‘Deadpool’ with Ryan Reynolds to be ‘Hard R’ Film
LOS ANGELES, July 2 2015 – (UPI) – “Deadpool” fans should expect the upcoming Marvel film starring Ryan Reynolds to push boundaries.
Producer Simon Kinberg and director Tim Miller discussed the movie in an interview with Entertainment Weekly. “Deadpool” will reportedly embrace the comic’s violent and obscene content, and was confirmed to have an ‘R’ rating in April.
“Deadpool” is a hard R,” Kinberg, who wrote and produced “X-Men: Days of Future Past,” revealed. “It’s graphic. Nothing is taboo. You either commit to a truly outrageous boundary-pushing kind of movie or you don’t.”
“I felt “Fight Club” and Tyler Durden were good colloraries,” Miller, who will make his feature-length directorial debut with the film, added. “We are in strip clubs and dive bars and crappy apartments and far away from the shiny “X-Men” world.”
Reynolds previously portrayed the character in” X-Men Origins: Wolverine” (2009). Wade Wilson, aka “Deadpool,” is an irreverent and unstable mercenary who possesses accelerated healing powers, ambiguous morals and a propensity to break the fourth wall.
