Ryan Reynolds might not be able to reveal when Deadpool will return, but he has assured fans that the foul-mouthed superhero’s movie profession shouldn’t be over. The 49-year-old actor made the revelation during a rare public appearance at Fanatics Fest in Latest York City on Sunday, July 19.

But lovely though.”
