Following last week’s expletive-filled new trailer, moreDeadpoolimages have made their way online. For those who don’t know, the film starsRyan Reynoldsas Wade Wilson, a cancer-stricken soldier who agrees to undergo an experimental treatment that will save his life; however, when it leaves him horribly scarred and without his beloved wife, he breaks out his guns, swords, and sense of humor to get revenge on the bad guys behind the procedure.
NowEmpirehas released more images from the film, and while there’s nothing too mind-blowing, it does give us a first look at Negasonic Teenage Warhead (Brianna Hildebrand) in a New Mutants costume. The latest red-band trailer mentioned “X-Men bullshit,” and I’m wondering how much of the PG-13 franchise will get name-dropped into the very R-ratedDeadpool. Additionally, Fox is trying to set up aNew Mutantsmovie fromThe Fault in Our StarsdirectorJosh Boone, butwhen we spoke to producerSimon Kinberglast month, he said they were still working on the first draft. Could Negasonic Teenage Warhead be the bridge betweenDeadpoolandNew Mutantsor will they work to keep the franchises separate and verify Deadpool’s R-rated antics don’t touch anything that could reach a more lucrative PG-13 market?
Check out the newDeadpoolimages below. The film also starsMorena Baccarinas Vanessa Carlysle/Copycat,Stefan Kapicicas Colossus,T.J. Milleras Weasel, andGina Caranoas Angel Dust.Deadpoolopens February 12th.
