The resounding success of Deadpool at the beginning of 2016 has significantly transformed the perspective of film studios regarding the superhero genre. It seems that superhero films will no longer strictly adhere to the PG-13 rating aimed at attracting younger audiences, as they may shift towards an R-rated format with more explicit violence and adult themes to draw in a broader audience.
Moreover, if you’ve seen Deadpool, you surely cannot overlook the cameo appearance of Stan Lee, who is regarded as the father of Marvel superheroes. His appearances in Marvel superhero films have become a signature moment that audiences look forward to in every installment.
However, it seems that this beloved figure is feeling quite disappointed, particularly with his cameo scene in Deadpool. In a recent interview, Stan Lee expressed:
“I don’t know if I should mention the disappointment regarding the cameo scene in Deadpool. The reality is that I was not on set for a single line of dialogue. I had to shoot the scene in a studio, not in a real setting… I was really frustrated by this!”
According to Stan Lee’s perspective, the film team should have opted for a real setting rather than a studio for his cameo. With Stan Lee’s candid sharing, some devoted fans have expressed their disappointment, noting that despite his advanced age, he still seems quite “sprightly” when it comes to his iconic cameo roles. Thus, we can anticipate seeing Stan Lee in many more Marvel superhero films in the future.
