Deadpool is definitely hot property at the moment and it looks like the stars of Captain America: Civil War want to make sure he joins their teams. Chris Evans, who plays Steve Rogers in the film, has already tried to recruit Ryan Reynolds to Team Captain America. However, Robert Downey Jr. aka Tony Stark is also trying to get Wade Wilson to be a part of Team Iron Man!
Evans previously congratulated Reynolds in a tweet stating that "Deadpool was AWESOME!" and added the hashtags "#killedit" and "#maximumeffort." In response, Reynolds had tweeted his support for Evans' character in the highly anticipated Civil War, where Captain America will go up against Iron Man.
Wow.....Deadpool was AWESOME! Well done @VancityReynolds #killedit #maximumeffort

However, it looks like Downey isn't going to let Evans win this particular war. The Sherlock Holmes actor immediately tweeted his own invitation for Reynolds, writing "Gimme a shout when Rogers boots you out for 'cussing!'"
.@VancityReynolds Et tu, D-pool? Gimme a shout when Rogers boots you out for "cussing"!

The tweet was a direct reference to Captain America calling out Iron Man on his language in Avengers: Age of Ultron as well as Deadpool's salty dialogue in his own film. Nevertheless, Evans himself seems unfazed by the "language," as based on his surprising response to Downey.
@RobertDowneyJr @VancityReynolds Bullsh*t!! The cussing was my favorite part! (just don't tell my alter ego....or Kevin Feige....or my mom) — Chris Evans (@ChrisEvans) February 21, 2016
Evans was not the only one praising Reynolds for the success of Deadpool in its second week at the box office. Ghostbusters director Paul Feig also explained on Twitter why Deadpool is still on top, saying, "It's an effing amazing movie."
"'Deadpool', The Blockbuster Whose Success No One Can Explain" - I can explain it. It's an effing amazing movie. https://t.co/ohKKhzHwXm

In a followup tweet, he even compared the film to one of his own works.
"To me, it's the superhero 'This Is The End.' Game changing comedy that creates its own original tone & goes for it," Feig wrote.
Deadpool still tops the domestic box office in its second week, adding $55 million to its earnings.
Captain America: Civil War is directed by Anthony and Joe Russo and will premiere on May 3.
