mutant from the time-traveling soldier Cable.
Plans for a sequel to Deadpool began before the original film's release, and were confirmed in
February 2016. Though the original creative team of Reynolds, Reese, Wernick, and director Tim
Miller were quickly set to return for the second film, Miller left the project in October 2016 due to
creative differences with Reynolds and was soon replaced by Leitch. An extensive casting search
took place to fill the role of Cable, with Brolin ultimately cast. Filming took place in British
Columbia from June to October 2017. The film is dedicated to stuntwoman Joi "SJ" Harris, who died
in a motorcycle accident during filming.

R-rated film. The film received positive reviews from critics, who praised its humor, cast
performances, story and action sequences but criticized its tone and script. A PG-13-rated version of
the film, titled Once Upon a Deadpool, was released on December 12, 2018 to mixed reviews.

Deadpool is a 2016 American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character of the same
name. Distributed by 20th Century Fox, it is the eighth film in the X-Men film series. Directed by Tim
Miller from a screenplay by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, it stars Ryan Reynolds in the title role
alongside Morena Baccarin, Ed Skrein, T. J. Miller, Gina Carano, and Brianna Hildebrand. In the
film, Wade Wilson hunts the man who gave him mutant abilities and a scarred physical appearance,
becoming the beloved antihero Deadpool.
Development of a Deadpool film starring Reynolds began in February 2004, before he went on to
play the character in X-Men Origins: Wolverine in 2009. Reese and Wernick were hired for a spinoff
in 2010. They worked with Reynolds to adapt the character more faithfully (including his fourth
wall breaking) after the portrayal in Wolverine was criticized for not doing so. Miller was hired in
2011, marking his directorial debut. An enthusiastic response to leaked test footage he created with
Reynolds led to a green-light from Fox in 2014. Additional casting began in early 2015, and filming
took place in Vancouver, British Columbia, from March to May of that year. Several vendors
provided visual effects for the film, ranging from the addition of blood and gore to the creation of
the CG character Colossus.
Deadpool was released in the United States on February 12, 2016, after an unconventional
marketing campaign. The film achieved both financial and critical success. It earned over
$782 million against a $58 million budget, becoming the ninth-highest-grossing film of 2016 and
breaking numerous records, including highest-grossing X-Men film and R-rated film at the time.
Critics praised Reynolds' performance, the film's style and faithfulness to the comics, along with its
action sequences, though some criticized the plot as formulaic and were divided on the film's adult
humor. It received many awards and nominations, including two Critics' Choice Awards and
two Golden Globe nominations. A sequel, Deadpool 2, was released in 2018. Following
the acquisition of 21st Century Fox by Disney, a third film is in development at Marvel Studios.
