Thanks to “creative differences,” the highly anticipated Deadpool animated series created by by Donald Glover isn’t going forward. But that doesn’t mean we can’t have a little R-rated fun with a cartoon Deadpool! A new fan edit has recreated the second trailer for Deadpool 2 by using clips from Marvel’s various animated series. Fair warning, this has all of the NSFW language from the red band trailer, which are somehow even funnier in this context.
Via ComicBook.com, this mash-up trailer was put together by YouTube user Darth Blender. For the record, Darth Blender used clips from Ultimate Spider-Man, Hulk vs. Wolverine, Wolverine and the X-Men, and the original X-Men animated series. It doesn’t perfectly match up with the live-action footage, but it does cleverly use Spidey to fill two roles: hapless cab driver Dopinder and the unnamed mutant child hunted by Cable. White Tiger subs in for Deadpool’s girlfriend, Vanessa, which is fitting. In the comics, Vanessa’s codename is “Copycat.”
All of the Cable footage comes from X-Men: The Animated Series, and it just illustrates the fact that he hasn’t had many cartoon appearances since his debut in the ’90s. Conversely, Deadpool only had cameo appearances in that X-Men series, and it’s only been within the last decade or so that he’s made the leap to animation as well. We’re still hopeful a Deadpool animated series will come together, as this trailer serves as a reminder of just how much fun it could be.
