Marvel's Deadpool (Earth-113599)

Marvel's Deadpool is a 2013 live-action superhero film based on the character by the same name. It is the overall tenth film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the second film of Phase 2. It is the first installment in the franchise to have been released with an R-Rated Cut. It was released worldwide on July 5th 2013.

Production
Due to contracts made by Marvel Entertainment to avoid total bankruptcy in the early nineties, the Marvel Cinematic Universe was prohibited from introducing some of their most popular properties such as Spider-Man, and the X-Men into the new continuity. However, there was a detail in these contracts which entailed certain characters could be used by both Disney and Fox/Sony respectively which was highlighted in a 2009 trial over the use of the term Mutant.

In 2010, Ryan Reynolds came to Marvel Studios after learning they shared the film rights to Deadpool. Insisting that after years of trying to have 20th Century Fox greenlight a film based around the character to no avail, pitched the idea to Disney and his desire to star in the titular role. Kevin Feige desired for the MCU in Phase 2 to have at least one new movie franchise introduced every year in order to keep the brand interesting and consistently moving forward, and liked the idea of introducing Deadpool as a part of that. Believing him to be the closest thing they could ever do to a Spider-Man style film and that the he would help establish Mutants. However, the raunchy nature of Deadpool's character was unheard of being adapted for a comic book movie and Disney was having trouble figuring out how to proceed. In early 2011, test footage was leaked for the movie and received tremendously positive response online in spite of its r-rated content.

At Comic Con 2011, Feige confirmed that a Deadpool movie was in development for Phase 2 and Ryan Reynolds would be starring as the lead character. News of the film began to release confirming Ajax would be the film's main villain alongside Black Swan. It was also announced, to much surprise, that the Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver would also be making an appearance in the movie as supporting characters. Principle filming began in  2012 and was released in theaters worldwide July 5th 2013.
