Deadpool & Wolverine is an upcoming American

Time Variance Authority
(TVA) pulls Deadpool from his quiet life and sets him on a mission with Wolverine that will change the history of the MCU.

Development on a third Deadpool film began at

R rating of the previous films. Wendy Molyneux and Lizzie Molyneux-Logelin joined in November 2020 as writers. Reese and Wernick returned from the previous films for rewrites by March 2022, when Levy was hired as director. Jackman decided to reprise his role as Wolverine from Fox's X-Men films in August 2022. Wells, Reynolds, and Levy were confirmed to be contributing to the script by May 2023. Filming began later that month at Pinewood Studios in England, with additional filming in Norfolk and at Bovingdon Film Studios. Production was suspended in July due to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike, but resumed that November and wrapped
in January 2024. The film's title was revealed a month later.

Deadpool & Wolverine is scheduled to be released in the United States on July 26, 2024, as part of Phase Five of the MCU.

Premise

The

Time Variance Authority (TVA), a bureaucratic organization that exists outside of time and space and monitors the timeline, pulls Wade Wilson / Deadpool from his quiet life and sets him on a mission with Wolverine that will change the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).[1][2]

Cast

  • Ryan Reynolds as Wade Wilson / Deadpool:
    A wisecracking mercenary with accelerated healing but severe scarring over his body after undergoing an experimental regenerative mutation to treat terminal cancer.[3] Writer Rhett Reese described the film as a fish out of water story for Deadpool, who is a lunatic dropped into the "very sane world" of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).[4] Reynolds is also expected to portray a "samurai-based" variant of the character.[5]
  • Hugh Jackman as James "Logan" Howlett / Wolverine:
    A mutant with healing abilities, retractable claws, and an adamantium-infused skeleton.[6] This version of the character is from an alternative universe where he let down the inhabitants.[7] Jackman described Logan and Deadpool as opposites with a "quarreling dynamic" that would frustrate Logan.[8] To prepare for the role, Jackman began a vigorous workout routine which included eating up to 8,000 calories a day.[9] Jackman also appears as the character's alter ego, Patch.[10]
  • Charles Xavier[11]
  • Vanessa:
    Wilson's fiancée.[12][13] Baccarin believed the film would further reinvent Vanessa's relationship with Wilson while maintaining a core element that keeps them together.[14]
  • Rob Delaney as Peter: A member of Wilson's X-Force team[15]
  • Leslie Uggams as Blind Al: Wilson's blind elderly roommate[16]
  • Dopinder: A taxi driver and admirer of Wilson who serves as his de facto chauffeur[16]

Also reprising their roles from the previous Deadpool films are Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, a teenage member of the X-Men with the mutant power to detonate atomic bursts from her body;[19] Stefan Kapičić as the voice of Colossus, a member of the X-Men with the mutant ability to transform his entire body into organic steel;[12] Shioli Kutsuna as Yukio, Negasonic Teenage Warhead's girlfriend and fellow X-Men member;[19] Randal Reeder as Buck;[20] and Lewis Tan as Shatterstar, a member of X-Force.[21]

Some actors also reprise their roles from other

archival footage from Avengers: Infinity War (2018).[18]

Production

Background

After the success of

20th Century Fox began developing two sequels. The third film was set to include the superhero team X-Force.[28] Deadpool director Tim Miller chose not to return for the sequels due to creative differences with star Ryan Reynolds, and David Leitch was hired to direct Deadpool 2 (2018) in November 2016. Fox was looking for another filmmaker to develop the third film.[29] In March 2017, Deadpool and Deadpool 2 co-writer Rhett Reese said X-Force would be introduced in Deadpool 2 and then featured in a planned spin-off film that would launch "something bigger", separate from the third Deadpool film which would be more personal.[30]

When the

Once Upon a Deadpool, a PG-13 version of Deadpool 2, was released at the end of the year. It was watched carefully by Disney and Marvel Studios to see how it might inform their approach to the character in the MCU.[37] While promoting Once Upon a Deadpool, Reynolds confirmed that a third Deadpool film was in development and said it would go in a "completely different direction";[38] Reynolds later revealed that they were planning a road trip film styled after Rashomon (1950) featuring Hugh Jackman's X-Men character James "Logan" Howlett / Wolverine.[39] Jackman had himself envisioned a team-up film with Reynolds inspired by 48 Hrs. (1982) while attending a screening of Deadpool in 2016, despite formally retiring from the role of Wolverine at that time.[40] In March 2019, Disney officially acquired Fox and gained the film rights to several Marvel Comics characters for Marvel Studios, including Deadpool and the X-Men.[41][42] The Marvel-based films that Fox had been developing were placed "on hold".[43]

Development

Josh Brolin revealed in June 2019 that he had discussed his future as Cable with Marvel Studios several times after starring as that character in Deadpool 2. Brolin also portrayed Thanos in the MCU.[44] In October, Zazie Beetz said she would be surprised if she did not reprise her Deadpool 2 role of Domino in a future film.[45] That month, Reese and Wernick said they and Reynolds were taking a "much-needed rest from Deadpool" while they waited to hear from Marvel Studios about the future of the franchise. They confirmed that another Deadpool film would be made, that it would be R-rated like the previous films, and that it would integrate the character with the MCU. Wernick stated that there was never a set pitch for a third Deadpool film between their exhaustion following the completion of Deadpool 2 and the announcement of Fox's acquisition by Disney, with Reese adding that they now had to "land on the right idea and once we do, I think we'll be off to the races". The writers felt there would be more characters available in the MCU to act as foils for Deadpool compared to their restricted options among the characters that Fox had control over for the previous films.[46] At that time, Reynolds revealed that he was meeting with Marvel Studios.[47] In December, Reynolds confirmed that he and "the whole team" were actively developing a Deadpool film at Marvel Studios.[48] During his meetings with the studio, Reynolds urged Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige to include Wolverine in the film but was told that this would not be possible.[40]

Throughout October 2020, Reynolds and Marvel Studios met with potential writers for the next Deadpool film.

Korg, respectively, in a commercial for that film titled Deadpool and Korg React. Deadpool breaks the fourth wall and discusses joining the MCU with Korg in the commercial.[51][52] The next month, Reynolds said he expected filming to begin in 2022,[53] which Feige soon confirmed. Feige added that Marvel Studios had a release timeframe in mind for the film.[54] In November, Beetz and Rob Delaney expressed interest in returning as their Deadpool 2 characters Domino and Peter,[55][56] but Beetz ultimately did not return for the third film.[57] Also in November, Reynolds said they were "plugging away" at the film.[58]

Shawn Levy was revealed to be directing the film in March 2022, having previously directed Reynolds in Free Guy and The Adam Project (2022).[59][60] Levy said filming would not begin until after 2022 due to his busy schedule through the remainder of the year.[61] At the same time, Reynolds confirmed that his production company Maximum Effort would co-produce the film,[62] and Reese and Wernick were hired to rewrite the screenplay.[59][60] The pair said in June that they were excited to use elements of the MCU as a backdrop for the film, and said Disney and Marvel were supportive of the jokes about the MCU they were writing for Deadpool given the success of the previous films. They would not confirm whether they were starting from scratch on the script or just reworking the previous draft by the Molyneux sisters and said answering this question could divulge plot details.[63] Also in June, Raymond Chan was revealed to be the production designer after previously working on the Disney+ MCU television series The Falcon and the Winter Soldier (2021).[64] Feige said in July that the film would be elevated from the first two in a similar way to other third installments of MCU film series, such as Captain America: Civil War (2016), Thor: Ragnarok (2017), and Avengers: Infinity War (2018). He added that it was fun to be working with Reynolds.[65]

Pre-production

After being content with his decision to retire as Wolverine for several years, Jackman had a change of heart in mid-August 2022 and decided that a team-up film with Reynolds "could be so much fun; I'll probably have more fun on that movie than anything I've ever done".

narrative device from Marvel Studios that allowed characters to move around timelines.[67] He reached out to Logan director James Mangold to inform him of the film's story and said Mangold was both enthusiastic about the idea and relieved that Logan would not be interfered with.[8]

Pre-production work had begun by October 2022,[68] when filming was expected to begin in January 2023 in Vancouver,[69] before the film's release date was pushed back to November 8, 2024.[70] Jackman indicated that the film may not be titled Deadpool 3;[40] Reynolds soon referred to it as "The Deadpool/Wolverine film",[71] and Jackman later referred to it as Wolverine and Deadpool.[72] Reynolds said in November that filming would begin just before mid-2023,[73] and Levy confirmed in December that filming was set to begin in May 2023. He said developing the film was one of the most fun creative experiences of his career, citing the film's self-awareness, violence, and foul language.[74] Levy said he did not want to alter the franchise's DNA from the prior films and called the film "raw, audacious, [and] very much R-rated", comparing it to Midnight Run (1988), 48 Hrs., and Planes, Trains and Automobiles (1987).[75] By February 2023, Patrick Stewart, who portrayed Charles Xavier in the X-Men film series and reprised the role in the MCU film Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022), had been approached to potentially make an appearance in the film.[76] Later that month, Emma Corrin joined the cast in a lead villain role. Marvel had been considering Corrin for the role since late 2022, but had to work through scheduling issues with their other commitments before they signed on.[77] Corrin was cast after Levy saw their performance in a stage production of Virginia Woolf's Orlando. Corrin was excited to play a villain in the film as they had not played many villainous roles before.[78] Levy was revealed to be producing the film alongside Feige and Reynolds,[77] through his production company 21 Laps Entertainment,[79] and filming was set to take place in London.[80] X-Men producer Lauren Shuler Donner was also a producer for the film,[81] while Simon Kinberg served as an executive producer after producing the previous Deadpool films and some of the X-Men films.[82][83][84] Kinberg said the film's creative team cared deeply about Logan, Deadpool, and Wolverine, and said the film had been authored by Levy, Reynolds, and Feige.[83]

In March 2023, Jeff Sneider of Above the Line reported that the

Vanessa,[93] and she was confirmed to be cast later that month along with Stefan Kapičić returning to provide the voice of Colossus.[12] The following month, Delaney was confirmed to be reprising his role as Peter from Deadpool 2, when Reynolds and Levy were said to have writing credits on the film.[15] Later in May, Brianna Hildebrand and Shioli Kutsuna were revealed to be reprising their respective roles as Negasonic Teenage Warhead and Yukio.[19]

Filming

final season, since the planned schedules for the two projects were initially expected to overlap.[109][110]

In June, the film's release date was moved forward to May 3, 2024.[111] Filming for a car crash scene took place on location in London in early July 2023.[112] Shortly after, Jennifer Garner was revealed to be appearing in the film as Elektra, after previously portraying a version of that character in the Fox-produced film Daredevil (2003) and its spin-off Elektra (2005);[23] Garner denied her involvement.[113] Filming with Reynolds and Jackman also took place in Norfolk,[114] and at Bovingdon Film Studios,[115] with the production team preferring to shoot on location rather than on soundstages, where possible, to have the film feel grounded and real.[97][75][116] One of these locations included a giant 20th Century Fox logo set piece.[116] Production was suspended on July 14 because of the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike.[117] 35 days of filming, which was halfway through production, were completed prior to the shutdown, with an additional 35 days left of principal photography.[118][75] Filming was set to resume following the conclusion of the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.[75] Levy and Reynolds were able to edit what had already been shot and begin work on the visual effects,[119][120] though they had not prioritized filming major visual effects sequences before the strike.[118] Prior to the strike, Baccarin had completed filming all of her scenes,[13] and Levy shot a sequence which he likened to the lightsaber duel between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader in Return of the Jedi (1983), inspiring the film's stunt team to look to that scene's blocking, tempo, and framing for their scene.[121] Levy said some of the casting rumors surrounding the film were true but others were not,[97] such as Taylor Swift making a cameo appearance as Dazzler.[119] Soni said there were several cameo appearances that were intended to be a surprise for the audience,[122] and added that the film was "taking full advantage of the MCU" and would feature jokes about Feige.[123] Disney paid to keep the film's sets intact during the strike.[120]

The film, along with others that were mid-way through production at the start of the strikes, was said to be a top priority for the studios to resume production upon the conclusion of the SAG-AFTRA strike.

dog actor Peggy,[25] and the film's release date was pushed back to July 26, 2024.[128] Filming resumed by November 23.[129]

In early December, set photos revealed that the characters Sabretooth and Toad were appearing in the film. The photos of Sabretooth resembled Tyler Mane, who portrayed the character in X-Men, and Toad was also similar to his X-Men appearance.[26][130][27] Reynolds commented shortly after about the set photo leaks, saying they created a difficult situation for the production and was hopeful that websites would stop publishing unfinished, out-of-context leaked images to "preserve as much of that magic as possible for the finished film and the big screen".[116] He noted that the franchise is associated with leaks, since the first film was able to be made following a leak of its original test footage, and proceeded to post faux leaked images featuring Mickey Mouse, Predator, and Steve Urkel, along with various hashtags to try to alter the social media algorithm around the actual leaked photos, since platforms prioritize posts from high-profile accounts.[131] At the end of December, Bona Film Group signed a deal with TSG Entertainment to invest in a slate of films, including the Deadpool franchise.[132] In early January 2024, Variety reported that the film would include several characters from prior Fox-produced Marvel films and that it was expected to have a similar approach to how Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) features multiple characters from past Spider-Man films.[133] Set photos at the end of the month showed Reynolds portraying a "samurai-based" variant of Deadpool.[5] Filming wrapped on January 24.[134]

Post-production

The film's official title was announced as Deadpool & Wolverine in February 2024 when a teaser trailer was released.

Alioth from Loki was appearing in the film, along with the characters Lady Deathstrike and Azazel. The latter two resembled Kelly Hu and Jason Flemyng, who portrayed those characters in the X-Men films.[7]

Shane Reid and Dean Zimmerman are editing the film,[137][138][139] while visual effects are provided by Framestore, Industrial Light & Magic (ILM), Wētā FX, Base FX, Barnstorm VFX, and Raynault VFX, with Swen Gillberg serving as the visual effects supervisor.[140]

Marketing

A teaser trailer for the film was released during

Avengers: Secret Wars (2027) and the comic issue centered on Doctor Doom creating Battleworld.[10][144][145] Shortly after the trailer's premiere, Jackman posted a tongue-in-cheek jab at Reynolds with a modified logo displaying "Wolverine & Asshole".[146] The trailer had 365 million global views in its first 24 hours, surpassing the record of Spider-Man: No Way Home (355.5 million views) to become the most viewed trailer in that time period.[81] The reported views included the 123 million Super Bowl viewers who saw a 30-second version of the trailer.[147]
