According to insider Daniel Richtman, Liev Schreiber is set to reprise his role of Sabretooth in Deadpool 3. If reports are to be believed, it will really shape the debut of Ryan Reynolds in the MCU. First, the gripping performance of the American actor in X-Men Origins: Wolverine is a witness to his talent. Second, fans will like to watch Wolverine and Sabretooth making amends in the upcoming threequel.

To put it simply, this film will truly immerse itself in this multiverse, becoming a treat to viewers’ eyes. However, nothing can be confirmed at the moment because of the ongoing double strike. It has been weeks since the team announced the halt of production. And with it not mentioned on Disney’s theatrical slate, fans can only wait for the flick to reach their nearest theatres.

About four months ago, Liev Schreiber sat down with GQ to break down his most iconic characters. In this interview, he also addressed the movie X-Men Origins: Wolverine, where he first embodied the role of Victor Creed. He expressed his contentment about the upcoming movie starring Ryan Reynolds. He said the actor has “corrected” the Deadpool character with this franchise.

According to him, the origin of the character portrays him opposite of what he actually was. But the 46-year-old did the right thing and brought that essence of Wade Wilson back. So these thoughts of the California native tell that he would really like to return as Sabertooth in the movie if the opportunity comes to him.
