Deadpool Movie Synopsis And Logo Released

The official Deadpool movie Twitter account has launched, and with it comes the first hint of a synopsis and logo for the movie.

You can see the icon and text logo above. Both are basically identical to Deadpool’s comic book logos, aside from the extra embossing that tends to come out of a Hollywood tweaking

Here’s the account’s profile synopsis:

Based upon Marvel Comics’ most unconventional anti-hero, DEADPOOL tells the origin story of former Special Forces operative turned mercenary Wade Wilson.

Update: Fox has also now launched the official Deadpool movie website and provided Comicbook.com with a longer synopsis.

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.
