Ryan Reynolds commemorates the first day of filming on Deadpool 2 by sharing a new photo from the set on social media. After the original Deadpool movie became one of 2016?s most successful features, anticipation is sky-high for the sequel. The film endured a somewhat troubled pre-production that saw original director Tim Miller leave, but with John Wick co-helmsman David Leitch now onboard, the ship appears to be sailing smoothly.
