ADeadpoolandThe Walking Deadcrossover would do amazing numbers, but it looks like the closest thing we’ll get to that are a fewDeadpool 2TV spots that aired after the season premiere ofFear the Walking Dead.
Two of the bloodiest franchises in movies and TV combined their might on Sunday night.Deadpool 2released a string of TV spots duringTalking Dead, the live TV aftershow that dissected the season premiere of theWalking Deadspin-off,Fear the Walking Dead.
But it was more than just cross-promotional synergy: the spots were hyped up by none other than Deadpool himself, with the Merc with a Mouthcreating a posterand even a hashtag to promote the string of TV spots. And now I can’t stop thinking about an actual #WalkingDeadpool crossover.
