Deadpool’s Humor Joins the Party
One thing we all love about Deadpool is his sense of humor. But would that funny stuff fit in with the rest of the MCU?

Deadpool’s jokes are for everyone, and this superhero’s comedy enjoys a freedom that’s super rare in other superhero flicks.
Feige’s Vision: R-rated Marvel Movies
Here’s another spicy bit of news. Deadpool & Wolverine will be Marvel Studio’s first R-rated movie. That means some mature content! But don’t worry, not all future Marvel films will be R-rated. Kevin Feige cleared this up in a recent press chat. What’s most important to him is that each movie stays true to the spirit of its characters.
