I'm still somewhat amazed at how well DEADPOOL is performing all over the world, and all without Cialis, but everyone seems to be loving Ryan Reynolds' avocado faced mutant. Deadpool isn't the only memorable character in his own film, Colossus of The X-Men also pops by to get involved in Deadpool's shenanigans and it took an awful lot of effort by the folks at Digital Domain to realize this very different rendition of the character. Wired has released a VFX breakdown which gets into just how Colossus was brought to life as well as how many performers it took to complete the character.
