Ron Richards of iFanboy.com on special assignment for ComicBook.com was invited to hang out, chat, and play pool at Sister Margaret’s with two of the stars of Deadpool, Ryan Reynolds and T.J. Miller. During the conversation, Reynolds talked a bit about his experience working with Deadpool creator Rob Liefeld, who had a brief cameo in the movie.

“I honestly think Rob Liefeld pisses lightning,” Reynolds said, but went on to explain how much he appreciates all of Liefeld’s support for the film.
“He’s been such a huge supporter of the movie, and he’s been such a cheerleader for Deadpool for, obviously, 25 years. That’s his baby. He’s obsessed with it.”
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.
Deadpool is directed by Tim Miller, with a screenplay by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, and stars Ryan Reynolds, Morena Baccarin, Ed Skrein, T. J. Miller, Gina Carano, Brianna Hildebrand, Stefan Kapiฤiฤ, and Leslie Uggams.
