Colossus may be in the upcoming Deadpool movie but a new actor will be playing the armored X-Man.

The Fox spinoff starring “The Merc With A Mouth” will include the fan-favorite X-Man according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Daniel Cudmore revealed today he will not be playing Colossus again via Twitter.

Ryan Reynolds is playing Wade Wilson after an appearance in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Tim Miller is directing. THR story says Gina Carano is playing a mutant named Angel Dust.

The recasting of Colossus could mean producers will use a younger version of the character. Bryan Singer recast younger actors to play teen versions of Jean Grey, Scott Summers and Storm for X-Men: Apocalypse.

There no official word on the inclusion of recasting of any X-Man for the spinoff.

Deadpool is scheduled for February 16, 2016.
