With a week to go until its release (well, in the UK… our friends across the Pond have an extra couple of days), Fox and Hulu have released a series of character profiles for Deadpool, offering up some details on Ryan Reynolds’ Merc with a Mouth along with Vanessa Carlysle, Colossus, Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Ajax and Angel Dust. Check them out here…

Based upon Marvel Comics’ most unconventional anti-hero, DEADPOOL tells the origin story of former Special Forces operative turned mercenary Wade Wilson, who after being subjected to a rogue experiment that leaves him with accelerated healing powers, adopts the alter ego Deadpool. Armed with his new abilities and a dark, twisted sense of humor, Deadpool hunts down the man who nearly destroyed his life.
