Ryan Reynolds, you are nailing the tone of this movie so far.
The first official image of Deadpool in costume was tweeted out today by the actor, and it’s basically perfect:

What’s this movie even about?
We’re not 100% sure, but we do have an official plot 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.
That’s pretty vague, but it’s pretty much the Deadpool from the comics (and there’s no mention of X-Men Origins), so that works for me.
When is it coming out?
The film is currently shooting right now, aiming for a February 12, 2016 release date.
Can I get a high-res version of that image for, uh, reasons?
Of course:
