Kevin Feige Reviewed 'Deadpool And Wolverine,' And His Comments Have Somehow Made Me More Excited For This ‘Sweet’ Sequel

There are a handful of reasons why I’m eagerly anticipating the upcoming Marvel movie "Deadpool & Wolverine." For starters, all of the trailers and marketing material have been home runs, from TV spots that revel in Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman’s chemistry to the lewd "Deadpool & Wolverine" popcorn bucket, which you knew was going to be a hit. If this sequel sticks its landing, it has the potential to be discussed as one of the best Marvel movies ever made. And now that Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige is starting to promote the movie, he’s zeroing in on something more important than the foul language, and his comments have me very excited.

Ahead of Marvel’s return to San Diego Comic-Con at the end of this month, Kevin Feige spoke with Deadline about the understood edginess found in "Deadpool & Wolverine," the first official R-rated MCU movie (though the previous two Deadpool movies earned their R ratings). But it was his comments regarding the finished movie that has been shifting my expectations. And raising them.
