The news of the confirmed 'Deadpool' movie is still music to a Marvel's fans ears, but there is still a lot of work to be put into its production.

Along with the announcement of the movie, fans were also delighted to hear that Ryan Reynolds would be reprising the role as the comical superhero. The leaked test footage also revealed how impressive the project could come out looking.

However the search for the female lead in the film has gotten underway. 20^th Century Fox has made test deals with a couple of actresses they feel are fit for the role including:

"Morena Baccarin, who played the long-suffering wife of POW-turned-terrorist Brody in Showtime's Homeland and who also starred in V; Taylor Schilling, from Orange Is The New Black and who was just seen at Sundance in The Overnight; Crystal Reed from Teen Wolf and Crush; and Rebecca Rittenhouse, who made a splash in the Fox series The Red Band Society," writes Deadline.

Ryan Reynold's 'Deadpool' will be based off of his first appearance in 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine'. He's known originally as Wade Wilson and undergoes a military experiment that gives him superior healing capabilities, much like what Wolverine was imbued with.

"He comes away with the ability to heal quickly - but for the price of being indestructible, he is rendered severely scarred. His acerbic attitude remains, though, earning him the nickname 'The Merc with a Mouth'. Curiously, they quieted him, but that isn't taking advantage of Reynolds' quick wit. There are opportunities for a wise-cracking indestructible weapon who could take out a brigade of terrorists merely by blowing himself up in their midst," writes Deadline.

'Deadpool' is set for release in February 2016, and its production begins in March.
