“Hunt for the Wilderpeople” breakout Julian Dennison joins DEADPOOL 2 cast.

DEADPOOL 2 started production early this week in Vancouver and star Ryan Reynolds has taken to his instagram to announce a new addition to the film’s cast.

“Giving Julian Dennison a warm 💀💩L welcome as we stare off into our beautiful future together,” he wrote.

14 year old Dennison is a New Zealand actor, who debuted in the 2013 film “Shopping,” for which he won the New Zealand Film Award for Best Supporting Actor. He then gained wide acclaim with his hilarious breakout role in “Hunt For The Wilderpeople.”

“Deadpool” 2 is being directed by David Leitch with Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick returning as writers. It also stars Josh Brolin as Cable, Zazie Beetz as Domino, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Stefan Kapicic as Colossus, Leslie Uggams as Blind Al, Karan Soni as Dopinder with Jack Kesy as the villain (potentially Black Tom Cassidy) and Shioli Kutsuna is an unknown role.

The highly anticipated film comes to theaters on June 1, 2018.
