Deadpool is a 2016 American superhero film directed by Tim Miller and written by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name. It is the eighth installment in the X-Men film series, and stars Ryan Reynolds as the title character, as well as Morena Baccarin, Ed Skrein, T.J. Miller, Gina Carano, Leslie Uggams, Brianna Hildebrand, and Stefan Kapičić. In the film, antihero Deadpool hunts the man who nearly destroyed his life while also trying to reunite with his lost love.
Development began in February 2004 with New Line Cinema, but moved in March 2005 to 20th Century Fox who bought the film rights. In May 2009, after Reynolds portrayed the character in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, to the general disappointment of fans, Fox lent the film to writers, and Miller was hired for his directorial debut in April 2011. Enthusiastic acclaim for leaked CGI test footage by Miller in July 2014 led to Fox greenlighting the film in September. Additional casting began in early 2015, and principal photography commenced in Vancouver from March to May.
Deadpool premiered in Paris on February 8, 2016, and was released on February 12 in the United States in IMAX, DLP, D-Box, and premium large format. Critics praised Reynolds' performance as well as the film's style, faithful depiction of the titular character, and action sequences, but criticized its plot as formulaic. It received various awards and nominations, including two Golden Globe Award nominations for Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy and Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy, and a Producers Guild of America Award nomination for Best Theatrical Motion Picture. It also won two Critics' Choice Movie Awards for Best Comedy and Best Actor in a Comedy.
