Deadpool’s Back—But This Time, It’s Personal… and Collaborative

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Reynolds is in the early development stages of a Deadpool team-up movie, potentially featuring three to four iconic X-Men characters. Rather than dominating the screen, Wade Wilson may step back to let other mutants shine, marking a dramatic shift in the franchise’s formula.

Why a Team-Up Makes Sense Now

Reynolds has made it clear: Deadpool & Wolverine, which grossed a jaw-dropping $1.338 billion, becoming the highest-grossing R-rated film in history, was a creative peak for the solo Deadpool format. Now, he’s pivoting.
