The stars are aligning to congratulate Deadpool on its massive success at the box office this weekend.

The R-rated Marvel film from 20th Century Fox is expected to cap its 4-day weekend haul with $150 million. In doing so, it has garnered the attention of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, who took to Twitter to congratulate Ryan Reynolds' new film.

Johnson will be playing Black Adam in the upcoming Shazam! movie from Warner Bros. and DC Comics. Surely, Shazam! will seek to fulfill the same type of originality Deadpool did when it arrives in 2019, so perhaps The Great One is taking notes from Deadpool's success.

Deadpool is now playing in theaters. Shazam! is set for release April 5, 2019.
