The MCU has been in a slump for the past two years as the reception to their films has mostly been negative. 2023 proved to be one of its worst years as Ant-Man 3 and The Marvels bombed at the box office which was unheard of in the franchise.

The filmmakers and the cast including Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, have been highly confident of the film during the interviews, however, fans still had some concerns due to the franchise’s recent missteps.
Following the film’s world premiere, people have started posting their first reactions on social media of the film and they are highly positive. Many are surprised at how the film went all out with its violence and gore despite being under the Disney banner. Reynolds and Jackman’s performances as well as the surprise cameos in the film are also getting s lot of praise from fans. Here are some of the reactions on X,

DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE is a beautiful sexy beast, funny as shit, and hot. I feel like Wade Wilson would rather I say it is fuckable so it is also that. I love my sassy man with my whole heart but nothing beats seeing him aggressively hitting on Logan #DeadpoolAndWolverine pic.twitter.com/K0M5YIhOKc

After working tirelessly for about two years on Deadpool & Wolverine, Ryan Reynolds, and Shawn Levy finally completed the film and have had their world premiere recently. The duo along with Hugh Jackman worked together to create something fresh and delightful for Marvel fans who were in the ‘superhero fatigue’ zone.
In an interview with The Ringer, the director revealed that he is already sad that the movie is no longer theirs and is now in the hands of the audiences. Making the R-rated tonally audacious feature was one of the most all-consuming, obsessive creative endeavors of Levy’s career that he whole-heartedly enjoyed. Making a palpable story involving two Marvel icons was a great gift for the director. Levy said,
The first is that I already feel how sad it’s gonna be to no longer be making this movie. I have loved making this movie. It has owned my frickin’ soul. It has been the most all-consuming, obsessive, creative infatuation of my life. But I have loved it. And it’s a real privilege not only to play in a sandbox with this many toys but to tell a story involving two icons, two iconic movie stars in their most iconic characters together. That is a delight.
Reynolds and Jackman have also echoed the same sentiment in various interviews about the film being one of the greatest working experiences of their career. In addition to having fun making it, the trio’s friendship and brotherhood have only become more stronger.
Deadpool & Wolverine has received glowing first reactions and everyone will get to see it worldwide on July 26, 2024.
