'Zombieland' screenwriters to pen 'Deadpool'

Following the success of "X-Men Origins: Wolverine," 20th Century Fox has decided it would be a great idea to develop a "Deadpool" spinoff. Ryan Reynolds is already on board to reprise his role as Wade Wilson, and now the project has two writers!

According to Variety, Fox has hired "Zombieland" scribes Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick to write the script. The trade says they will also keep the tone of the flick close to that of "Zombieland," a horror comedy I absolutely loved. It's not clear when the project will hit production.

Reynolds, the dude from "The Proposal," will soon be seen in "Buried." He is also getting ready to shoot "Green Lantern." Reese and Wernick also penned the upcoming film "Earth vs. Moon." It looks like the two will also return for the "Zombieland" sequel.
