Oh how I wish this is how he is in the whole movie.
Yeah. With a mouth. And no freaking lazers coming from his eyeballs.
Yeah I wish he was like this in the whole movie too.
I can't ignore the evidence of the toy that has been presented. However, from what I've read there is alot being said that perhaps Deadpool and Weapon XI are two different characters. According to a MTV in an article(link posted below) said that these two are indeed two different characters. To simply put it the guy playing weapon XI is only Ryans stunt double. I still hold on to the hope that quite possibly if Ryan is Weapon XI, He loses the powers and baraka blades aka overload of powers and then is deemed a failure and sent into the Deadpool (The Origin of how he originally spawns)Of course this is much speculation but trying to piece things together through this webs comments and IMDB Wolverine Origins posts Its a possibility.

Note the gun on his side. FIRST time to see Ryan with a gun as Deadpool! probably never uses it though as we see him so far in trailers as a sword swinging DP. Plus they got agent zero as the gun guy already...
if you walk out with an umbrella ur expecting for it to rain.... so he has to use that gun... you cant have deadpool Not fire a weapon during a hole movie
*Ding* Lightbulb..
Deadpool has taken identities before..
Maybe this Weapon is called Deadpool, also..
Maybe Wade steals the name?
The Movie's website is updated with voice of characters, wallpapers, icons for almost all of the characters but guess what...they left out wade..there is wolvie sabertooth gambit wraith blob stryker even agent zero but there is no deadpool! What's up with that?
How can anyone really like this deadpool anymore then the laser eye and arm blade deadpool? He looks just as lame with his t-shirt and plastic sword sheaths around is chest lol. He looks like he shopped at a Halloween or Novelty store to dress himself for battle. lol He doesn't look like a soldier at all..
good to see him with a gun, small pleasures from the almighty mess that is the weapon xi debacle.
this is how im going to watch the film, regardless of whether its actually how it plays out - the above photo is wade wilson, that i can deal with, reynolds is perfect casting, even bares a remote resemblence to how wilson looks in the circle chase flash backs. the whole weapon xi thing is the section of deadpools origin where they try to turn him into a superhero/weapon. hes going to lose to wolverine, obviously, so whatever mess he is left in means that he washes out as a failure. From there regardless how they leave it, a spin off should be able to pick up with him in the hospice under killebrew getting ripped to bits, and later becoming the 'pool we know.
its easier to deal with having that in my head regardless of how ignorant it is! ignorance is bliss!
aside from that i am actually looking forward to the film, i imagine its going to be abit messy in places but looks like theres going to be alot of fun in there as well.
im not a diehard wolverine fan so probably easier for me to watch them change stuff with his origin.
This isn't Deadpool, it's Wade Wilson. Why would he be in full costume yet? He probably won't get a costume atall, if he does it will be in the closing moments, those reshoots in January feature him and Logan in Canada setting up a sequel to Wolverine and possibly a DP solo.
Wade Wilson still looks pretty lame though.
Fair point. But I am really liking the look of that scene where he just strolls into that room of machine gun toting goons and starts slicing them apart. When he has the kevlar vest on his outfit isn't that much different than the outfit he wore in the "Agent of Weapon X" storyline in his old solo series. Could be a nod to that. But it all depends on taste, if you didn't like it in the comics you aint gonna like it on film.
everyone just needs to take it for what it is. of course they where going to change him. you had to know that as they announced he was in the movie. it sucks but it is what it is. at least hes actually in the movie right?
i feel this whole group of commenters have grown and matured so much since the "i hate fox and waa waa waaa" commenters... im glad some people can just see it as fun, regardless of what happens.. its not like they are changing the comic or anything and plus i want to hear deadpool himself say what he liked and didnt like about this movie because you know he will soon
@ Spidey42410
I agree with u...the weapon xi thing & those toys had me nervous at first, but now i plan to see the movie regardless...
I'm a Deadpool fan so I'll support what he does/ or is in...
Deadpool fans, I have come across a very credible source (he guaranteed that Gambit would have a Cajun accent long before the website got those soundbites).
He says that Weapon XI is basically a transition period between Wade Wilson and the real Deadpool. During the final fight Wolverine inflicts so much damage to him and he gets caught in that chimney/water tower collapse from the trailer, that it sends his healing factor into overload. Cause his body to reject the augmentations (cyclops eyes, arm blades). This causes his body to mass degenerate and break down, leaving a more traditional Deadpool. This is only in the actual finale of the film though, sorta like a cliffhanger. I do believe the guy, he goes into a lot of detail, details that couldn't just be randomly cooked up. He says the producers/SFX team found it really hard to give him the scarred appearance without making him look TOO much like Freddy Krueger. He also mentions things about Blobs fat suit smelling of sulphur and that for a brief period Creed was going to have a dodgy blone wig, but they ditched the idea.
Keep the faith true believers!
see it to believe it, thanks for the maybes
Hmm. I am new to this site, so awesome that I found it! My husband loves Deadpool and he told me about it. I wish Ryan Reynolds had more than a 10 minute part in this movie, yum :)
It is a shame what Fox Studios is doing to the character of Deadpool as a "transition" part in this movie. I think they missed a real opportunity by not making Gambit and Deadpool immediate supporting actors.

LOL guys he is going to be full suited deadpool at the end of the movie and guys and he is going to be the original spawn as seen in comics in wolverine origenes
man if this really does happen the way it is "rumored" then i would love to see all the bitter nah sayers eat their hats
I agree Spidey. Also found something interesting
I know it's just Wikipedia and there's no source, but under Weapon XI, it reads:
"Scott Adkins has reportedly been cast as Weapon XI in the movie X-Men Origins: Wolverine It has been revealed that his powers will be a mix of various other powers copied from other mutants, such as Wolverine's healing factor and Cyclops's optic blast among others. He will have a final confrontation with Wolverine at the end of the film in, X-Men Origins; Wolverine. There was also a minor misunderstanding that this character was Deadpool due to an improper action figure labeling."

Whaddya guys think? Did the mooks in China confused Weapon XI for Deadpool?
Well I hate Wolverine he is so over rated! Has anyone heard or seen anything about Deadpool ever having laser beams come out his eyes, or giant blades come out of his arms? So why put it in the movie?
hahaha wikipedia shut up and accept it!
Guys, this is a rumor that has been going around on various message boards. I wanted to post it here for all of you so you can relax a little perhaps. I don't know where this rumor originally came from. It certainly didn't come from me. But let's hope it's true:
"Reynolds plays him pre-this monstrosity.
He is the constantly blabbering, envious guy we know, but he is turned into Weapon XI because Weapon X (Wolverine) didn't work out the way they had planned (you can see that XI doesn't do too well either).They attempt to give him healing factor, blades and apparently Cyclops' ability and because he keeps talking too much they sow his mouth shut.
Eventually Wolverine maims him, i.e. his arms are sliced off and he is left to die in an exploding reactor, not unlike the final scene of X2. It explodes, but he lives due to a still working yet slightly dysfunctional healing factor that leaves him horribly scarred. He then takes the blades out, carves his mouth open and dons the red costume again. A perfect set-up to a spin-off movie with Reynolds."
personally, it still won't justify the end product. they don't care about DP's origin because, to Fox (and really, in the grand scheme of things) DP is still a supporting character, to many people. this is the studio's opportunity to launch a possible spin-off, and while this interpretation looks like a shitty deal to the rest of us, it works as an adequate transition for them.
after having time to calm down about this whole matter, i understand that now. doesn't mean i'm not frustrated, but i'm still waiting to pass final judgment until the film's release.
I understand what you are saying Bob. But think about it. They are doing this solely for the G.A, the main targets. In the long run it could work out well for us DP fans. Because if the general audience likes this bad ass, but ultimately tragic character, and Reynolds pulls it off (which I'm pretty much certain he will) then it will get them very interested in seeing further adventures of Deadpool.
A new friend of mine, Steve, brings a good point today at Downtown Comics.
-Originally yes Weapon XI was Deadpool...
-Fox tells Hasbro to go ahead a make the toys...
-Hasbro tells the Chinese company what to do with the toys and naming...
-The company prints the toys and ships them to the US
-Fox realizing that they screwed up because Ryan Reynolds is a big actor and Deadpool is a cult-phenom decides to make Weapon XI some random jabroni and shoots more Wade Wilson/ Deadpool scenes with Reynolds...
-Fox tells Hasbro to hold up on the toys with Deadpool name on them...
-Hasbro tells the Chinese toy company to hold up becuase now that isn't Deadpool...
So now we have toys that say Deadpool as Weapon XI, originally true, but after reshoots with Reynolds now not the same character.
I am thinking flawless, good job Steve
God I hope Steve is right.
I guess I just don't get why they needed to change his origin story for the general audience. Clearly they couldn't keep it exactly the same, bu Deadpool's story is already a perfect fit for the target audience. A wise-crackin' merc who kicks ass and takes names. He's the character that 90% of all action movies are written around, except better.
I can understand why his origin was tweaked. A guy who has terminal cancer isn't exactly great material for a pg-13/12a film is it?
"Daddy what's wrong with that man?"
"He has terminal cancer son"
Errr...yea right.
If that iffy review of the film that is floating around is actually correct then Steve's theory is out of the window. I guess we have to wait till May 1st.
Deadpool is Weapon XI. The toys are already on the shelves. A greedy compant like Fox wouldn't let Hasbro mis market their product. They would sue them for everything they have got if they made that big a cock up.
@numb007 it seems your friend Steve's theory looks correct at this point, but May 1st will tell us for sure.
Yeah we'll have to wait till May 1st to see for sure. The "Barakapool" version toy has been removed from Toysrus.com as if I dosen't exist and on Big Bad Toy Store.com "Barakapool" isn't listed as a part of series 2 Wolverine Origin Toys anymore, so it looks like it was a mistake.
The toys that were already release such as Super Hero Squad and early series 2 Wolverine Origins cases will just have to live with the mistake, but when they rerelease the series 2 case it will have Weapon XI instead of Deadpool on it, it seems.
-Lil Wade "Loli-Changa-Pop"
@Lil Wade haha I like that!
I just checked www.hasbro.com/marvel and that "Deadpool" figure isn't even listed as a figure in Wolverine Origins Series 2. So it looks like Hasbro and Fox have fixed their mistake! Yay!
Deathcoven i agree with you on the Wolverine thing.
All that we can do is say "Hey, at least the Ryan Reynolds parts will be good", hope that we see masked deadpool at the end, and laugh at the fact that weapon xi looks likes If Baraka and James Maynard Keenan from Tool had a baby
and of course pray that this is all just a stupid rumor started because of a mislabeled toy
THIS IS FUCKING BULLSHIT!!!
ive waited for deadpool to be on screen for so long and fox has to fuck it up!! evan when they get the perfect guy to play him the fox writers still find a way to fuck the greatest character ever created! i swear if they dont make a fucking spin off or something to fix this thing the fox writers have just shit out their ass im going to burn down their fucking studio! i fucking swear!!!!!!!!!!1
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weapon_Plus
Apparently, Weapon XI is a different character and is eve played by a different actor.....
I could be wrong.....
MOST LIKELY DEADPOOL DOES BECOME WEAPON XI (SADLY). BUT THE SLICING OPEN OF THE MOUTH AND RESULTS OF HIS EXPEIMENTS LEAVES HIM DISFIGURED AND THEN WOLLAA "DEADPOOL". POSS FOX'S WAY OF BY PASSING THE CANCER STORY VERSION.
SEWN UP MOUTH, I THOUGHT WAS A CLEVER BIT TO INSERT IN THE (CANCER BY PASSING) ORIGIN. AS I SAID MOST LIKELY DEADPOOL THEN. BUT EVENTUALLY HE WEARS THE MASK AND WISECRACKS!!!
DONT GET ME WRONG THO, I AM PISSED ABOUT IT. HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE.
BUT I DO RECON THE TRANSFORMATION GOES WADE WILSON - WEAPON XI - DEADPOOL. INTSTEAD OF THE ORIGINAL WADE WILSON- CANCER - WOLERINES CURE - DEADPOOL. WHICH I GUESS WAS TOO MUCH TO PUT IN A WOLVERINE MOVIE STORY. SHOULD OF JUST CAMEOED HIM AND PUT HIS ORIGIN IN A SPIN OFF DEADPOOL MOVIE CAMEOING WOLVERINE.
BTW DOES ANYONE NOTICE THAT GAMBIT'S EYES HAVE ONLY RED IRIS'S. ITS NOT AS IF FOX CANT AFFORD TO MAKE HIM HAVE THE BLACKED OUT EYES WITH A RED IRIS.
RECON GAMBIT FANS WILL BE PISSED.
HOWEVER I DONT HAVE TOTAL KNOWLEDGE ON GAMBITS ORIGIN AND HAVE HEARD HE GETS HIS EYES BLINDED BUT RESTORED, BUT LEAVING THEM BALCKED OUT IN THE END.
CAN ANYONE HELP ME ON THIS CONFUSION?

"Do you wear the mask at all?
Reynolds: I'm not going to answer that."
@#%&$ @#$%&%#&@!!!
...That doesn't sound good... But it also doesn't sound bad... AAARGH! I'm confused now!
If only they would of kept it like that. That way, when his cancer kicks in, Stryker offers him his life back and they can make a Deadpool movie.
I hope he gets the mask.
if he does turn into that wierd thing i hope at least gets the awsome suit.
