According to reports in the US a female stunt driver has been tragically killed after a stunt manoeuvre went wrong during the filming of Deadpool 2.

Reports say the young woman was killed during a daring motorcycle sequence that went fatally wrong.

It is believed the stunt woman smashed through the window of Shaw Tower in downtown Vancouver whilst filming on Ryan Reynold’s sequel to the smash hit movie.

A spokesperson for Vancouver police say they are currently investigating the incident but they say they are treating the incident as a freak accident.

Reynolds received widespread critical acclaim last year for his portrayal of the foul mouthed anti-hero, which brought huge success to 20th Century FOX’s X-Men franchise.

The sequel is set to be released in 2018.
