Ryan Reynolds: Dogpool “Feels Like The Animal Manifestation Of Wade Wilson.”

Speaking with Empire Magazine, Ryan Reynolds, who stars as the merc with a mouth in Deadpool & Wolverine, opened up about how Dogpool came to be.

“Her real name is Peggy, and she won the award for Britain’s Ugliest Dog,” said Reynolds on the merc with a bark. “The reason why I was a huge proponent for her was because she feels like the animal manifestation of Wade Wilson.”

Sounds like Dogpool will have more than a cameo: “It was, just like many things during the writing process, a tiny little afterthought, and it grew,” Reynolds explains. “It was one of those things where you just keep listening to the movie, and Dogpool became a staple.”

Fans can eXpect plenty of comedy and attitude from this pup, said Reynolds: “Dogpool’s a Pool, so probably has some moral flexibility about where she wees and poops.”

Deadpool & Wolverine arrives in theaters on July 26, 2024.
