The Ryan Reynolds version of “Deadpool” might be insane enough to recruit kids. He further joked on Instagram, “Remember, tonight we set our clocks back 34 years”.
The movie, as per IMDB, is about “the most unconventional anti-hero”, Deadpool. As many know, both that film and its treatment of the Deadpool character were not well received by critics and fans. The main character is reportedly a former Special Forces operative who became a mercenary.
The movie also stars T.J. Miller as Weasel, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Andre Tricoteux as Piotr Rasputin/Colossus and Morena Baccarin as Vanessa Carlysle/Copycat. “Armed with his new abilities and a dark, twisted sense of humor, Deadpool hunts down the man who almost destroyed his life”, added IMDB.
Deadpool opens on February 12th, 2016.
