Deadpool is getting a sequel
The short version is that it's a deleriously entertaining dervish of a film, and one that's going to pick up plenty of fans on its theatrical release and even more on home video where there will be more cursing and off the wall jokes. Early projections are suggesting it could also have a major opening weekend at the box office, with an estimate of $65 million in the States alone on the back of an energetic and inventive marketing campaign.
That's good news for fans of fun but we're also hearing that's it has been enough to officially green light a sequel. Word from insiders, via The Hollywood Reporter, is that the film is a go, with screenwriters Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick already back typing. Director Tim Miller and star Ryan Reynolds aren't officially back on board yet but with their passion for the project it's pretty much a sure thing that they'll be back.
