The highly anticipated "Deadpool" movie might not have an "Avengers" angle.

According to a report from Comicbook.com, director Tim Miller wants the comic book's film adaptation to stick to its original story.

"[It will be the] most comic book-accurate movie ever," he revealed.

"It's an origin story but it's got enough curves and twists to make it fresh and unique, but it's also very true to the comic book."

The big screen adaptation of "Deadpool" will also have the anti-hero wearing his mask throughout the movie. Tim Miller explained that the character, who will be played with actor Ryan Reynolds, will still be able to convey the right emotions even though his face will be covered.

"If Deadpool were a different type of character, it would be difficult to portray emotion," the director said. "But Deadpool is running at the mouth the whole time. You almost don't need to see his face because he's telling you how he feels constantly."

Tim Miller's clarification about the "Deadpool" movie possibly not featuring an "Avengers" angle came after the launch of "Avengers #0."

Revealed earlier this month, the comic book will feature Deadpool as part of the Uncanny Avengers team. The group is made up of members from both the Avengers and X-Men.

Many fans might be disappointed that the "Deadpool" movie won't follow the Avengers' recent story developments. However, many are still looking forward to the film because of its lead actor, Ryan Reynolds.

According to a report from Channel 24, the husband of actress Blake Lively believes that Deadpool's attitude will carry the movie.

"Deadpool's greatest superpower is annoying the shit out of people," Ryan Reynolds joked. "So I imagine that he would spark a heavy wave of ire."

The movie hunk also clarified rumors with Total Film, saying the role was not "custom made" for him as some claim.

"There's been a lot of talk about how I was instrumental in getting it made, which isn't true at all," Ryan Reynolds said.

"I wouldn't say I spent every single day emailing the studio heads at Fox saying, 'You've got to make this movie.'"
