With a picture showing Deadpool’s supposed rejection letter from The Avengers — printed on Stark Industries letterhead, no less — Reynolds noted, “From a guy who never knows when to quit, I’m glad you guys never did. Congrats #Avengers.”

Oh, and the letter regarding ‘Pool’s eagerness to join Earth’s Mightiest Heroes? It reads, “No. Absolutely not. Go bother Professor X,” the latter, the leader of the X-Men group.

The message adds, for good measure, another. “No.”

Marvel Studios is owned by ABC News parent company Disney.
