There are only a few weeks left until the Merc with a Mouth lands for the first time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe with Deadpool and Wolverine. The film, directed by Shawn Levy, will be the company's only production in 2024, and Ryan Reynolds will position himself as one of Marvel's most beloved actors. However, it seems that he was not sure about his arrival at the House of Ideas.
In an interview with the American media Entertainment Weekly, published a few hours ago, Reynolds acknowledged that he had quite a few doubts about whether Deadpool It would fit into a world as “Family Friendly” as that of Marvel Studios, which until then had not had a project focused on adults.
“I didn't know if I would play Deadpool again. It's not something I've necessarily said publicly, but I didn't know how a character like that would fit into the Marvel Cinematic Universe.”
It was only natural that Reynolds had doubts about joining Marvel. The actor feared that a studio so focused on family audiences would change the focus of a character who, in essence, has been anything but polite and politically correct. Luckily, Disney chose not to change his character. Deadpool And, adding Hugh Jackman to the cast, the decision was more than correct.
Now, after several years of filming, scripts and strikes, we will finally be able to enjoy a film that aims to break records inside and outside Marvel. Everything points to it being the most successful adult film in the industry along with Joker. Deadpool and Wolverine will hit theaters around the world on July 25, 2024.
