If you thought Deadpool 2 would adopt a more conventional marketing campaign than its predecessor, think again. A new teaser trailer for the upcoming sequel has just arrived, featuring the Merc With the Mouth (Ryan Reynolds) doing his best Bob Ross impression, and a flurry of new footage.
There’s very little in the way of actual film footage here, but we do catch glimpses of Domino (Zazie Beets), Vanessa (Morena Baccarin) and Negasonic Teenage Warhead (Brianna Hildrebrand, sporting a new hairstyle). Arguably even more humorous than this clip is the film’s “official” synopsis:
After surviving a near fatal bovine attack, a disfigured cafeteria chef (Wade Wilson) struggles to fulfill his dream of becoming Mayberry’s hottest bartender while also learning to cope with his lost sense of taste. Searching to regain his spice for life, as well as a flux capacitor, Wade must battle ninjas, the yakuza, and a pack of sexually aggressive canines, as he journeys around the world to discover the importance of family, friendship, and flavor – finding a new taste for adventure and earning the coveted coffee mug title of World’s Best Lover.
Directed by David Leitch (Atomic Blonde) and also starring Josh Brolin, T.J. Miller and Julian Dennison, Deadpool 2 is slated to hit theaters on June 1, 2018.
