DEADPOOL Movie: Multiple Petitions and Campaigns Try to Put Pressure on Fox to Green Light Production
Things have quieted down a bit after test footage for a Deadpool movie, starring Ryan Reynolds, leaked online right after Comic-Con 2014 but there is still a push to put pressure on 20th Century Fox to green light the solo film.
Over on Change.org there is a petition by fans to green light a Deadpool movie and it has just over 800 people who have signed it so far. Click here to sign that petition. Then, on iPetitions.com, there is another fan campaign, however, there hasn't been much of a social media push behind this campaign. You can click here to check it out.
Finally, and what could be the biggest push to get Fox to green light a Deadpool solo movie, Deadpool screenwriter Rhett Reese has posted something to his Twitter account. Reese wants fans to retweet his tweet to show Fox that fans would go and buy a ticket to a Deadpool movie. His tweet can be seen below.
Team Pool needs your official 'vote' of support. Let's break the internet. RETWEET if you would buy a ticket to the DEADPOOL MOVIE.

Quick Editor Note: If you are on Twitter and you love Deadpool, get your butt logged in and retweet Reese's tweet right now!
Will any of this make a difference in the eyes of Fox executives? This is uncertain. But if you don't partake in any of this then you'll never get a chance to see a Deadpool movie anyway.
