POTD: Ryan Reynolds Lays Around A Familiar Location In A ‘Deadpool 2’ Set Photo
It looks production is underway onDeadpool 2, at least ifRyan Reynolds' recent post on Twitter is to be believed.
Over the weekend, the actor who spent roughly a decade trying to get the R-rated comic book comedy off the ground posted a new photo of himself donning the signature red suit worn by the Merc with a Mouth, but it’s the location where this photo was taken that should be exciting for fans of bothDeadpooland theX-Men.
Check out theDeadpool 2set photo below to see what we’re talking about.
Here’s the image that Ryan Reynolds poster on Twitter on Saturday, June 17:

Just in case you don’t recognize that setting from this angle, that’s Hatley Castle in British Columbia, which you might know better as the location that servesXavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters from theX-Menfranchise. Deadpool is just lounging around the courtyard since none of the X-Men are home, except the two who became friendly with the fourth-wall breaking wise ass last year.
The firstDeadpoolmovie saw the Merc with a Mouth stopping by the X-Mansion to ask Colossus (Stefan Kapicic) and Negasonic Teenage Warhead (Brianna Hildebrand) to help him get back his girl from the hands of Francis (aka Ajax). The rest of the X-Men apparently weren’t home, mostly because as Wade Wilson said himself, the studio wasn’t willing to spend more money to get anymore mutants involved.
The question is whether any other familiar mutants will be popping up inDeadpool 2now that the franchise has proven itself to be a success. TheX-Mentimeline is more than a bit confusing, so having any recognizable mutants from other moviesappearing might create some continuity issues. But that doesn’t mean we won’t get to see some new mutants (though nottheNew Mutants) brought to the big screen, because there have been rumors ofother Marvel Comics characters being introducedin the sequel.
As of now, we already know that Colossus and Negasonic Teenage Warhead will be back. Joining them will beJosh Brolinas Cable as well asZazie Beetzas Domino, both members of the mutant teamX-Force, which will begetting a movie of its ownsometime down the road. We’ll also see non-mutant characters Weasel (T.J. Miller) and the cab driver Dopinder (Karan Soni) returning as well.
Deadpool 2is directed byDavid Leitchand is slated to hit theaters onJune 1, 2018.
