Gina Carano who is playing Angel Dust confirmed recently on Twitter that actor Andre Tricoteux will indeed be playing Colossus in “Deadpool.” She hit him up the other day to let him know he’s “”the best Colossus a person could ask for.”

Colussus has been played on the big screen before by Daniel Cudmore who was featured in three of the X-Men films, but it looks like they’re going with a different take this time around. You can see some video of Andre filming a scene with Ryan Reynolds below but be aware that this is just raw footage so he doesn’t look very Colussus like due to the lack of CGI.
