Ryan Reynolds is gearing up as Deadpool to face or collaborate with Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine in Deadpool 3. The upcoming Marvel movie aims to break a lot of barriers, including the fourth wall. Set to be the first R-rated MCU movie, it is to retain its original violent yet witty approach to filming as confirmed by Marvel boss, Kevin Feige. The movie also has Emma Corrin as an unrevealed villain with several other new, returning, and unexpected faces and cameos, including Thanos actor, Josh Brolin.

However, production needs to be resumed soon for the movie to be released on the promised date. The SAG-AFTRA strikes have halted the movie’s development. Moreover, a movie of this scale needs to balance fan sentiments while also juggling the fate of the MCU as a whole. With much at stake, fans and the actors themselves can only hope for a quick resolution.
