DEADPOOL 3 Was Originally A Christmas Movie Under 20th Century, Says Karan Soni

Deadpool & Wolverine actor Karan Soni shared details on the original plan for Deadpool 3 before 20th Century Fox was purchased by Disney, with the X-Men rights converting to Marvel Studios. Attending SXSW to promote his new movie A Nice Indian Boy, Soni spoke with ScreenRant, saying he first let info slip while meeting with director of said movie, Roshan Sethi.

“On our first date I recapped the plot of Deadpool 3, which I wasn’t supposed to,” he said. “This was the Fox version, which didn’t get made because the studio got sold or whatever. But we just met, and I was desperate to impress him, and I just blurted the entire thing. I told him Hugh Jackman was gonna be in it – this was years before.

“It was going to be originally a roadtrip movie where Deadpool tries to save Christmas,” he continued, “so we all go to the North Pole.”

This wouldn’t be the merc with a mouth’s first foray into Holiday-themed goodness, as the PG-13 DP2 aka Once Upon A Deadpool had a similar theme in presentation.

Deadpool now gets to play with the MCU in Deadpool & Wolverine, arriving in theaters on July 26, 2024.
