The online world has been buzzing for months about the incredible lineup of characters we might witness in Deadpool 3, especially since Shawn Levy has confirmed certain names. When it was speculated that Loki actor Tom Hiddleston could be joining Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool and Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine to form a sort of trio, the frenzy was palpable. Besides Hiddleston, other actors that were believed to be inching towards the third Deadpool flick included Owen Wilson and Ben Affleck, who was once DC’s Batman.

While some were true to be joining and some were mere rumors, Levy seems to have confirmed one of the biggest names who were thrown into the mix of these rumors.

Shawn Levy drops some shocking news about this rumored cameo

All the exciting chatter surrounding Deadpool 3 has recently seen the addition of Taylor Swift’s name added to the rumored cameos. In an interview with Josh Horowitz during a Happy Sad Confused episode, Levy pretty much confirmed a cameo from the 33-year-old. While confessing that “10% of the rumors” are actually true, he revealed that roping in some of those celebrities was shockingly “easy” because those “people” love Deadpool and Ryan Reynolds!

Earlier, the Canadian director had also said that fans would have to “wait and see” if the 12-time Grammy award winner was part of Deadpool 3. Well, Reynolds and Swift are known to be great friends too! If roping in some of the biggest names was as easy as Levy hinted at, maybe the Free Guy actor was involved in convincing Swift!

The interview not only hinted at Swift’s cameo but also saw Levy even speaking about the character that she is believed to be playing!

Does Shawn Levy think Taylor Swift is a ‘dazzler’?

When the tantalizing rumors floating around about none other than Taylor Swift making an appearance in Deadpool 3 surfaced, viewers wondered how the filmmakers could possibly write her into the narrative. Later, it was speculated that the ‘Bad Blood’ singer had taken the avatar of a character called Dazzler. When Horowitz asked Levy if the name Dazzler could be associated with Swift, the 55-year-old remarked that it would be “a great idea”.

Even under the surmounting pressure, Levy has neither denied nor accepted Swift’s presence. All he has given fans is nothing but hints! Additionally, he also touched on the confirmation of Matthew Macfadyen and Emma Corrin who also commented on her addition to the cast recently. Meanwhile, fans cannot wait to see which rumors end up being true. As the movie releases in 2024, they may have to wait to find out for themselves.
