It looks like Ryan Reynolds may have gotten the idea for Once Upon a Deadpool from a fan that Tweeted him the plot of the movie almost a full year ago.

Thinking both scenarios may only have surface similarities and this was most likely just a funny coincidence? Check out the Tweet for yourselves.


Reynolds has been taking credit for pitching the idea for the PG-13 rated version of Deadpool 2 to Fox along with writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick during interviews, but it looks like he may have left someone out of the equation!

In all seriousness, there is always a chance this was some kind of crazy coincidence. We'll just have to wait and see how/if the actor responds.

What do you guys make of this? Drop us a comment down below.

@StarlordsDad - assuming thats even what happened. This isnt enough for it to be unreasonable to assume its a big coincidence and theres a big possibility that theres a lot more to this movie that it just being deadpool 2 censored with a framing device. In fact they've mentioned that so much has changed its basically a different movie.

Totally off subject but has anyone else noticed that Venom is about to cross $800 million?

@Fckdcfanboys - There goes any chance of marvel getting full use of the Spiderman characters. Guess people like crap. Transformers 3 and 4 show that

I'm gonna think outside the box here and posit there's a chance that Ryan Reynolds hasn't necessarily seen every single tweet that gets sent to him. Two different people can have the same idea, and frankly I feel like I have a vague memory that Fred Savage has already done this once before in a different context, sort of recreated TPB set up but as an adult.

@CaptCoulson - Reynolds doesn't have to see every single Tweet that gets sent to him to see this one.

Actually, totally aside from this tweet thing, but this PG13 cut is supposed to be showing in China, correct? I could've sworn I heard that. And yet, with the country's (ludicrous) ban on any movies that feature time travel, I sincerely don't know how you recut it so Cable ISN'T coming from the future to kick off the story without making it a totally different film.

@CaptCoulson - I guess this would further debunk any theory of Avengers 4 involving time travel. Interesting. 🤔🤔🤔

@CaptCoulson - really? Because dr strange was all about time travel and they built the cast itself with the chinese release in mind. Where are you getting this?

@CaptCoulson - i just checked where x men days of future past was released. Thats a time travel movie that was released in china.

@CaptCoulson - China has relaxed that law. As long as a movie doesn't change certain Chinese lore or Chinese prominent figures it's allowed. Something like that

@Origame - Admittedly I may not have head my head fully wrapped accurately around the issue, but I wasn't just pulling it out of my ass either

@CaptCoulson - so under very specific circumstances involving chinese history? Ok.

Well that sucks if true.....kind of reminds me how several of us tip off the writers of this site on news and never get any kind of credit!

@L0RDbuckethead - how? You don’t own tweets. It would be like if I was dumb enough to write a script and give it to Fox to read without making sure I made the proper protections first. It is what it is. Ryan will probably do something for him based on principal, but nobodies getting rich off of tweets

@CaptainAmerica @PoolParty

Relax. It was a joke. Which you both seemed to have missed. What did I do to you?

Have a happy Thanksgiving.

@L0RDbuckethead - I thought bamboozled was good enough for you to know I knew what I know.
