The runtime revelation comes amidst high expectations, fueled by numerous anticipated cameos, both confirmed and rumored. While many speculated that the film might stretch close to 2.5 hours, official theater listings have settled the runtime at just over 2 hours.
In addition to the runtime announcement, the Deadpool Updates fan page shared a first look at some of the tie-in merchandise and a new promo image featuring Hugh Jackman as Logan and Ryan Reynolds as Wade Wilson. The MPAA has given the movie an R-rating for “strong bloody violence and language throughout, gore, and sexual references.
The new synopsis teases: “Marvel Studios presents their most significant mistake to date – Deadpool & Wolverine. A listless Wade Wilson toils away in civilian life. His days as the morally flexible mercenary, Deadpool, behind him. When his homeworld faces an existential threat, Wade must reluctantly suit-up again with an even more reluctant Wolverine.”
