Deadpool

Deadpool fans have wanted this movie for a hell of a long time and, as a result, it should do very well.

The perfect casting of Ryan Reynolds as the Merc With a Mouth should ensure it’s a faithful adaptation of the much-loved Marvel character and his exploits.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine gave the world a decent Wade Wilson (it was Reynolds in the role that time as well, after all), but the awful depiction of “Deadpool” (which can’t be blamed on Reynolds, as it wasn’t even him portraying the silenced Frankenstein’s monster version of the character – known as “Barakapool” by disgruntled viewers) really sickened a lot of fans.

This time around, Reynolds is going to be truly unleashed on the role he was born to play. He’ll portray a smart-mouthed, cocky, somewhat insane but undoubtedly likeable Deadpool who will talk directly to the camera in the Merc With a Mouth’s classic “breaking the fourth wall” style.

With a supporting cast of characters that includes the likes of Colossus and Negasonic Teenage Warhead, this movie will certainly be interesting and – particularly assuming that Reynolds nails the titular character – it should do pretty well financially too.

Predicted worldwide gross: $775 million.
