It’s not quite a DC and Marvel crossover, but it’s close enough: a new promo supporting the SickKids hospital features Ryan Reynolds’ return as Deadpool, along with Lynda Carter.
In the minute and a half video, Deadpool and Kidpool (Inez Reynolds) are on a rooftop with a sleigh, maybe killing Santa’s reindeer (unclear), and decide to do something good for a change. Specifically, Deadpool wants to help SickKids, a hospital for sick children associated with the University of Toronto. But Deadpool and Kidpool can’t do it, so enter Lynda Carter.
And what does Lynda Carter transform into? Well, not Wonder Woman, unfortunately. “Who did this?” Carter asks once she sees the ugly Christmas sweater she’s wearing. “The DC lawyers, I knew it,” quips Deadpool.
“That’s one ugly sweater,” says Kidpool.
Adds Deadpool, “Yeah, it’s probably the same guy that got Cavill, and that other Batman.”
Anyway, it’s all for a good cause, as mentioned. As the end of the video notes, Reynolds and Blake Lively will match all donations to SickKids made by December 24, up to $500,000. And it’s likely this isn’t the last promo, either, as Reynolds posted a pic of himself in costume hanging out with Leslie Uggams, who plays Blind Al, also around Christmas. So stay tuned for (potentially) more holiday fun.
