At the rate things are going, we could be waiting an awfully long time to see Deadpool finally make his long-awaited Marvel Cinematic Universe debut. It was twelve months ago that Ryan Reynolds revealed he’d held talks with Kevin Feige and his team over bringing the Merc with a Mouth into the world’s biggest franchise, and it was another eleven months until we got any more concrete information.
Based on the length of time between the project entering development and the Molyneux sisters being hired to write the script, we’ll be lucky if Deadpool 3 has a director attached by the end of 2021. Then when you factor in the leading man’s jam-packed upcoming schedule and his litany of business ventures away from the silver screen, not to mention the fact Deadpool 3 was the only in-development project not mentioned by name at the recent Disney Investor Day, the self-aware superhero’s return to the big screen looks that little bit further away.
However, insider Daniel Richtman claims that Ryan Reynolds wants Deadpool to star in as many MCU movies as Iron Man, meaning he’ll need to get a move on if he wants that to happen. Take this one with a pinch of salt though, because you don’t march up to someone like Kevin Feige, one of the most powerful figures in Hollywood who lays his mythology out years in advance and say, ‘I want to appear in eleven of your movies’, because that’s not how these things work.
The 44 year-old Reynolds is already older than RDJ was when he headlined Iron Man in the summer of 2008, so if he wants a dozen notches on his MCU belt then Deadpool will need to become a regular fixture on our screens over the coming years.
