With recent rumors about an R-rated Deadpool animated series in the works, we may get to see Ryan Reynolds voice the comedic antihero in the future. Before the show arrives at any streaming service, Marvel fans can enjoy a newly-released adidas Ultra Boost 5.0 DNA that appears to share Deadpool’s color scheme.

The pair indulges in Scarlet Primeknit uppers that also weave in some Core Black. The two colors meet again on the TPU lace cages, which exhibits a red-to-black gradient effect. To balance out the primarily red body, the supportive heel counter and Boost foam midsole are both tinted black. Underfoot, Continental™ Rubber delivers the traction needed to stop any villain dead in their tracks. A satin-like sockliner and branding details on the heel counter and tongue complete the two-toned offering.
