Why does Fox own Deadpool?

[Archaeis]

I get that they bought F4 and X-men and most associated characters, but is Deadpool really that closely associated with x-men? He's not a mutant and from most of what I've seen has been a mostly standalone character in the comic books.

He is a mutant, healing factor and all that.

Plus he started out as mostly a X-men character i believe

No, he's not a mutant. His powers came from the Weapon X program, which I guess is tied in highly to Wolverine's story. But he's been established as a much more standalone character since introduced.

I thought I saw Colossus in one of the previews...if I did then that begs some big questions.

You're right, Colossus is in the movie. Fox might as well use X-men characters as long as they have him. I just more curious as to Why Deadpool is one.

Well, I meant to say that would beg some big questions if Marvel mad the movie. You can't have a mutant in it that way. So they'd have to change a few things, a lot of things, if they used Deadpool in the MCU. I don't know much about him though, I've just been reading about it (or hearing about it via youtube).

I believe he was introduced as a villain for the X-Men. Now he's considered an anti-hero.

As opposed to Scott Lang, who is an Ant-y hero

Doesn't this film contradict the Deadpool stuff in Wolverine?

Entirely. But knowing Deadpool I'm pretty sure it'll get a mention.

What movie? Days of Future Past pretty much wiped out the original timeline.

[P-90_177]

To be fair I'm not sure many people really considered the first Wolverine film canon in the first place.

The hell? It was one of the ONLY good X-men movies...
