With Hugh Jackman returning as Wolverine for DEADPOOL 3, many wonder if this means the return of Patrick Stewart as Professor X once again. “I’ve been told to standby,” he told ComicBook while promoting his final season of Picard on Paramount+. “I know nothing more than that, honest.” Stewart previously appeared in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness as a Charles Xavier variant from Earth-838.

A few major X-Men characters are rumored to appear in DP3, with a greater number of them being planned for Marvel Studios’ upcoming Avengers: Secret Wars mega event in 2026. That film will see the multiverse collide, which will have major ramifications for the MCU moving forward.

Deadpool 3 begins filming late Spring/early Summer with director Shawn Levy for a November 8, 2024 theatrical release.
