'X-Men' Spinoff 'Deadpool' Gets Winter 2016 Release Date

At the the same time, Fox takes 'Assassin's Creed' off the summer 2015 calendar, while shifting 'The Fantastic Four' and 'Paper Towns'



Twentieth Century Fox and Marvel Comics are moving ahead with their long-gestating X-Men spinoff Deadpool.


On Thursday, the studio announced that the movie will hit theaters Feb. 12, 2016. Tim Miller is set to direct the film, with Ryan Reynolds long rumored to star, although no deal is set. (Bets are that he will.)

The beloved Marvel character Deadpool, aka Wade Wilson, is a talkative mercenary with a host of powers, including the ability to heal rapidly. Reynolds played Wilson in 2009's X-Men Origins: Wolverine, while Scott Adkins played the character of Deadpool after Wilson had transformed.



News of Deadpool's release comes weeks after test footage of the project leaked briefly online. The sequence, featuring Reynolds, was shot several years ago, but nevertheless sparked intense conversation on social media.

In a recent interview, Reynolds commented on the leak, suggesting it helped move the process along. "The movie has been in a state of limbo for a while. There was such an overpowering reaction to the footage, you sort of feel like, 'Oh, so we weren't crazy for our reasons for loving this character, for loving this role.' It's interesting to see the power of the Internet. It's awe-inspiring, actually," the actor told the Niagara Falls Review. "And it's neat that Twitter and Facebook and Instagram can move mountains when used in the right way."

Reynolds, whose turn as the superhero Green Lantern failed at the box office, has been linked to a potential Deadpool solo movie for years, even before he debuted as the character in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. His interest in the property dates back to 2003.

In announcing the Deadpool news, Fox also made other key changes to its release slate, including taking New Regency's Assassin's Creed off the 2015 summer calendar.

The adaptation of the Ubisoft video game, starring Michael Fassbender, was set to open Aug. 7 but won't be ready in time, according to insiders. The script has gone through several rewrites, while the production itself has grappled with scheduling issues. Fox insiders say Assassin's Creed will now hit theaters in 2016.

As a result, Josh Trank's Fantastic Four reboot will move from June 19, 2015, to the Aug. 7 spot, while YA film adaptation Paper Towns — based on the book by John Green — will move up from July 31, 2015, to June 19, the same corridor Fox used to release YA blockbuster The Fault in Our Stars, also based on a Green novel.

Fox is taking a cue from Disney and Marvel in relocating Fantastic Four to August, where Guardians of the Galaxy prospered this summer. For years, August was considered a dumping ground. If anything, Guardians proved that August has the benefit of being less crowded when it comes to tentpoles

Dude.
Listen, linda.


Listen.




If they do this movie right, it is going to be unbelievably awesome.

If this is as good as Green Lantern and R.I.P.D., I'm so there.

[ashtaron14]

I took the $0.99 offer from Marvel Unlimited a month before Guardians of the Galaxy came out, and after I read all of the GOTG comics, read all of the Deadpool comics.

It would be so hard to decide which villain to pick for the movie (Mr. Sinister?), since everyone seems to be involved.

Things I would want to see
- Bob
- Death
- Him trying to kill himself
- Blowing up random things
- Eating

Some rumors so far:

CHARACTERS:

Squirrel Girl will make an appearance.

Daniel Cudmore will reprise his role as Colossus in the film.

Peter Outerbridge has a role in the film as Ajax/Francis.

Apocalypse will have a major role in the film.

Cable could have a role.

CASTING:

Seth Green, Justin Long, Jay Baruchel and Justin Bartha are rumored to portray Weasel.

CONFIRMED: Ryan Reynolds is still slated to play Deadpool and other actors are not being considered.

Jamie Chung revealed to Comic Book Resources in a intreview that she does has an interested in portraying Psylocke in a future X-Men film.

STORY:

Deadpool will break the fourth wall.

This film will be the first piece in the jigsaw puzzle that will set up the X-Force movie.

This film will take place in the new X-Men timeline.

PRODUCTION:

Deadpool's creator Rob Liefeld had posted a list of directors to direct the film which are The Wachowskis, Joe Carnahan, Genndy Tartakovsky and Sylvester Stallone.

Fox are looking for comedy directors to direct the film.

The film will be a comedy and get a 'R' rating due to gore.

Due to the Studio's focus on The Wolverine and X-Men: Days of Future Past, and Ryan Reynolds being really busy, the film not might start shooting until 2014 and might not be released until 2015.


This might be Fox's next big project for the X-Men series.

The film will get a 2016 release date.

It is scheduled to be released on February 12, 2016.

The film will be R-Rated if it has a lower budget, and PG-13 if it has a higher budget; this decision is the currently delay in green lighting the film.

The rating has yet to be determined.

The film will be PG-13, but a hard PG-13.
