Dopinder star Karan Soni recently said this Variety that “there are a lot of surprises” in the film and that “a lot of people traveled” to the London-based film set.
One of those who was asked to participate, but unfortunately won’t be seen in the film, is Vinnie Jones, who played Juggernaut in X-Men: The Last Stand.
He said Yahoo! Movies: “Funny enough, I was just asked to do Deadpool, the new one now, and I talked to the director and I just said it was such a drama to put on that costume mentally and physically. I mean, it also had mental consequences because you are in it and you can’t do anything all day, you can only drink through a straw.

“So we couldn’t make a deal for Deadpool. But Deadpool is pretty much my favorite movie of all time. I really wanted to do it, but they didn’t have the budget to put me in the costume.” .
There are only a few months until the film‘s release, so we’ll soon know for sure who showed up to make these cameos.
As we enter the home stretch, here’s everything you need to know about Deadpool 3, titled Deadpool & Wolverine.
Deadpool & Wolverine release date: When will it hit theaters?
Deadpool & Wolverine will be released on July 26, 2024.
The film was pushed back after being impacted by WGA strikes. Prior to its current release date, it was scheduled to hit theaters on September 6.
Earlier this year, Ryan Reynolds confirmed that filming on the highly anticipated film had wrapped.
Like Deadpool, the main actor simply shared a photo of his own crotch (in costume, we hasten to add), in writing: “The costume hides the blood. The sweat too… But today, with Deadpool’s packaging, it’s mostly tears.
“A giant, everlasting thank you to our film‘s cast and crew who battled through wind, rain, strikes and @RealHughJackman… all under the faithful direction of @ShawnLevyDirectt.”
Jackman, who reprises the role of Wolverine for the film, added: “What an adventure!!! I loved every minute of making this film.
“Well, not the workout and diet, but the other 93.2%. Thanks to the best cast and crew! You’re all ace. To two of my best friends @VancityReynolds and @ShawnLevyDirect, I ‘Literally couldn’t have done this without you.’
Deadpool & Wolverine cast: who will return?
The following actors have been confirmed for Deadpool & Wolverine.
- Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool/Wade Wilson
- Hugh Jackman as Wolverine/James ‘Logan’ Howlett
- Morena Baccarin as Vanessa
- Stefan Kapicic as Colussus
- Leslie Uggams as Blind Al

Ryan Reynolds has been confirmed to reprise his role as the title character, Wade Wilson.
Meanwhile, Hugh Jackman has been confirmed to be reprising his role as Wolverine/James ‘Logan’ Howlett in the film, after his return to the role was confirmed in the same video in which the release date was confirmed.
Reynolds asked Jackman, “Hey Hugh, do you want to play Wolverine one more time?”
Jackman replied, “Yeah, sure, Ryan.”
Jackman last portrayed the character in the emotional swan song Logan in 2017, which saw the character bow out in a dark alternate timeline.
In response to the news that Jackman was reprising his role as Wolverine after his death, Logan and The Wolverine director James Mangold shared a GIF of a scene in Logan where Wolverine was impaled by his evil clone X-24 .
The injury contributed to the character’s demise at the end of the film.
After comments that Mangold was reacting negatively to not having final say on the character, the director clarified his stance in another tweet.
Mangold wrote: “OMG! Everyone relax. Just kidding! Everything is fine! LOGAN will still be here.
“Multiverse or prequel, time warp or wormhole, canon or non-canon or even without justification, I can’t wait to see what madness [sic] my dear friends @VancityReynolds and @RealHughJackman are cooking!”
Various members of the Deadpool cast have also been confirmed to return alongside him and Wolverine, including Morena Baccarin’s love interest Vanessa and Stefan Kapicic’s Colussus, with the first trailer giving us a glimpse.
Brianna Hildebrand (Negasonic Teenage Warhead) and Shioli Kutsuna (Yukio) will also be seen in action again, while we’ll also see more of Jennifer Garner’s Elektra, Rob Delaney’s Peter and Karan Soni’s Dopinder.
In the meantime, we also have a few new arrivals, including Matthew Macfadyen and Emma Corrin.
The first trailer confirmed that Macfadyen would play Paradox, a comic book character arriving for the very first time in the MCU.
Macfadyen’s incarnation appears to be Deadpool’s liaison to TVA. In the comics, he is a judge presiding over She-Hulk’s trial and a colleague of Mobius at the TVA.
We can also expect some surprise appearances, with Soni teasing him in an interview with Variety.
He told the publication of the London-set film: “There are a lot of surprises. Let’s just say a lot of people have traveled to London.”
One of those who definitely won’t be making an appearance is Vinnie Jones, who revealed that he was asked to return as Juggernaut, the role he played in X-Men: The Last Stand, but that ‘he refused.
He said Yahoo! Movies: “Funny enough, I was just asked to do Deadpool, the new one now, and I talked to the director and I just said it was such a drama to put on that costume mentally and physically. I mean, it also had mental consequences because you are in it and you can’t do anything all day, you can only drink through a straw.
“So we couldn’t make a deal for Deadpool. But Deadpool is pretty much my favorite movie of all time. I really wanted to do it, but they didn’t have the budget to put me in the costume.” .
Is Deadpool now part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe?
YesDeadpool has been confirmed to make his MCU debut in Deadpool & Wolverine.
While Deadpool was first introduced as part of the standalone X-Men films, recent comments from Marvel boss Kevin Feige suggest he will be moving over to the MCU in his third film.
While other X-Men characters are expected to be completely rebooted following Dark Phoenix’s disastrous performance, Deadpool remains very popular, so recasting the role would pose problems.
Additionally, since the character has such a penchant for meta-humor, it would be very easy for him to overlook continuity errors with an offbeat remark directly into the camera lens.

What will happen in Deadpool & Wolverine?
The very meta trailer gives us some clues as to what Deadpool & Wolverine will be like. We see him celebrating a birthday, apparently after hanging up his suit, before being torn from his loved ones by TVA to encounter the Macfadyen paradox.
Addressing Deadpool’s arrival in the MCU, Paradox tells him he has a chance to be a “hero among heroes”, before Wade promises to change the MCU forever.
With Deadpool back, we officially see him back in action – and taking some heat, too.
Fortunately, he is not alone. The final shots of the trailer show him flat on his back while a very familiar figure – with claws – helps him get up.
Reynolds already said film/news/ryan-reynolds-deadpool-2-i-love-my-family-arm-surgery-1203113328/”>Variety that the film will go “in a completely different direction” from previous installments. Meanwhile, it has also been described as a “fish out of water” story that will heavily deal with Deadpool’s arrival in the MCU.
Obviously VAT will play a huge role, so we wouldn’t be surprised by a crossover between Deadpool and Loki.
In January 2021, Reynolds revealed on Twitter (now Conflicts. accounts of the same incident from the points of view of several characters.
