Will they do this in the upcoming film, too?

Is there any evidence or secured information, e.g. in the form of a recent interview or article about the film, that confirms or denies that this aspect of Deadpool will be part of the movie?



Best Answer

From the green band trailer, Deadpool certainly seems to be self aware as a character in a film and does break the fourth wall. In one of the fight scenes he looks directly into camera and says "Cue the music." at around 1:28. This bit is omitted from the red band trailer (NSFW), which is what most people seem to be watching.

In addition to this, in an interview with Empire, there's a quote from the director about the Green Lantern reference in the preview where he specifically states that, while Wade Wilson doesn't break the fourth wall, he implies that Deadpool does.

"That got a good laugh at Comic-Con. For the most part, we try to stick to the rule that Wade Wilson can’t break the fourth wall. He’s not aware that he’s in a movie. Deadpool is. He only breaks the fourth wall when he’s Deadpool. So we’re tiptoeing on the edge of breaking our own rule there, because he’s still Wade at that point.

This quote is from an interview at the 2015 Comic Con.

Answer 3

As an after the fact answer, having seen the movie, there is multiple instances of Leaning on the Fourth Wall, Breaking the Fourth Wall, and a complete Lack of Fourth Wall, as well as some Lampshade Hanging (A subtle difference from Leaning on the Fourth Wall).

As noted, in the trailers, the "Please don't make my supersuit green or animated" line is an example of Lampshade Hanging, as are the "sewing his mouth shut" moments. These are meta references that the audience knows about, but made some sense in-universe during the movie. The "Cue the Music" is also a Lampshade Hanging.

Once Wade has gone and adapted to being Deadpool, there are several Leaning on the Fourth Wall moments:

Gum on the Car Window/Camera.
Glances towards the camera.

Then there is the direct Fourth Wall breaking:

Deadpool directly speaking or referencing the audience multiple times. The other characters ignore this as typical Wade insanity. These asides are heard by the others but not understood/believed.

And a few moments of No Fourth Wall:

The Breaking the Fourth Wall, while Breaking the Fourth Wall.
The Fast Forward, Rewinds, and movie flashbacks, as referenced by Deadpool.
