Now that we have an official release date for Deadpool, its time for casting news! We already know that Ryan Reynolds is more than likely going to reprise his role as the "Merc with a Mouth", but now a report from The Wrap has stated that actors T.J. Miller and Ed Skrein have joined the cast for the upcoming film.
With script by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, and directed by Tim Miller, Deadpool is set to release in theaters on February 12th, 2016.

According to the report, T.J. Miller will play be a comic voice “to
compliment Deadpool, who often breaks the fourth wall and speaks
directly to the audience.” I personally find Miller extremely hilarious (and was the best part of Transformers: Age of Extinction). And being a fan of the comics myself, his casting sounds perfect for the role rumored for him. The report did not specify what role Skrein might be
play, but its said that he could end up
being the villian of the movie.
Ryan Reynolds originally played Deadpool in X-Men Origins: Wolverine,
but that version of the character was hated by almost everyone as it completely changed the core essential element of the character. With the leaked test footage from a couple months ago, it seems like Fox is going in the right direction with the character that they should've gone with all along.
