The habit gets a new name.
Ryan Reynolds is backtracking on his previous statements about Deadpool. First, he said the character wouldn’t be in another solo movie, then he said he wouldn’t center him again. Now, he’s confirming another Deadpool movie is in the works. Apparently, $1.338 billion is a good reason to change your mind.
Reynolds wants to explore “deep cuts” from the comics, because that’s what you do when you’re trying to revive a franchise. He also thinks Deadpool works well as an outsider, which is code for “we don’t know how to integrate him into the Avengers.”
Deadpool’s coping mechanism is to deflect shame through humor, which is just a nice way of saying he’s a sarcastic jerk.
And now, there’s another reason to keep an eye on San Diego Comic-Con, because Reynolds might announce something else that will contradict his previous statements.
