This morning, Ryan Reynolds tweeted a picture of himself in the Deadpool costume. a move that appears to coincide with 20th Century Fox revealing the logo, title card, and official movie synopsis.
"Based upon Marvel Comics’ most unconventional anti-hero, Deadpool tells the origin story of former Special Forces operative turned mercenary Wade Wilson, who after being subjected to a rogue experiment that leaves him with accelerated healing powers, adopts the alter ego Deadpool. Armed with his new abilities and a dark, twisted sense of humor, Deadpool hunts down the man who nearly destroyed his life."
The movie will star Ryan Reynolds, Morena Baccarin, Ed Skrein and Gina Carano (see "Gina Carano & Colossus Joining New 'Deadpool' Film"), with Tim Miller directing. The movie is slated for a February 12, 2016 release.
