The 20 Best Moments From Deadpool’s Brilliant Marketing Campaign

Deadpool has always been a fan favourite within the pages of Marvel comics, but after Fox sewed the Merc's mouth shut in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, things looked bleak for the future of Wade Wilson on film.

After the Deadpool movie was denied distribution in China, apparently it had something to do with the fact that there may some nudity and violence on display, the Merc with a Mouth took the high road and wished Chinese fans a “Happy Year Of The Monkey.”

It’s a shame that fans in China won’t be able to see the film until later down the line, but Deadpool is almost guaranteed to be a huge success regardless. If you’re fortunate enough to live in one of the countries that will screen an uncut version of the film, head down to your local cinema now and camp outside.
