If you needed another reason to see Black Panther in theaters next month, Collider is reporting that the first trailer for the hotly-anticipated Deadpool 2 will be attached to the Marvel Studios release. Black Panther opens in the U.S. on February 16th, and it is said that the Deadpool 2 trailer will hit online on Valentine’s Day – the two year anniversary of the release of the first movie.
While we haven’t seen a full trailer for Deadpool 2 yet, we did get a teaser that saw Ryan Reynolds’ Merc with a Mouth riffing on artist Bob Ross, as well as a couple of posters – see here and here – and the following ‘official’ synopsis:
After surviving a near fatal bovine attack, a disfigured cafeteria chef (Wade Wilson) struggles to fulfill his dream of becoming Mayberry’s hottest bartender while also learning to cope with his lost sense of taste. Searching to regain his spice for life, as well as a flux capacitor, Wade must battle ninjas, the yakuza, and a pack of sexually aggressive canines, as he journeys around the world to discover the importance of family, friendship, and flavor – finding a new taste for adventure and earning the coveted coffee mug title of World’s Best Lover.
Deadpool 2 sees David Leitch (John Wick) directing a cast that includes returning stars Ryan Reynolds (Wade Wilson), Morena Baccarin (Vanessa), T.J. Miller (Weasel), Brianna Hildebrand (Negasonic Teenage Warhead), Stefan Kapicic (Colossus), Leslie Uggams (Blind Al) and Karan Soni (Dopinder) alongside new additions Zazie Beetz (Atlanta) as Domino, Josh Brolin (Avengers: Infinity War) as Cable, Jack Kesy (The Strain) as the film’s villain, and Shioli Kutsuna (The Outsider), Eddie Marsan (Atomic Blonde) and Julian Dennison (Hunt for the Wilderpeople) in as-yet-unrevealed roles. It is set for release on May 18th 2018.
