Auditioned for the role of "Anthony Stark". Didn’t come even remotely close, but the nice man with the taser escorted me to the ground.

The foul-mouthed superhero was one of the few Marvel comic characters not owned by Disney, but after Fox's merger with the industry giant, Deadpool has become a Marvel Studios property.

According to Variety, Fox film's former president of production, Emma Watts, who was part of the first two films, will no more oversee the franchise. Deadpool and Deadpool 2 have earned an impressive $1.5 billion worldwide combined. Reynolds most recently appeared in Netflix’s 6 Underground.
