Well, the Deadpool 2 marketing extravaganza has begun in style today…
The first poster from 20th Century Fox is official here and it’s a nice sent up of Norman Rockwell’s Thanksgiving painting, Freedom From Want (check it out here) and features Deadpool, Cable, Domino, Colossus, Weasel and Dopinder all gathered around for a nice healthy piece of turkey dinner:

On top of that, we also go another unexpected piece of marketing as Deadpool appeared on the cover of Good Housekeepingthis month… just in time for the Thanksgiving and Christmas recipes and goodies.
The issue is being handed out across the US – sorry UK and world fans, we get screwed again – and you can see it below, featuring recipes for “D’s Spiced Nuts” and “Creamy Clam Skinny Dip,” you know you’re curious… we sure are.

Jane Francisco, Editor in Chief of Good Housekeeping said of the issue: “Deadpool’s persistence to be in Good Housekeeping was impressive – initially we had no idea who he was, let alone that he was a fan of the magazine. But after repeated attempts to ignore his… passion… we came to a compromise. He could appear in one issue, if he promised to stop leaving care packages at our editors’ homes and agreed to maintain a 50-foot distance from the Good Housekeeping offices and our staff.”
“After years of weekly emails and countless carrier pigeons, Good Housekeeping finally returned my calls,” says Deadpool. “And while it’s a dream come true, apparently we have vastly different opinions on the definition of a ‘holiday spread’…”
We’re guessing we’ll see a teaser/trailer on Thanksgiving, November 23rd given what we’re seeing here.
