Disney just bought Fox for $52 billion and now owns, among other things, the Merc with the Mouth. Ryan Reynolds quickly shared a photo of Deadpool being escorted from the Disneyland premises with the caption "Apparently you can't blow the Matterhorn."

Deadpool is known for his unsavory comments and a formidable level of snark that brought the 2016 film an R rating (not to mention blockbuster success).

A top reply to the tweet notes that Deadpool's language doesn't fit with Disney's wholesome, family-friendly branding, a fact of which Reynolds is no doubt aware. But Deadpool can't be watered down, as his long journey to the big screen would suggest, being owned by Disney won't affect the film on that level.

Reynolds has been teasing Deadpool 2 by posing in front of incongruous locations, his lackadaisical hero lounging outside beautiful edifices like the X-Men mansion and now Disneyland castle (per the terms of the merger, Disney also owns X-Men, which makes for some interesting possibilities).

Deadpool 2 is due in theaters 2018.
