Today ’s annunciation of Disney and Fox’smonumental dealraises a lot of interrogative sentence . For instance : What are the regulatory implications of take down one of Hollywood ’s biggest film studio ? But another query has to do with one of Marvel ’s filthy role , Deadpool , who ’s since become a valuable Fox asset . Well , we can ( probably ) rest slow , as it look like Disney plans on celebrate Wade Wilson ’s soft on mouth around .
Right now , the main Marvel assets that Fox has are go - Men , Fantastic Four , and Deadpool , all of which would be turn over to Disney should the deal go through . cristal - Men and Fantastic Four are slam dunks for the Marvel Cinematic Universe , but Deadpool is trickier . The character ’s R - rated first appearance film was n’t shiner - well-disposed , and the subsequence look to continue that bequest . How would Disney , a very family - friendly caller , cover an R - value Marvel character or moving-picture show ? While nothing is sic in stone , it looks like Disney does n’t plan on turning Wade Wilson out into the coldness . During a call to investors this aurora , Disney CEO Bob Iger indicated that the Deadpool recipe would persist , and could even be applied to other Marvel films .
“ [ Deadpool ] clearly has been and will be Marvel - branded . But we intend there might be an chance for a Marvel - R make for something like Deadpool , ” Iger said . “ As long as we let the audiences know what ’s come , we think we can handle that mulct . ”
Of course , that ’s not a guarantee , and Disney could seek to sprain Deadpool into a PG-13 anti - hero if they want to . However , that would probably mean the loss of Deadpool star Ryan Reynolds , who ’s already busy “ celebrating ” the Disney and Fox deal , in his trademark Deadpool fashion .

But let ’s not forget Disney has owned other studio in the past — Miramax for example — that produced roentgen - rated content . We have a feeling Wade will be just fine .
