In his caption, the actor gave profuse thanks to the costume department for their hard work on the film. He said,
"The costume department on #DeadpoolAndWolverine was second to none. I can't think of a more stressful line of work on a film like this. SO. MANY. COSTUMES. And prototypes. And no room for error. The work they do isn't just design and fabrication, it's engineering. These suits function as beautifully as they look. Sure it takes over an hour to pee, but the suit has saved me from more injuries than I can count."
Reynolds emphasized that the journey of the supersuit started and remains with Russ Shinkle and his crew, saying:
"Huge thanks to tireless geniuses: Graham Churchyard, Mayes Rubio and Billy Lawless. Massive appreciation and awe to Ivo Coveny for making a NicePool suit (and many others, including 2099!!!!) beyond anyone's wildest dreams and expectation."
He also thanked all the guys behind the scenes at Pinewood Studios and beyond:
"And all my love, appreciation and thanks to the giant team behind the scenes at Pinewood and beyond working so hard to create, fix, pivot, change, patch and adjust what must feel like a thousand different supersuits every single day… what a team of heroes. You kept the wheels on the bus."
