By the point it arrives in theaters, it should have been six years between Deadpool 2 and Deadpool 3. The delay is nearly fully the studio’s fault; Deadpool 2’s distributor, twentieth Century Fox, was acquired by Disney shortly after the discharge of Deadpool 2. And whereas Disney wished Fox partly to regain the movie rights to the X-Males franchise, they’ve but to launch a single film or TV present centered on any mutants within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. At the least as scheduled proper now, Deadpool 3 — which remains to be nearly two years away — would be the first X-film from Marvel.

However Deadpool 3 received’t simply be a Deadpool film; the movie will co-star Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, who’s most likely the one X-Males film character extra fashionable than Ryan Reynolds’ wise-cracking mercenary. We nonetheless don’t know the way Deadpool and Logan will meet, or how Wolverine might be alive once more after the occasions of 2017’s Logan. However we do know that nevertheless they wind up collectively, Deadpool and Wolverine will not be buddies on this movie.

As Jackman instructed the Empire Movie Podcast…

10 being actually shut, zero being the truth, we’re zero, we’re opposites, hate one another. I am simply speaking from my perspective, [Logan’s] annoyed by him, needs to be 1,000,000 miles away from him or needs to punch him within the head. Sadly, he cannot be 1,000,000 miles away from him on this film, so I am most likely going to punch him within the head lots.”

It principally looks like the movie will go for an exaggerated model of the relationship Reynolds and Jackman have on social media, the place they’re consistently ribbing one another and appear inside seconds of getting right into a shouting match — if not an out-and-out combat. Solely within the film their characters will each have therapeutic components, to allow them to actually beat the crap out of one another.

Deadpool 3 is at the moment scheduled to open in theaters on November 8, 2024.
