USA Today compiled a list of “movies you absolutely must see this Summer” and the Ryan Reynolds-led DEADPOOL 2 is not surprisingly included in the mix.
Director David Leitch opened up about the introduction of X-FORCE, a tough team of mutants that hold a different mission from Professor Charles Xavier’s X-Men.
“Building a team in the classic style of all action movies, there’s great opportunity for conflict,” Leitch says about how Deadpool doesn’t always play well with others. “But it’s not because he doesn’t want to. Maybe his fun, never-stop-talking personality is a little grating and people get tired of him. It’s not for lack of his good heart. At the end of the day, he wants to be a better person and do the right thing, and sometimes his thinking is flawed, like all of us.”
The introduction of the team in DP2 will lead into a full-fledged spin-off film, which is currently in development at 20th Century Fox.
Deadpool 2 arrives in theaters on May 18.
