Understandably, fans of the Merc with a Mouth are worried that Disney might censor the character to fit the company's family-centric content but according to Deadpool 3 writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, that won't be an issue at all.

Speaking with DiscussingFilm, Reese shared that Marvel has been supportive of their vision for the character and their desire to keep things the way they were when Deadpool was still part of Fox's X-Men franchise.

He said: "Marvel's really given us the support to maintain the tone and the vision that we have for it. They've been very hands-off and supportive, but they've also let us do what we do. So really, it's just been fun. We're mad scientists back in the laboratory again. Deadpool is our favorite who will always be the character I think we're most associated with, and we're very grateful for being allowed to write him again. So it's a blast. It's like going back to school again after having summer off. It's pretty fun."
