Hi brandocamandoSM
Welcome to the forum!
When sending anything out you have to be prepared to not get it back - so you should only send the poster if you feel comfortable enough with the fact that you may not ever see it again. If you don't want to risk losing it, you might want to hold on to it and see if you can get it signed in person (e.g. at a movie premiere).
Plus, the other issue with sending such a large item is that you also have to be prepared to pay postage costs to send the poster to the celebrity, and to have it returned. As it is such a large poster, the postage costs will be fairly high both ways. You then also have to pay for the tubes to send the poster in. It can be really costly especially if you may never see it again.
Also, before you send out your poster - do a bit of research to see whether the celebrity you want to write to does respond in the first place. This may help if you do want to send out your request, as you don't want to send something to someone who doesn't respond.
If I was in your postion, I probably wouldn't send such a large item. I would hold onto large or valuable items to try and get signed in person ... if there's ever a chance to meet them
Anyway, good luck!
