After the huge success of Deadpool & Wolverine last summer, nine months after its theatrical release, the Big Mouth Mercenary is making headlines again. His actor Ryan Reynolds is working on a project that will definitely delight fans of the character as well as those of the X-Men.
Deadpool's arrival in the MCU brought in big bucks for Disney
Last July, Deadpool, accompanied by Wolverine, made his arrival in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And it was a box office hit since the film Deadpool & Wolverine Wolverinehas grossed $1.338 billion. This achievement makes the production the highest-grossing R-rated film of all time. According to Deadline, after everyone had taken their share of the pie, Deadpool 3 earned the Disney group $400 million.
So, unsurprisingly, Ryan Reynolds has been quietly preparing his character's return. For its part, Marvel is thinking about the arrival of mutants, but it won't be any time soon, as before that, there's Avengers: Doomsday next May and Avengers: Secret Wars the following year. Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige has also approved a first script for an X-Men film entrusted to Hungers Games screenwriter Michael Lesslie. And that's not the only project being considered.
A new Marvel movie with the X-Men and Deadpool?
Indeed, according to information from The Hollywood Reporter, Ryan Reynolds is working on a team-up movie bringing together the X-Men and Deadpool. However, Wade Wilson would not play a major role, just a supporting one. According to the American media, this ensemble film project would be a different film than the one approved by Feige last spring.
Regarding the plot of this film bringing together the mutants and the famous mercenary, it is still too early to know what Reynolds has in store for us. Let's remember that before coming up with the idea for Deadpool & Wolverine, he had once imagined a Deadpool 3 in low-budget road movie mode. We'll have to wait a few more years before we find out what the actor has in mind. Note that Ryan Reynolds had not hidden his desire to see Channing Tatum as Gambit on the big screen after his appearance in the third installment of the franchise. Will he be in the game?
For now, Ryan Reynolds continues to work on writing the screenplay for Boy Band for Paramount. This film will tell the story of a boy band's reunion years later after achieving fame and success. Hugh Jackman is preparing to reunite with his friend for this project.
