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.
Director Tim Miller’s upcoming Deadpool movie has wrapped filming. It has been revealed that actor and stunt performer Andre Tricoteux (Seventh Son) is playing the incredibly strong and impressively durable Colossus.
Fun fact: Wade Wilson and Colossus have fought in the comics. In writer Daniel Way and artist Paco Medina’s Deadpool #18, some of the X-Men go after Wade and attempt to take him down.
Game of Thrones star (Ed Skreins) revealed via Twitter his character in the 2016 Deadpool movie will be Ajax.

Here is a quick history of the Ajax Character from the Deadpool comics:
The man known only as Francis was the former enforcer at Dr. Killebrew's laboratory, known as the Workshop, part of the Hospice for failed supersoldiers at the Weapon X Project. Francis acted as the strongarm for Killebrew, reigning in the project's "washouts" that were fodder for Killebrew's sadistic experiments whenever they stepped out of line. This included Wade Wilson, who would later be known as the mercenary Deadpool.
Having had his nerves removed by Killebrew for better pain management, he would later have enhanced strength and intuitive capability, as well as receiving subcutaneous implants for super-speed and agility.
Deadpool looks to be shaping up well. Ryan Reynolds will star in the title role of the film along with TJ Miller as Weasel, Gina Carano as Angel Dust, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, and Morena Baccarin as Copycat. The film will also feature the mutant Colossus, though Daniel Cudmore has confirmed he will not appear as the character.

Yesterday in true April Fools fashion the above video was posted on behalf of Marvel's Deadpool. It is a must see. Enjoy!
Ryan Reynolds took to his Twitter today, to share with fans the first official look at Deadpool's suit for the upcoming Deadpool movie. I will have to say the suit is straight from the comics. Reynolds and company are taking this movie very seriously. So far, from everything we have seen the film looks faithful to the source material.
