Ryan Reynolds, or as some of you might know him as Wade Wilson in Deadpool, gave kudos to the Avengers on their record breaking opening weekend.

The congratulatory post was perfect.

A letter dating back to April 2012, was one of rejection from Tony Stark (Ironman) when Deadpool requested he be a part of the Avengers.

The letter reads “Re: Joining the Avengers. No. Absolutely not. Go bother Prof X. No” Check it out below.

Avengers: Infiniy War was just released April 26 and made $39 million in ticket sales opening night alone. It swiftly passed the record set recently by Black Panther, which managed $25.2 million opening night. After the first two days, Infinity War was at $95 million and rising.

Unfortunately, a Marvel movie has yet to pass the numbers set by 2015’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the overall biggest Thursday opening ever taking $57 million.

It's really no surprise that Infinity War is having so much success in the box office. According to Comic Book Movie, the film will be Marvel's first two-part film that will better introduce the newest villain—Thanos (Josh Brolin). To combat the devastation that he will surely bring, directors Joe and Anthony Russo shared a cast of 67 characters who will be making their appearance.
