, you sort of feel like, 'Oh, so we weren't crazy for our reasons for loving this character, for loving this role.' It's interesting to see the power of the Internet. It's awe-inspiring, actually," the actor told the Niagara Falls Review. "And it's neat that Twitter and Facebook and Instagram can move mountains when used in the right way."
