Deadpool came out in 2016 and was an absolutely massive hit, grossing more than $780 million worldwide against a modest budget.
The movie's success prompted plans for two sequels, the first of which, Deadpool 2, dropped in May, 2018. While it cost a bit more to make than the first one, it made even more money. The second film also came with a second version, a PG-13 version officially called Once Upon a Deadpool (the first two full flicks were both rated R).
