If you're not yet on board with Ryan Reynolds' foul-mouthed, bullet-dispensing, fourth-wall breaking character in the upcoming DEADPOOL, chances are that you never will be. Those of us who are already fully invested in DEADPOOL has been enjoying just how devoted Ryan Reynolds is to the role as well as the incredible amount of fun he seems to be having popping up in the various promos and trailers leading up to the film's release. Reynolds' latest DEADPOOL appearance comes in the form of an infomercial promoting the February issue of Empire Magazine.

Given how much love has gone into the making of DEADPOOL, I really do hope that Tim Miller and company were able to pull this off. If the film succeeds, it'd be great to see studios taking more risks with their superhero films. Flashing forward to the Blu-ray/DVD release of DEADPOOL for a moment, I'd like to express my hope that Fox will be able to find room on the disc(s) for all of the great pieces of DEADPOOL marketing we've received this year. Make sure to check out our exclusive breakdown of DEADPOOL's latest trailer if you're still hungry for some more DEADPOOL goodness.

The official synopsis of DEADPOOL:

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.

DEADPOOL finally hits theaters on February 12, 2016.
