Deadpool wants you to check-in with your doctor before you buy his movie
If you're on the Deadpool marketing team you don't do anything by the book, whether it's a poster, a billboard...or a promo for the Blu-Ray. Case in point; Ryan Reynolds debuted a typically irrevent ad for Deadpool's upcoming home entertainment release which goes out of its way to sell us more than just a DVD. Check it out below...

So according to this spot, "if you experience hair loss, skin sores, and irritability… you may actually be Deadpool". Good to know...
Deadpool 2 is at least 18 months away, so this may be one of the last bits of marketing we'll get for a while. Enjoy it while you can!
Directed by Tim Miller and starring Ryan Reynolds, Morena Baccarin, Ed Skrein, T.J. Miller and Gina Carano, Deadpool is released on DVD and Blu-Ray on May 10, 2016 in the US and June 13, 2016 in the UK.
