Miller<\/strong> as Weasel, Gina Carano<\/strong> as Angel Dust, Brianna Hildebrand<\/strong> as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Morena Baccarin<\/strong> as his love interest Vanessa Carlysle (aka Copycat) and Ed Skrein<\/strong> as Ajax.<\/p>\n

Based upon Marvel Comics\u2019 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.<\/p>\n

Update (Dec. 23):<\/strong> EW<\/a><\/strong> has released a photo of Colossus in which Serbian actor Stefan Kapicic will provide the voice and stuntman Andre Tricoteux will be provided the acting.<\/p>\n

\u201cTim Miller\u2019s idea of Colossus was to be bigger and stronger than everyone else,\u201d<\/strong> Kapicic said. \u201cSo for the motion capture they needed an extremely tall man. I\u2019m 6-foot-4, but he wanted Colossus to be over 7 feet, so they used a stunt double to recreate his height, and he did very good job there. Tim also wanted Colossus to sound as close as possible to the comic book character\u2019s background, so he had me to come in, since my voice was what he envisioned for Colossus, who has an authentic Russian accent. My character\u2019s voice gives him the past history as Piotr Rasputin once you hear him speak. This made him the most authentic to the original idea of the comic book character.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n
