Rob Liefeld, skaparen av den storkäftade mutanten Deadpool, pratade nyligen under Cinemablend-podcasten Reelbend om Deadpool-filmernas framgångar och när Deadpools skapelse kom på tal, visar det sig att ingen annan än Penguin-skådisen Danny DeVito var inspirationskällan - eller rättare sagt, filmen Twins med Arnold Schwarzenegger visade sig vara startpunkten för seriefiguren:
"That movie meant a lot to me. ... I said, 'Wolverine in this scenario is Arnold.' He's Weapon X. Weapon 10. I said to Marvel, 'Do we have this correct? Weapon X is Weapon 10?' And they said yes. And I said, 'We've seen not 1 through 9?' They said, 'No, we haven't seen 1 through 9.' Then I said, 'Deadpool is that. He's Danny DeVito. He's burned, he's scarred, he looks like shit. Because they hadn't refined it yet.' And Marvel... I kid you not, they were like, 'Yeah whatever, go with it! Cool!'"
En rättvis jämförelse, eller vad säger du?
I'm the trashman! I come out, I throw trash all over the ring!!
