It’s been quiet about the next Deadpool movie for a long time. But now Ryan Reynolds is speaking personally. He not only announces a release date, but also promises the return of a true superhero legend.
Deadpool 3 brings back Wolverine
With Deadpool 3, the superhero with the sharp tongue finally officially joins the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But that is not enough. Ryan Reynolds announced in an update video that too another superhero will make his MCU debut: It’s none other than Hugh Jackman as Wolverine.
However, fans still have to be patient. Deadpool 3 is supposed to only appear on September 06, 2024. However, it is fairly certain that Deadpool will not lose its bite despite being integrated into the more family-friendly MCU. Marvel boss Kevin Feige has already indicated that an R rating, i.e. an age rating from 17 years in the USA, is being targeted again. So there shouldn’t be a lack of violence and vulgar sayings.
Hugh Jackman was actually done with Wolverine
Deadpool 3 isn’t the first film to feature Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool and Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. In X-Men Origins: Wolverine, released in 2009, the two were already able to compete against each other. The decision, Stitching up Deadpool’s mouth and making it a mute monster didn’t sit well with fans, though. Even Reynolds makes fun of his role there to this day.
In 2017, Jackman wanted them Wolverine claws with Logan actually hang up. Apparently, this decision was not as final as thought at the time. In the meantime, however, Disney has also bought 21st Century Fox, which previously owned the rights to the X-Men. As a result, Deadpool 3 now has many new possibilities.
The Marvel Universe is also growing outside of the movies. During the D23 fan event, Disney presented some new superhero-themed games. A newly announced one is particularly interesting Game in World War II around Captain America and Black Panther.
