During an interview with Nuke The Fridge, Deadpool creator Rob Liefeld was asked about the possibility of X-Men characters appearing in ‘Deadpool 3’. Liefeld responded, “All I’m saying is, I saw that cast list, and I think people are just going to get freaking blown away!” Watch the full interview below.
Rob Liefeld is a comic book artist, writer, and creator known for his work in the superhero genre. He co-founded Image Comics and is known for co-creating Deadpool, Cable, X-Force, and Youngblood.
We already revealed that ‘Deadpool 3’ is set to bring back some important characters from the previous ‘X-Men’ films. Along with Hugh Jackman returning as Wolverine, it was also confirmed that Halle Berry, Famke Janssen, and James Marsden might also reprise their roles as Storm, Jean Gray, and Cyclops in the film.
Deadpool 3 filming is happening at Pinewood Studios in London. Most recently, Jackman arrived in London, where he was sporting his classic Wolverine beard for the film.
The film is directed by Shawn Levy. In the film, Ryan Reynolds will reprise his role as Wade Wilson/Deadpool, alongside Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, Leslie Uggams as Blind Al, Karan Soni as Dopinder, Morena Baccarin as Vanessa Carlysle, Stefan Kapičić as Piotr Rasputin/Colossus, Rob Delaney as Peter, Shioli Kutsuna as Yukio, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, and new additions Emma Corrin and Matthew Macfadyen. The script is penned by Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick, Zeb Wells, Reynolds, and Levy. In the latest episode of The Cosmic Circle, host Brian Kitson and writer Alex Perez shared that the Scarlet Witch will be mentioned in ‘Agatha: Coven of Chaos’ and ‘Deadpool 3’.
According to screenwriters Reese and Wernick, Marvel is very supportive of keeping Deadpool 3 R-rated. “It’s a thrill,” Reese said. “It’s an absolute thrill to have the band back together, to have a new backdrop in the MCU with new characters, new villains, that kind of thing. You know, it’s never a marriage we necessarily saw coming—Fox and Disney—that was an external thing [separate] from our storytelling process. But we’re absolutely finding the serendipity and the gold in that situation, or we’re trying to.”
‘Deadpool 3’ hits theaters on May 3, 2024.
