''Deadpool'' is one of the most awaited movies of the year 2016. It will be distributed by 20th Century Fox and will be released on Feb. 12, 2016 in theatres across the US.
''Deadpool'' is an upcoming American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character. Marvel is known for entertaining its audience with various games and movies. The real name of Deadpool is Wade Winston Wilson and this character first appeared in ''The New Mutants #98'' cover-dated Feb. 1991. Watch the trailer on YouTube.
This fictional character is created by writer Fabian Nicieza and artist/writer Rob Liefeld. This movie is intended to be the eighth instalment in the ''X-Men'' film series.
Simon Kinberg, Lauren Shuler Donner and Ryan Reynolds have produced this "supervillain-antihero" movie. In the comics, ''Deadpool'' was initially depicted as a supervillain when he made his first appearance in ''The New Mutants.'' In the later issues of ''X-Force,'' he is shown to have evolved into the role of an anti-hero.
The plot revolves around Wade Wilson who was subjected to an experiment that leaves him with accelerated healing powers, disfigured skin, an unstable mind, and a "dark, twisted" sense of humor. This experiment was done in an effort to cure his cancer.
