Watch ‘Deadpool’s’ First Trailer Here – Hilarious And Foul-Mouthed Ryan Reynolds Will Blow Your Mind
Deadpool has finally been unleashed to the world.
Yes, the time has come when we can see the wisecracking, unfettered superhero from the Marvel cinematic universe lead the line on his own. In a bloody, colorful and hilarious trailer Fox released in the early hours of Wednesday morning, Ryan Reynolds is seen leaving behind his chocolate-boy persona to become a psychopathic, unrelenting killing machine who just cannot stop joking.
Apart from starring Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool, the Tim Miller-directed movie also introduces Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead – who, as Deadpool notes in the trailer, has a great name – as well as T.J. Miller as Weasal, Morena Baccarin as Vanessa, and Leslike Uggam as Blind Al, Deadpool’s housekeeper, comrade-in-arms, and a ubiquitously grumpy sounding board.
Considering the bloody, expletive-ridden spectacle on offer, it is no wonder that Deadpool is the first R-rated superhero movie ever. Watch the hilarious trailer here.
Still six months away from the release of the actual movie (your ideal date on Valentine’s?), this Deadpool trailer gives fans a lot to be hopeful about. Ryan Reynolds fulfills his long-cherished dream of playing the foul-mouthed character on his own terms. Having already played a sanitized version of the character in 2009’s X-Men: Wolverine, Reynolds has always believed Deadpool has far too much charm not to be awarded with his own feature film, and here he goes full-throttle at his audience – violent and bloody ludicrous at the same time!
Speaking to Entertainment Weekly earlier, Reynolds had confessed that Deadpool offers a morally-flexible superhero that perhaps no other superhero-film could boast of.
“I was driving around New York recently and I saw three or four different people wearing Deadpool paraphernalia. And I just thought that was crazy considering that this is a character that’s never had a feature film and yet still is in the zeitgeist in that way. It was just that flash of red, and my eyes went to it. I know it’s a risk, but I trust that audiences will see that red and want to snatch it up. I mean, who doesn’t love a morally flexible red-suited freak show?”
So what do you think of Deadpool‘s first trailer? Has it met your expectations? Or have Tim Miller and the team taken it too far? Comment below with your responses.
