Once Upon a Deadpool brings Deadpool back to theaters for a more family-friendly rendition of Deadpool 2, but he needs to kidnap Fred Savage for it to happen.
In the first trailer for Deadpool 2’s PG-13 cut, the masked mercenary kidnaps actor Fred Savage, aka the little kid from The Princess Bride, whose grandpa reads him a bedtime story. Since this is the cozy, less gory, less swear-y version of Deadpool 2, it’s only fitting that it be framed as a bedtime story.
