As a threequel in the MCU, Marvel Studios wants Deadpool3 to elevate its franchise like Ragnarok did with Thor.
Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige says the impact of Deadpool 3 on its respective franchise should be similar to Thor: Ragnarok. Following Ryan Reynolds allegedly leaking Deadpool test footage online, the Merc with a Mouth made his irreverent debut in 2016. Its monumental success paved the way for other R-rated comic book movies, like 2017’s Logan and its own sequel. Under the umbrella of 20th Century Fox, Deadpool 2 adhered to its predecessor’s proclivity for mockery.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Deadpool 3 was already in the works before the Disney-Fox merger, which brought the X-Men, Fantastic Four, and Reynolds' foul-mouthed character under the control of Marvel Studios. Last year, Reynolds made his quasi-MCU debut alongside Korg in a promo for Free Guy. Then, this year, it was announced that director Shawn Levy would helm Deadpool 3, which is being written by Reynolds, Wendy Molyneux, and Lizzie Molyneux-Logelin.
“How do we elevate it in the way we’ve been able to with Civil War, Infinity War, and Ragnarok? It’s very fun to be in the world of the Ryan Reynolds show.” Where team-up films like Captain America: Civil War and Avengers: Infinity War raised the stakes action-wise, Ragnarok reinvigorated the Thor franchise with Taika Waititi’s brand of irreverence and self-referential humor. Given that Reynolds and Deadpool have already perfected the latter, the Merc with a Mouth will apply his humor to the Multiverse Saga.
After Professor X’s cameo in Doctor Strange 2 and Ms. Marvel’s mutant twist, Deadpool 3 could implement a handful of Fox characters into the MCU/Earth-616. The eponymous character’s meta nature makes him comfortable jumping universes and addressing continuity issues. Taking place within the mainline MCU, Deadpool 3 will serve as a litmus test for other R/TV-MA Marvel Studios projects moving forward.
