Kevin Feige: Deadpool & Wolverine Is The ‘Most Wholesome R-Rated Film That Anybody Can Ever See’

Kevin Feige says that Deadpool & Wolverine is the “most wholesome R-rated movie anybody could ever see.”

Deadpool & Wolverine releases in United States theaters on July 26. The R-rated MCU movie stars Ryan Reynolds as Wade Wilson/Deadpool, Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, Emma Corrin as Cassandra Nova, and more.

Speaking with Deadline, Marvel’s Kevin Feige was asked if Deadpool & Wolverine was the “beginning of an edgier era” for the MCU.

“I think we’ve been edgy in the past, but my favorite thing is that we span all types of genres and tones,” Feige answered. “I think it gets a lot of attention that this is our first R-rated movie, but it is the third R-rated Deadpool movie, so we wanted to stay true to what Ryan has built over those last couple of movies and we weren’t going to undo that. I will say, Hugh and Ryan have talked about this, and I think people can tell from the trailer and from the press tour so far, yes, it’s R-rated, yes there’s some language and blood, but the film is incredibly emotional. I keep calling it the most wholesome R-rated film that anybody can ever see. It really is a celebration of friendship and family and of found family. I don’t want to overdo it, but for all the R-rated raunchiness that gets attention, when people see the movie, it’s going to be about how heartfelt it is; in my opinion much more than the first two Deadpool films. That’s what I’m really excited about, once people get past the ‘F’ words and the R-rating, to see how sweet it is.”

Directed by Shawn Levy, Marvel Studios‘ Deadpool & Wolverine also stars Matthew Macfadyen as Paradox, Morena Baccarin as Vanessa, Rob Delaney as Peter, Leslie Uggams as Blind Al, Karan Soni as Dopinder, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Stefan Kapičić as Colossus, Shioli Kutsuna as Yukio, Aaron Standford as Pyro, and Tyler Mane as Sabretooth.
