DC Claps Back at Ryan Reynolds’ 'Deadpool' Shade by Reminding Him of ‘Green Lantern’ by Complex News

The final Deadpool 2 trailer included a jab at the DC Extended Universe movies. "You're no fucking hero. You're just a clown, dressed up as a sex toy," his foe Cable says. "So dark, you sure you're not from the DC Universe?" Deadpool replies, poking fun at the DCEU's generally dour tone. Now, DC is firing back through the Twitter page for the upcoming film, Teen Titans Go! To the Movies, by reminding Reynolds' of his own DC past. "Hey @VancityReynolds, caught your new @deadpoolmovie trailer. Never forget - before you became a @Marvel character, you were a part of the @DCComics universe," read the tweet, referencing Reynolds' role as Green Lantern in the 2011 film. It was also accompanied by a clever GIF of the other Green Lantern, John Stewart. "There was a Green Lantern movie...but we don't talk about that," he says. Ouch.
