Actor and screenwriter, Ryan Reynolds, showed off a new, bubblegum pink version of his Deadpool costume on Twitter, auctioning off the iconic costume to raise money in the fight against cancer for the nonprofit "Fuck Cancer" through an Omaze campaign.
In a "Special Message from Deadpool," Reynolds explained the pink suit was for the "world to see that I have a big old heart-on. That's heart with a 't' for my new obsession, pink — the color, not the pop singer. Personally I'm more of a Celine kind of guy."
Suit for sale. Worn once. Made lovingly with over 10,000 individually selected pink gummi bears. https://t.co/CXZLqRsyu9pic.twitter.com/ZbdtIERPmQ

Participants can donate anywhere from $10 to $5,000 to the cause for a chance to win the pink Deadpool suit. Donations of over $1,000 or more include other gifts, such as a signed movie poster, a signed DVD, or even personalized voicemail message recorded by Reynolds in his Deadpool character. (There's nothing to lose by donating!)
Reynolds even offered a number of options as to what the winner can do with the suit should he or she be selected, including adding it to your "S&M dungeon" or "nailing it to a post in order to scare off birds, children and the elderly."
The actor ends the video saying, "this is one fight where everyone can be a hero, no superpowers, capes or lame CG costumes needed — just your money," said Reynolds. "Seriously, we need that — these suits aren't cheap."
The deadline to enter the Deadpool suit drawing is May 21, 2018 at 11:59pm PST.
