Fox has announced today that the long rumored Deadpool movie has finally been given a release date. Spurred by the overwhelming reaction to the leaked test footage earlier this year, Deadpool will be hitting American theaters on February 12, 2016. Tim Miller, founder of VFX studio Blur Studio, is set to direct in his feature film debut. Still no word if Ryan Reynolds will return to play the Merc With a Mouth, or if the movie will be shot with an R-rating in mind.
