Absolutely Lowest But Good “Deadpool 2” Trailers and Poster

action, adventure, based on a book, sequels, , ,

Directed by David Leitch, Deadpool 2 arrives with cafeteria chef Wade Wilson or Deadpool, played by Ryan Reynolds. Wilson survived a near-fatal bovine attack, though it disfigured him, and he still is trying to make his dream come true, becoming Mayberry’s hottest bartender. While he is learning to cope with his lost sense of taste, he is still trying to add more spice to his life as he battles a sundry of squirrelly characters that make no sense.

Leitch directed Charlize Theron in the 2017 comedy-thriller Atomic Blonde, which I wrote about earlier. It seems he likes to direct movies that are not all that serious and have some over-the-top humor.

Josh Brolin also stars as Nathan Summers or Cable. He looks to be Deadpool’s nemesis. The trailers and clips below are crazy and weird, but that is how Deadpool movies play out on the screen, so enjoy them and try to figure out the storyline. I sure didn’t.

“Atomic Blonde” Trailer, Clips, and Interviews

Directed by David Leitch and starring Oscar winner Charlize Theron, Atomic Blonde appears to be a breakneck action-thriller that follows MI6’s most lethal assassin through a ticking time bomb of a city simmering with revolution and double-crossing hives of traitors. But it is actually a hilarious movie. The trailer is such a wonkier.

The crown jewel of Her Majesty’s Secret Intelligence Service, Agent Lorraine Broughton, played by Theron, is equal parts spycraft, sensuality, and savagery, willing to deploy any of her skills to stay alive on her impossible mission. Sent alone to Berlin to deliver a priceless dossier out of the destabilized city, she partners with embedded station chief David Percival, played by James McAvoy, to navigate her way through the deadliest game of spies. Does this make any sense? It’s hilarious.

The rest of the cast is just awesome. The movie also stars John Goodman, Til Schweiger, Eddie Marsan, Sofia Boutella and Toby Jones. The film is based on the graphic novel series The Coldest City by Antony Johnston and illustrator Sam Hart.

These two interviews with Charlize and Sofia are well thought out. Charlize mentions Apartheid and Berlin during the Cold War. Sofia talks about how stunt work is quite different than dancing.

I am having fun watching the clips. They are so much fun and funny.
