Ryan Reynolds Wants A 'Deadpool'/'Guardians Of The Galaxy' Crossover

The Marvel Universe is absolutely first-class at pulling off a crossover - Avengers: Infinity War proved that once again, when it featured, well, just about every Marvel character ever to grace the screen.

However, now it looks as though Deadpool actor Ryan Reynolds and Guardians of the Galaxy writer and director James Gunn are both kinda up for a crossover.

Taking to Twitter, James commented to say he had just seen, and 'loved' Deadpool 2, while thanking Ryan for his role.

After thanking him for his kind words, Ryan wrote, 'crossover?'

And it looks like James is on-board, replying, "Yes, please."

I mean, on the face of it this is just a harmless interaction on the Internet, but surely Ryan knows better than to try and make a throwaway comment on Twitter? Now you've said it, pal, we, the people, demand a Deadpool/Guardians of the Galaxy crossover.

For the time being Fox owns the rights to Deadpool, X-Men and Fantastic Four but with Disney currently looking to buy out Fox the crossover could be closer than ever - and now we have Deadpool himself (OK, Ryan) up for it, it's only a matter of time, right?

Deadpool 2 had an absolute stormer of a release weekend taking an estimated $125 million (£92,791,875) over the course the weekend, the movie not only knocked Avengers: Inifinity War from the top spot, but also broke the record for the highest-grossing opening day for an R-rated movie, raking in $53.3m (£39.5m) on Friday.
