Fox is betting that audiences will not get a load of _Deadpool_ when the movie opens this weekend but will immediately want more, which is why the studio is already working on a sequel.

Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, who wrote _Deadpool_, are writing the script for a follow-up, which has already been greenlighted, insiders tell _The Hollywood Reporter_.

The fact that a sequel is in the works should not be a surprise at this point. _Deadpool_ is tracking to open to at least $65 million over the upcoming four-day holiday weekend, with some estimates pointing north of $70 million.

Tim Miller directed _Deadpool_ and although is he has not signed on to helm the sequel, Fox is intent on keeping the creative team together.

Reese, Wernick and Miller, as well as star Ryan Reynolds, have fought an uphill battle within the studio system to get the movie made, forging themselves into a compact unit. Wernick and Reese, who also acted as executive producers on the movie, remained on board throughout the development and production, a rarity in a system that interchanges scribes at high rates.

_Deadpool_ is an R-rated action comedy based on an irreverent Marvel Comics character who is part of the universe of _X-Men_ heroes, to which Fox has the license.


Reese and Wernick’s other credits include _Zombieland_ and _G.I. Joe: Retaliation_. The duo is repped by WME and Hansen Jacobson.

## Transcript

Twentieth Century Foxes Deadpool trailer is officially here. And the mark with the mouth definitely does not disappoint. [ SOUND ] And please don't make the super suit green. We're animated. Reynolds obvious nod to his Green Lantern box office failure is just the first of several inappropriate jokes in the up coming R rated film. And both the rating and the jokes signify a new age, so to speak, of Marvel comic based movies. When Deadpool lands in theaters, it won't be a watered down version of the comic book equivalent. The movie will include the sex, swearing, and gratuitous violence the fans of the book so expect.

I'm touching myself tonight. The raunchy humor in this latest super- hero trailer and the wide praise it has received from fans is a shift from past attempts to bring humor to comic book movie first looks, like in Guardians of the Galaxy. In Guardians of the Galaxy, Chris Pratt's character Star Lord gives the audience the finger in the trailer, but it's blurred out. Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know how this machine worked. If the foul- mouthed Deadpool trailer is any indication of what to expect, Fox might score big with the upcoming flick, despite the R rating. It's an absolute miracle that a studio let us make Deadpool, let alone a rated R Deadpool.

Fox seems to have full confidence in its modern day version of the anti heroes within the Marvel universe. Like Deadpool, Channing Tatum's upcoming Gambit flick, hopes audiences will fall in love with heroes that aren't quite white knights.
