When he eventually talks to MH, the 40-year-old actor is in pre-production for the keenly awaited sequel to Deadpool. Despite a relatively meagre $58m budget (that’s barely enough to keep Robert Downey Jr’s goatee trimmed on an Avengers film), the gleefully immature anti-superhero movie earned $783m, making it one of 2016’s highest grossing releases. And not just in the fart-gag sense. By contrast, Suicide Squad, which came out the same year and aimed at a similar graphic novel-reading demographic, cost $175m and only made $745m. In doing so, Deadpool smashed the record set by 2003’s The Matrix Reloaded to become the most successful ‘R-rated’ movie (adopts Kanye voice) of all time.
It’s hard, then, to believe that such a project had languished in development purgatory for over a decade. It’s rather less difficult to believe that 20th Century Fox greenlit the sequel (slated for summer 2018) before the original even arrived in cinemas, such was the pre-release buzz and projected box office. Hence there are no signs of Reynolds being able to stop anytime soon. Pre-production days are, he says, “really long and kind of abstract” with not enough hours in which to get everything – including pesky interviews – done and dusted. “It’s much more taxing than actual production,” says the Vancouver native. “In fact, the 16-hour shooting days will come as something of a relief.”
