VIDEO: DEADPOOL WAS CREATED BECAUSE SOMEONE LEAKED FOOTAGE?!

Ryan Reynolds was the driver behind the creation of the Deadpool movies and begged the producers for months to make it. The producers turned him down multiple times so how did he get the producers to finally cave?
There had been testing footage made for the movie that had been sitting around for a while but someone managed to get hold of it and leaked the footage on the internet and fans went mad. After hundreds of messages flooding in, the producers finally caved and one of the best movies of the 20th century was created.

Reynolds was in it to win it and was even involved in the marketing and voice-overs. It's almost as if Reynolds was born to play Deadpool with his sarcastic humour, its almost as if he is Deadpool with a Ryan Reynolds disguise.

So, with Deadpool 2 out now, enjoy the Graham Norton Show interview of Reynolds telling the story.
