Ryan Reynolds’ merc with a mouth, Wade Wilson, may be the only artifact to transition over from the 20th Century Fox X-Men universe to Marvel Studios’ Marvel Cinematic Universe. Speaking on that, the actor tells Total Film that he doesn’t really know what plans Kevin Feige and company have for the character moving forward.
“Oh, man, I really donโt know,” he said. “Itโs just all so new with it being over at Marvel now, and, you know, figuring out the ins and outs as much as I can, from where I sit. Weโll see.”
A big reason the Deadpool films were so successful was Reynold’s involvement in the creative development of the films and their unique marketing strategies. Hopefully that will continue moving forward and he’s allowed to let loose as he did under Fox.
“I donโt feel like an insider at all. I think once Iโm more intimate with it โ if we get to make a Deadpool 3โฆ if or when we get to make a Deadpool 3, Iโll probably have a better perspective on that. But Iโm a huge fan of Marvel, and how they make movies. So when Disney bought Fox, I only saw that as a good thing,” he continued.
“Deadpool hopefully being allowed to play in that sandbox, I think is just a win for everyone involved. But weโll certainly see.”
