X-Men Origins: Wolverine was a major flop for the many fans of the property. Without going into too much detail, it was an all around bad film. A lot came together to make the greatly anticipated Wolverine movie fall flat, including a slew of small mistakes including, but not limited to, glittery diamond-skin, hot cyclops beams and inconsistencies in the length and width of Wolverine’s claws. All that being said, the $315 million grossed worldwide paints a very different picture. Wolverine was a great success to anyone receiving a check.
Unsurprisingly, Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool rose above everything else to make the first fifteen minutes of the film watchable. He was a bad-ass, smart-ass killer-for-hire and he sold Deadpool like no one else could. Considering the “commercial success” of Wolverine, plans for a Deadpool movie still exist. Hitflix asked Ryan Reynolds himself how the movie was coming and he responded with good news for Reynolds-Deadpool fans everywhere:
“Well, I’m intimately involved with it. We’re just trying to break a story right now and figure out who the villain is going to be and all that stuff. But, it’s going to be just like the comic books. I’m gonna have a messed up face and you may see some flashbacks of Wade earlier in his life, but primarily what you see is what you get in the comics and that’s the goal. And there is no better place to draw material from then the comics which are incredible” says Reynolds.
For those that have actually seen Wolverine, “messed up face” has nothing to do with the way that movie ended. Just something to keep in mind.
