8 Shocking Differences Between Leaked Deadpool Screenplay And Movie

3. "Hello, My Name Is Francis"

Ajax's real name being Francis is an even bigger deal in the screenplay than it is in the movie, and Wade's obsession with taunting his captor about that leads to him carving something on his forehead during their battle in the facility he's being kept in. What that is isn't revealed to the audience until much later in the movie when he pays a visit to Weasel's bar. It's there that we see Wade carved "Hello, My Name Is Franchise" onto his forehead, and it's tough to say why they decided against including this. Of course, Ajax's story plays out a lot differently here anyway. Rather than leaving Wade behind to burn, the fire brigade and police arrive to arrest the villain after Wade has beaten him, leading the hero with an entirely different sort of predicament as the only man who he believes can cure him is locked in a maximum security prison. In fact, Deadpool is forced to wait FIVE YEARS until he can get his revenge and go after Francis. Other than that, Ajax's arc stills plays out in pretty much the same way, with him kidnapping Vanessa and ultimately taking a bullet to the head. He just so happens to hate Wade even more due to their past encounter.
