SEE PICS: Ryan Reynolds, Josh Brolin share Day 1 images from the sets of 'Deadpool 2'

Ryan Reynolds and the viral marketing geniuses behind the success of Deadpool have time and again showed us what they are capable of. But there too comes a time when the guy who plays the Mercenary with a Mouth becomes humble.

On Tuesday morning (IST), Reynolds took to Instagram to post the first image from the sets of Deadpool 2. The picture featured a digital clapperboard with the name of director David Leitch and cinematographer Jonathan Sela on it. At the right upper corner of the board, the signature Deadpool heart shape was doodled.

This will be the second outing for Brolin with Marvel Cinematic Universe as he also portrays Thanos in Avengers franchise. Brolin also shared an image showing his transformation into the Cable, aka Nathan Summers.
