Canadian star Ryan Reynolds' superhero alter-ego has outed himself as a Nickelback defender in a new trailer for "Once Upon A Deadpool." When Savage takes a swipe at Nickelback, Reynolds' Deadpool character rises to the defence of the Alberta rock group that's often the punchline of jokes. Savage sticks to his guns, bashing Nickelback's music as "overproduced, formulaic, ear-garbage." Nickelback responded to the trailer with a riff on the song's lyrics, tweeting that it's "not like (Reynolds) to say sorry, we've been waiting on a different (Deadpool) story." "Once Upon A Deadpool" is a PG-13-rated version of 2018's R-rated box office hit, "Deadpool 2."
