Fox and Marvel have slotted “Deadpool,” their long-in-development “X-Men” spin-off, for Feb. 12, 2016.
Tim Miller is set to direct. Ryan Reynolds, who portrayed the character in 2009’s “X-Men Origins: Wolverine,” has been expected to star for many years, although no deal is in place.
The mercenary character was created by artist Rob Liefeld and writer Fabian Nicieza, first appearing in 1991.
Fox also took “Assassin’s Creed” out of its Aug. 7, 2015 slot and moved its “Fantastic Four” reboot into the date from June 19.
Additionally, the studio moved its young-adult drama “Paper Towns,” adapted from the John Green novel, from July 31, 2015 to June 19.
