Here it is, the trailer of the movie Matthew Vaughn claims will “save the whole Marvel universe.” “Deadpool And Wolverine” aka “Deadpool 3”, starring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman.
Based on the “buzz”, I have no doubt that Shawn Levy’s “Deadpool And Wolverine” will be a box office success, and this was the most anticipated trailer to premiere at the Super Bowl, but I am also not convinced that it’s going to be a good movie.
Succeeding directors Tim Miller and David Leitch, Levy is helming this third ‘Deadpool’ movie. He’s the stalwart filmmaker behind “Big Fat Liar,” “Just Married,” “Cheaper by the Dozen,” “The Internship,” “Real Steal,” the “Pink Panther” reboot and those “Night at the Museum” movies. Not a single good movie out of the bunch.
The first two ‘Deadpool’ movies each grossed around $780 million worldwide. The franchise has only grown in popularity on home media and the notion that this third one could cross the billion dollar mark is not a stretch — it’s also set to become the first R-rated instalment of the MCU.
Marvel is trying wipe out the stink of their last flop, “The Marvels,” and will be banking hard on “Deadpool And Wolverine,” which is set to be the only MCU movie released this year.
It’s an R-rated buddy comedy. As the new teaser suggests, it’s also a road trip movie. There’s a lot of annoying meta-ness going on here. “Deadpool And Wolverine,” the second to last movie in the MCU’s Phase 5, is scheduled for a July 26, 2024
