Thanks to Disney’s historic acquisition of 20th Century Fox and all of their lucrative IP, the live-action rights to Deadpool are now property of Walt Disney and, by effect, Marvel Studios.

Exactly how the Merc with a Mouth will fit into the Marvel Cinematic Universe still remains unclear, but from everything we’ve been told, it seems the Powers That Be want to keep on with the Deadpool series as is, before they start plotting some crossovers and team-ups for Ryan Reynolds’ anti-hero down the line.

And though it may be a while before we learn of exactly what they have planned for Wade Wilson, Reynolds has taken to social media this week to tease that that he recently had a meeting with folks at Marvel Studios. His caption (see below) might’ve been cheeky and laugh-out-loud funny – as is par for the course for the actor – but it’s clear that something’s brewing regarding Deadpool and his imminent introduction into the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
