In classic fourth wall breaking fashion, Ryan Reynolds hid a major Marvel tease in the special gray Deadpool costume he wore to SDCC.
Reynolds crashed Marvel's Hall H panel in the get up and could also be seen roaming around the convention.
On Twitter, he shared the Pantone color swatch for the suit, and it's titled Jean Grey.

Jean Grey, of course, is a member of the X-Men, and heavy speculation links Sadie Sink's mystery Spider-Man: Brand New Day character to the mutant. Is this Reynolds's irreverent way of teasing the casting? It certainly seems so.
Sink makes her MCU debut in the Spidey movie, and it seems her role might have been spoiled at the premiere – after over a year of total secrecy.
First reactions to the fourth MCU Spidey movie are overwhelmingly positive, and our own Spider-Man: Brand New Day review awards the film a stellar four stars. "Taking Spidey back to web-slinging basics, Tom Holland's fourth solo outing as Spider-Man is a blast, with personal stakes to match its evolved spectacle. It's the Multiverse Saga's best movie… at least until Doomsday," it reads.
As for Deadpool, Reynolds has previously indicated that Deadpool 4 is in the works, though nothing has been officially announced.
"There's a few really deep cuts that are missing from the movies, I think there's a few deep cuts missing from some of the comics," Reynolds said, before getting into specifics.
"There's certainly some stuff that I love that Fabian [Nicieza] wrote that is incredible. Gerry Duggan is a friend and an incredible comic book writer. There's stuff coming, there eventually will be another Deadpool film."
Spider-Man: Brand New Day arrives this July 29 in the UK and July 31 in the US. In the meantime, check out our guide on how to watch the Marvel movies in order to get up to speed.
