Deadpool Sides With Captain America For Civil War, Iron Man Doesn’t Think It’ll Last

Over the weekend, an unlikely ally dished out some congratulations to Deadpool star Ryan Reynolds and the film’s surprising success with Captain America himself, Chris Evans, taking to Twitter with some kind words. Reynolds responded in kind, but Robert Downey Jr. noticed their exchange and he has some concerns. Find out what unfolded on Twitter below.
Here’s the initial tweet of the Chris Evans Deadpool love praising Ryan Reynolds and the movie:
Wow…..Deadpool was AWESOME! Well done @VancityReynolds #killedit #maximumeffort

However, this choice in Deadpool’s allegiance didn’t go unnoticed by the opposition. Robert Downey Jr. took to Twitter to call out Deadpool on his choice in allies for Civil War, and he doesn’t think the Merc with a Mouth is going to get along with Captain America after he hears all that salty language:
.@VancityReynolds Et tu, D-pool? Gimme a shout when Rogers boots you out for “cussing”!

Kudos to Downey for making a great reference to what is probably the best recurring joke in The Avengers: Age of Ultron and giving us all something to have a good laugh at.
