Pretty cool, huh? Well, don’t get your hopes up. This poster, photographed in the wilds of Manhattan by a CHUD reader, is a phony. I mean, it exists, but it’s not for a real Deadpool movie. There are a number of ways to tell. One is that the poster doesn’t have the Fox logo anywhere. Second is that it’s rated R despite there not being a frame of film shot. And the third is that it’s pretty unlikely that Deadpool comes out in 2011.
There have been rumbles of ‘secret announcements’ at Marvel’s Comic Con panel this year (I’ve heard some detailed rumors, which are interesting. They’re not solid enough for me to report), but Deadpool in 2011 won’t be one of them.
The poster comes from a firm called Fine Line Kreative, who has actually done a whole bunch of fake Marvel posters. And whose real work seems to be ads for local bars.

"interesting rumors", hm. someone should open secret twitter accounts and start talking about those!
Why do fanboys love characters like Deadpool and Wolverine? Did they get beat up so much in high school that they look to violent "heroes" like these in order to find vicarious release? This is why a Superman film will not find an audience with these geeks. Superman's not "badass" enough.
Comment #2—…has apparently never read an issue of Deadpool in his life. Deadpool's one of the best comedy comic characters ever, and usually, if he does anything truly badass or heroic, it's almost always accidental or it involves him getting his ass kicked in incredibly horrible fashion first. He's Wile E. Coyote. Why do fanboy bashers like to bash on things that they have no fucking clue about? Did THEY get beat up so much in high school that blah, blah, blah, etc, etc, etc, Superman something something…
LOL @ Comment #3
Superman's cool n' all, but he's a bit too free with the hugging and the "I BELIEVE in you!" stuff. He means well, and he's a super nice guy, but y'know …"eh". He's not someone you want to have a drink with.
Wolverine is an interesting character because He is flawed. Even without the whole mutant And claw thing, he is still flawed. Always struggling with himself, with the animal in him, in all of us. He is not perfect, but he tries to do right, even if the right thing that needs to be done isn't the right thing to do.
Superman is boring because he is too perfect. Man of steel, X-ray vision, flight, speed, damn near unbeatable. The only thing he lacks is super smarts. Which is why lex is the perect foil. THe brain and no moral hang ups. Unfortunalty people expect a wham bam action packed movie, when the real conflict is his trying to fit in and adapt to these humans who are weaker than he is. Superman isn't a superhero he is a god Olympus, playing with mortals.
Superman won't find an audience because Superman is a shit superhero. He has a traumatic backstory, an interesting origin, a spin on the whole alter ego thing, etc. and he's STILL SuperBoring. OMG will he get out of this ? Of course he will, he's the embodiment of that kid u didn't like to play with because he insisted he had the power to have any power he wanted.
Agreed, Charlie Chud. However, I would totally have drinks with Booster Gold!
I hope it ends up being a crossover between Wolverine, Venom, Spawn, Deadpool, Bloodkill, Stabnight, and Blast Hardcheese. And that it's rated R.
And 3 is wrong. Deadpool is not funny. It is the nerdiest of giggly nerd humor.
Superman – he's a fairy, I do suppose, flyin' 'round town in pantyhose. He might be fairly sexy or even cute, but he looks like a sucka' in a blue and red suit.
Exactly what he said. Cosigned @ Comment #3 (Posted by PlanBFromOuterSpace). Deadpool is always interesting, and his interaction with other characters is the best. Blind Al & Weasel need to be in this movie.
#3, You gave me my morning laugh, thanks!
Comment#2: Because Deadpool is easily one of the funniest characters in The Marvel Universe (when done right). My analogy to friends is "Ferris Bueller off his meds with a ton of automatic weapons". He's also, in many ways, a spoof of the type of comic character that you seem to take issue with. Anybody who takes Deadpool seriously is missing the point.
You might want to actually read a couple of the trade paperbacks… you know,instead of taking others to task for the shit they like.
Ingenious self-promotion by Fine Line. Guaranteed to get their site lots of hits. Shame all of their other work is pretty bad.
Oh the ways I can go through the greatness of Deadpool. As much as I want a Deadpool movie, and at the same time, don't want it to happen either.
Marvel has a tendency to whore out any character that make a quick buck with toys and other useless shit, and a nightmare scenario for me, would be seeing Deadpool breakfast cereals or underoos being sold at Wal-mart, that's a future I don't want to wake up to.
um guys I AM NOT A MUTANT
Secret rumors? David Tennant as Bruce Banner
Hahha number 3 that was cool lol…. Your alright and badass to stand up for wolverine and deadpool…. I just got deadpool tatted on me for life =) and as for this goes for number 2 and any other fanbashers and nerd basher…. FUCK YOU ALLL how funny everybody says nerds and all that shit and never actually picked up a comic…. SO all you fuckin judgmental pricks can suck all and get aids……. LONG LIVE DEADPOOL
A lot of people underestimate Deadpool. He gets his butt kicked sometimes, but that just humanizes the character and makes those badass moments all the more awesome.
Like just recently when he shoved a meat hook (I mean a literal one) through Bullseye's chest and then kept him alive just so the game to continue. But when Deadpool takes you seriously, you go down.
Deadpool is like Wile E. Coyote + Bugs Bunny + Frankensteins monster. Which means he is awesome, and not just a shallow bad ass, there is some depth and complexity to the character. Anyway, cool posters.
Comment #17. As much as I'd love to see a kick as Doctor as Bruce Banner, it just wouldn't work. His too fun for such a dark role
We does everyone think that Deadpool fans are JUST GUYS I love Deadpool he is epic and am I chick. There are a few Girl comic book nerds out there. So don't just bash guys, cause Deadpool = epic. I want to see Deadpool up on the big screen !!! Cause Spider-man needs a rest and Green Lantern just needs to … nevermind I will not go there. Ryan Reynolds Why not THE FLASH? Keep an almost the same colour sceme in both Marvel and DC worlds ^.^
