Deadpool & Wolverine's world tour makes a splash in Seoul

The worldwide promotional tour for Marvel Studios' latest summer superhero blockbuster, Deadpool & Wolverine, continued to travel through Asia following Tuesday's Shanghai launch with its marquee stars, Ryan Reynolds (Wade Wilson/Deadpool/co-writer/producer) and Hugh Jackman (Logan/Wolverine) making a couple of appearances in Seoul, South Korea over the last two days. They were first joined by director/co-writer/producer Shawn Levy for a large fan event at Jangchung Arena on Thursday, July 4, where all three greeted fans and appeared on stage to introduce a special sneak peek. The following day, Friday, July 5, Reynolds and Jackman then made a splash -- quite literally -- at the KINTEX Exhibition Center 2 for an on-stage appearance at Waterbomb Festival, a rather unique concert event that mixes music and, yes, soaking everyone with water via water guns and various spray apparatuses. The duo gleefully partook in the aquatic antics, leaving the stage in clothes as drenched as their and the audience's spirits were energized. Video highlights of both events can be viewed below.

Ryan Reynolds & Hugh Jackman kick off the Deadpool & Wolverine world tour in Shanghai

After the dual labor strikes of last summer and fall put a damper on the typical promotional rollout for their last theatrical feature, the underrated, ultimately box office underachieving The Marvels, Marvel Studios is back doing its traditional worldwide talent press tour in support of what is arguably one of their most anticipated releases of all time, the milestone mutant + Marvel Cinematic Universe merger movie Deadpool & Wolverine. The longtime portrayers of the title characters themselves, star/co-writer/producer Ryan Reynolds and star Hugh Jackman, along with their previous The Adam Project / Free Guy / Real Steel collaborator, director/co-writer/producer Shawn Levy, kicked off the nearly month-long campaign on Tuesday, July 2, at the Shanghai Film Art Centre. Beyond just being the first stop on the tour, this appearance, highlights of which can be seen in the video below, is also significant in marking the first time an installment of the raucous and raunchy Deadpool series will be releasing in Chinese cinemas.
