Shawn Levy Hopes DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE Suprises You And Breaks New Ground

Some people say the Marvel Cinematic Universe needs saving, while others say it doesn’t. One thing is clear, Marvel Studios has received more criticsm than typical during the developing Multiverse Saga. Many fans are looking towards the R-rated Deadpool & Wolverine as a bolt of energy Marvel Studios needs to reinvigorate the audience.

Speaking with Total Film, director Shawn Levy explained how his film is unlike any MCU movie.

“We had no idea it would be this unique moment where people are asking what the MCU means any more,” he started. “Can it surprise us? Can it break molds in ways that we don’t expect? We certainly hope that this movie is an answer to those questions.”

“What Kevin Feige has built with the MCU is historic as far as a string of successes, but culture has its tide chart, culture has ebbs and flows, and one thing we do know is you can’t keep doing the same thing ad nauseum and expect people to greet it with the same excitement,” he explained. “And so it just worked out really fortuitously because our movie is not like any MCU movie. Yeah, and I say that as a fan of a lot of MCU movies.”
