What we learned this week: “Deadpool 2: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack” will be released May 18, same day as the film. In the run-up to the movie and album, the official video for the new Celine Dion song “Ashes” was released on YouTube on Thursday.

The film’s soundtrack was recorded at Studio at the Palms, under the stewardship of bonafide rock star Zoe Thrall. The clip was filmed at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace. The film’s director, David Leitch, also headed up the video recording, which centered on Dion singing while bathed in white light. Deadpool himself makes an appearance, too.





The clip takes a jarring, and laughable, turn near the end. As Dion promises, “You’ll be laughing your ‘ashes’ off!”

Dion is back, live and in person, at the Colosseum on May 22.
