If nothing else, the MCU's Deadpool 3 will be “the most Deadpool movie in the history of Deadpool,” at least according to Ryan Reynolds.

Speaking to Empire for their new cover story, Reynolds made the claim. Perhaps he is attempting to give fans faith that his character's entry into the Disney-owned MCU won't change anything. Empire notes that “ultra-violence, f-bombs galore, and all kinds of meta mayhem” are in store for the film.

The film will feature Deadpool (Reynolds) being recruited by the Time Variance Authority's (TVA) Paradox (Matthew Macfadyen). This mission includes him being shown the Sacred Timeline, which intrigues him. “He learns soon thereafter that it's not quite as simple an offer as he thought it was,” Kevin Feige told Empire. “And the stakes are universe-sized.”

He will be teaming with Hugh Jackman's Wolverine in the film. This isn't the same one fans saw die at the end of James Mangold's 2017 film, Logan, though. Reynolds discussed the bond he shares with Jackman after the film.

“As much as I take the ever-loving f**king piss out of him each and every day, underneath this is a genuine love story,” Reynolds said. “As adversarial as we are in the movie, the undercurrent is one of real love.

“Getting to spend time with my two closest friends, and waking up in the morning with a passionate devotion to say something so horrendous that they fall over laughing is a gift,” he continued.

What is Deadpool 3? 

Deadpool & Wolverine with Easter Eggs.

Deadpool 3 is the thirty-fourth MCU film and the lone 2024 feature film release. Shawn Levy will direct the film. He co-wrote the script with Reynolds, Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick, and Zeb Wells.

Previously, Levy had worked with his two stars. He directed Jackman in 2011's Real Steel. More recently, Levy began working with Reynolds. He first directed him in Free Guy before they teamed up again for The Adam Project.

Outside of the MCU film, Levy is known for his roles in the Stranger Things and Night at the Museum franchises. He also directed Cheaper by the Dozen, The Pink Panther, and Date Night.

Aside from Reynolds and Jackman, Emma Corrin (The Crown), Morena Baccarin, Rob Delaney, Leslie Uggams, and Karan Soni will also star in the film. Plenty of returns are being staged in the film. While none trump Jackman's as Wolverine, Deadpool 3 will also feature the return of Jennifer Garner as Elektra.

She previously played the part in 2003's Daredevil with Ben Affleck. Two years later, Garner got her own solo film as Elektra. She previously worked with Levy and Reynolds on The Adam Project.

Ryan Reynolds is widely associated with his part in the Deadpool franchise. He had made his debut in the part in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, however, that iteration quickly died. In 2016, he got a proper turn as Deadpool and it took off.

The first two Deadpool films have both grossed over $780 million. The MCU is likely hoping to see that success carry over to the third film. They are searching for a big winner after a disappointing 2023 slate. This is the first Deadpool film to be released as a part of the MCU after Disney's acquisition of 20th Century Fox.
