Overview

  • Ryan Reynolds reiterated that Deadpool will never officially join the Avengers or X-Men, as such team membership would undermine the character's outsider narrative arc.
  • Reynolds is currently writing a new ensemble-based project for Deadpool, though it remains unclear if Marvel Studios has approved or greenlit the concept.
  • The actor believes Deadpool functions best as a supporting character and aims to capture the audience excitement seen with Wesley Snipes’s Blade cameo in 'Deadpool & Wolverine.'
  • Reynolds hinted at the possibility of including nostalgic characters like Wesley Snipes’s Blade, Jennifer Garner, Channing Tatum, Ben Affleck’s Daredevil, or Eric Bana’s Hulk in the new project.
  • Deadpool’s past attempts to join teams, such as his X-Men traineeship in 'Deadpool 2' and an Avengers interview in 'Deadpool & Wolverine,' have consistently ended in failure, reinforcing his outsider status.
