Okay so I think we could argue that Deadpool is probably the coolest super hero – and not just in the Marvel universe. His dark sense of humor is a welcome change from the usual mopiness that seems to come with great power, which is why the movie was so amazing! Here are some facts about Deadpool you might not have known.

1. Ryan Reynolds got to keep the costume after they wrapped production.

But it sounds like he just kinda took it and maybe kept on missing the studio's calls.

6. The costume had a built-in layer of fake muscle that had to be removed because Ryan was so ripped.

I don't know why they would ever think that it was necessary in the first place.
