10 years ago there seemed to be little chance of a Deadpool movie actually happening, much less a sequel.
Deadpool says he would never have believed 10 years ago that three would be a “two movie universe” at this point, and as funny as the comment is, it’s probably entirely true.
The clip even makes reference to the leaked test footage, which went viral on the internet, leading to such a groundswell of support that Fox was forced to take another look at the project, and eventually let it happen.
To be fair, it has taken a decade for Deadpool to get two movies out into the world, but that’s mostly due to the false start that was X-Men: Origins – Wolverine and the fact that the studio refused to greenlight a standalone movie for so long.
