New Deadpool Vs. Ajax Image

Deadpool Red-Band Trailer #2

Check out a new image from the Deadpool movie as the Merc With The Mouth Takes on Ajax, played by Ed Skrein.

“Ryan’s like Muhammad Ali, dancing around, whispering in my ear,” Skrein says. “And I’m George Foreman. Every blow is like a haymaker and I just want to take his head off.”

Reynolds describes Deadpool as a lean little jackal — though he had second thoughts upon encountering Skrein on set. “Ed got yoked for the movie,” he says. “I saw his arms and got pretty upset at myself for not working out harder.”

“Deadpool” has a February 12, 2016 release directed by Tim Miller starring Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool, TJ Miller as Weasel, Gina Carano as Angel Dust, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Morena Baccarin as Copycat and Ed Skrein as Ajax.

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.
