What's left behind the scenes
- Deadpool was created by artist Rob Liefeld and writer Fabian Nicieza and first appeared in comic book "The New Mutants" #98 (February 1991).
- Deadpool ranked 182nd in Wizard magazine's "200 Greatest Comic Book Characters of All Time"; ranked 45th in Empire magazine's "50 Greatest Comic Book Characters", and in May 2011, ranked 31st in IGN's "Top 100 Comic Book Heroes of All Time".
- There are many striking similarities between actor Ryan Reynolds and comic book character Deadpool. They both have the same height – 188 cm, hair color – brown, and eye color – brown; they are both Canadian, and both have alliterative three-part names: Ryan Rodney Reynolds and Wade Winston Wilson; Ryan began his acting career in 1991, the same year Deadpool first appeared on the pages of Marvel comics ("The New Mutants #98"). Furthermore, Ryan is a fan of Deadpool and has repeatedly stated that playing Deadpool is his dream. He has been trying to make a film about the talkative mercenary since 2003, when the film was being developed by New Line Cinema, with David S. Goyer appointed as director, but due to a lack of rights to other characters, the project was closed and the rights to Deadpool were sold to 20th Century Fox. There is a reference to the attempt to film in the comic "Cable & Deadpool #2" from June 2004: Deadpool said he looks like a mix of Ryan Reynolds and a Shar-Pei. In 2008, a rumor circulated that Wade Wilson appears in the script for "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" (2009) – Ryan immediately contacted 20th Century Fox to play the role, which involved only a cameo of Wade at the beginning of the film. The script for "Wolverine" was harsh with an R rating, but Hugh Jackman insisted on a PG-13 rating, as a result of which the script was heavily revised by the screenwriters, and the role of Wade Wilson was completely changed at the end of the film.
- In January 2012, a three-minute video was shot to convince studio executives to give the project a "green light". On August 1, 2014, the video was shown to the general public. The audience's delight knew no bounds, and the film was launched into production. Footage from the video was later incorporated into the final version of the film.
- On April 1, 2015, Ryan Reynolds tweeted that the film would receive a PG-13 rating (parental guidance suggested, some material may be inappropriate for children under 13). Fans were outraged, although the main character frequently uses profanity and is by no means averse to violence. That same day, Reynolds admitted he was joking and that the film would receive an R rating (under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian).
- This is Ryan Reynolds' fifth role in a film based on comics. Previously, he played Hannibal in "Blade: Trinity" (2004), Wade Wilson in "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" (2009), Hal Jordan in "Green Lantern" (2011) based on comics from "DC Comics", and Nick Walker in "R.I.P.D." (2013) based on "Dark Horse" comics.
- In the late 1990s, Deadpool became the star of his own comic book series. He operated with an inventor and weapons supplier named Weasel. Occasionally, this character "enhances" Deadpool's weapons and armor. He invented Deadpool's teleportation belt with the Deadpool emblem, as well as a bag with an unlimited amount of weaponry inside.
- Ryan Reynolds promised that Deadpool would be the last comic book hero he would play on screen, but added that he would not refuse the role of Deadpool if it were offered to him.
- This is the first film in the "X-Men" franchise to receive an R rating (under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian).
- Wade Wilson was named as such because the artist who created Deadpool based him on the character Slade Wilson and chose a similar name. Slade was the nickname of the mercenary Deathstroke from DC Comics. The screenwriter decided to "play along" with the plagiarist and chose a name for the character that resonated with the original's alter ego.
- Ryan Reynolds views his hero's ability to "break the fourth wall" as something inspired by the current times. He once said: "I think a Deadpool movie is coming out at the perfect time. It's an appeal to a generation that's already seen movies made from comics and loves them. It's an appeal from a person in a red suit who is one of them. I think it's like watching some modern idol say things you don't have the nerve to say yourself."
- Taylor Schilling, Crystal Reed, Rebecca Rittenhouse, Sarah Greene, and Jessica De Gouw were considered for the role of Vanessa.
- Daniel Cudmore, who played Colossus in previous films in the X-Men franchise, declined to reprise the role in Deadpool. Colossus was instead played by Andre Tricote. Tricote was Colossus on set, his movements were captured for the character (motion capture), and he also served as a reference for the actors. However, the character's appearance was based on actor Glenn Ennis, T.J. Storm served as a model for studio motion capture, Greg LaSalle performed the character’s facial expressions, and Stefan Kapičić provided the voice.
- In June 2010, director Robert Rodriguez was offered the opportunity to direct the Deadpool film, but he chose to shoot Spy Kids 4D (2011) instead.
- The Deadpool costume had special padding to make the hero look more muscular. It had to be removed. Ryan Reynolds was already in good shape, so the costume with padding was too tight for him. Moreover, the actor looked unnaturally large in the costume.
- The film was edited using the «Adobe Premiere CC» video editor.
- Colossus is 2 meters 28 centimeters tall, while Andre Tricote, who played him, is only 2 meters 10 centimeters tall. He had to wear shoes with 20-centimeter soles for filming.
- When filming the fight scene at the junkyard, Gina Carano was more worried about the spiders that lived there than about performing the stunts for the camera.
- Filming the movie took 48 days.
- Ryan Reynolds was actively involved in writing the script.
- Preparing for the role of Rhapsody, Brianna Hildebrand practiced Muay Thai for several months.
- Cannonball and Harrison Kane were removed from the script during development. Kane was cut when it became clear how much it would cost to create a computer-generated image of his cybernetic arms. As for Cannonball, he was considered too "provincial".
- In the trailer, Wade Wilson says, "Just don't make my suit green or animated!" This refers to the superhero role from the "DC Comics universe" in the film *Green Lantern* (2011), in which Ryan Reynolds starred. On the set of that film, the main character's costume was the result of the work of a special effects team, not a sewing workshop.
- Stan Lee made a cameo appearance in the film *Deadpool*. The former director and chairman of the board of *Marvel Comics* played a DJ in a strip club.
- Rob Liefeld, the artist who created Deadpool's image, appeared as a tattoo parlor client. Deadpool, walking by, says: "To hell with Liefeld." The author's name is also written on a coffee mug during the car fight scene (the inscription Rob L. is clearly visible in the opening credits).
- In the scene where the paper mask is removed from his face, the lower bracket is halfway detached. One shot later, it is fully reinserted into the hero's chin.
- In the final scene, during the fight between Deadpool and Francis, Francis stabs Deadpool in the right temple with a knife. In the next scene, after Deadpool removes the knife from his head, his mask is intact and undamaged.
- Deadpool was created by artist Rob Liefeld and writer Fabian Nicieza and first appeared in comic book "The New Mutants" #98 (February 1991).
- Actor Ryan Reynolds and the comic book character Deadpool have many striking similarities. They both have the same height – 188 cm, hair color – brown, and eye color – brown; they are both Canadian, and both have alliterative three-part names: Ryan Rodney Reynolds and Wade Winston Wilson.

- In the late 1990s, Deadpool became the hero of his own comic book series. He operated as a duo with an inventor and weapons supplier named Weasel. Sometimes this character 'decorates' Deadpool's weapons and armor. He is the one who invented the teleportation belt with the Deadpool emblem, as well as a bag with an unlimited amount of weapons inside.
- This is the first film in the X-Men franchise to receive an R rating (persons under 17 are only admitted to screenings when accompanied by a parent or legal guardian).

This refers to the superhero role from the "DC Comics universe" in the film "Green Lantern" (2011), starring Ryan Reynolds. On the set of that film, the main character's costume was the result of the work of a special effects team, not a sewing workshop.
- Stan Lee appeared in a cameo role in the film "Deadpool." The former director and chairman of the board of "Marvel Comics" played a DJ in a strip club.
- Rob Liefeld, the artist who created the image of Deadpool, starred as a client in a tattoo parlor. Deadpool, passing by, says: "To hell with Liefeld." The author's name is also written on a coffee mug during the fight scene in the car (the inscription Rob L. is clearly visible in the opening credits).
