In the grand spectacle of Deadpool 3, the tables had turned as it brought together a huge crew of cinematic superheroes. The spotlight gleamed on none other than Hugh Jackman, making his triumphant return as Wolverine. This highly anticipated threequel, slated to be the 34th film in the MCU, is not shy of rumors. Whispers echoed about the potential appearances of X-Men stars like Laura/X-23 and Sabretooth.

As if this roster were not thrilling enough, rumors even danced around the possible inclusion of Channing Tatum. With Emma Corrin in the villain’s role, rumors swirl about another X-Men villain joining the cast, and surprisingly, it is not Apocalypse.

Another X-Men villlain in Deadpool 3?

In the world of Deadpool 3, a Marvel movie demands an array of villains to spice things up. The rumor mill was abuzz with speculations about Corrin taking on the role of Lady Deadpool or even Loki’s Mobius making a surprise appearance, but confirmation remains a distant promise until the film hits the screens—an entire year away. Adding to the intrigue, another whisper surfaced, suggesting that the X-Men villain Toad might join the fray, poised to challenge Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman.

The details about the plot remain elusive. Ray Park originally portrayed the character 23 years ago. Although Toad is a significant figure in X-Men comics, the film franchise featured him sparingly, with notable appearances in X-Men and X-Men: Days of Future Past. What truly cemented his cinematic legacy was a memorable scene where he battled Storm. In Deadpool 3, Toad’s return hints at more cameos and an opportunity to mock superhero movie conventions, much like the franchise has done before.

The swirling rumors, their fate shrouded in mystery, has left fans eagerly waiting for the truth to unveil itself. In the meantime, let us delve into the recent updates regarding the movie’s release date and rumors.

Latest updates on the threequel

Despite the SAG-AFTRA strike, Deadpool 3 is unwavering in its May 3, 2024 release date. The movie is a top priority for Disney and Marvel Studios. Director Shawn Levy guides the effort to maintain its R-rated essence and utilize real-world settings. While the storyline remained a well-guarded secret, tantalizing hints suggested time-travel elements and encounters with the Time Variance Authority.

Iconic characters like Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen and Halle Berry are rumored for a comeback. Additionally, the prospect of other Marvel movie personas joining the mix added to the intrigue. An unexpected rumor even proposed Taylor Swift as the mutant Dazzler, known for her sound-to-light abilities. With Levy directing and the expertise of the writing team, the movie is poised to maintain its legacy of humor and R-rated audacity.
