Hollywood studio 20th Century Fox has added a yet untitled "Deadpool" movie to its 2018 slate.
The move is a part of a few changes to the studio's release calendar, including pushing back Alita: Battle Angel and Dark Phoenix, reports hollywoodreporter.com.
The "Deadpool" movie will open in wide release on December 21.
Robert Rodriguez's "Alita: Battle Angel" will move from December 21 to February 14, 2019 and Dark Phoenix, the next X-Men installment, moves from February 14, 2019 to June 7, 2019.
The studio has also moved its long-in-development X-Men spinoff Gambit, from June 7, 2019 to March 13, 2020.
According to hollywoodreporter.com, the Deadpool film could be a kid-friendly re-release of "Deadpool 2".
The release date changes come as the pending Disney/Fox merger is expected to close in 2019, which will give Disney's Marvel Studios the rights to the X-Men.
