Every year at Comic-Con, it seems there's one movie that comes out of left field, wows the fans in Hall H and rides out of the convention on a wave of buzz. Last year it was "Mad Max: Fury Road."
This year it looks to be "Deadpool."
The film wasn't included in the confirmed list of movies at 20th Century Fox's panel Saturday afternoon, but fans had hoped the foul-mouthed, wise-cracking, fouth-wall-breaking superhero known as the "Merc with the mouth" would pop up at some point – and they weren't disappointed.
Not only did star Ryan Reynolds appear on stage along with the film's director, Tim Miller, and several co-stars, but Fox debuted a couple of minutes of footage that essentially played like a red-band trailer, showing off the film's blend of action and very R-rated comedy.
