DEADPOOL 3 Reportedly Casts HARRY POTTER Star Daniel Radcliffe In "Secret Role"

We're hearing that Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe will be joining Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman in Deadpool 3 but his role is being kept under wraps...

Another day, another Deadpool 3 rumor, and this one is certain to drum up quite a lot of interest and speculation.

According to insider Daniel Richtman (via Patreon), Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe has been cast in the upcoming Marvel Studios threequel in a "secret role."

No other details were provided, but the most popular theory seems to be that he'll be playing a Wolverine Variant. This stems from a previous rumor which claimed that Radcliffe was on Marvel's radar to take over from Hugh Jackman as Logan in the planned X-Men reboot.

There didn't seem to be any validity to these reports, but it's something the actor is still asked about in interviews, so we could see Ryan Reynolds (Wade Wilson) and director Shawn Levy bringing him on board for a fun cameo appearance.

This is just one of many possibilities, of course, and there's a chance Radcliffe will have a more substantial role as a completely different character.

Deadpool 3 is expected to be similar to The Flash when it comes to its Multiverse elements, with Wilson and Wolverine dropping in on various alternate realities and timelines. It sounds like a lot of other cameos have been lined up, including several X-Men characters (Storm, Cyclops, and Jean Grey among them), and possibly even Channing Tatum and Taylor Kitsch as different Variants of Gambit.

A recent rumor claimed that Liev Schreiber is set to reprise his X-Men Origins: Wolverine role as Victor Creed/Sabertooth. Variants of the Merc With a Mouth are also rumored to appear, including Dogpool, Kidpool, Lady Deadpool, and more.

The one major return that has been confirmed by the trades is Jennifer Garner as Elektra, but it seems speculation that Ben Affleck would be joining her as Daredevil was unfounded.

Morena Baccarin (Vanessa), Karan Soni (Dopinder), Leslie Uggams (Blind Al), Rob Delaney (Peter), Brianna Hildebrand (Negasonic Teenage Warhead) And Shioli Kutsuna (Yukio) will all return as their respective characters, and they'll be joined by franchise newcomers Emma Corrin (The Crown) and Matthew Macfadyen (Succession), whose roles are still under wraps.

Plot details also remain a mystery for now, but Wade and Wolvie are expected to find themselves (trapped?) in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. A recent report claimed that Loki's TVA, including Agent Mobius (Owen Wilson) and Miss Minutes, will be involved. We have also been led to believe that Wade's MCU debut will be far more integral to Phase 5 and beyond than we first realized.

Shawn Levy is directing Deadpool 3, which is set to hit theaters on September 6, 2024.

Wolverine variant? Wasn't he rumored or fancasted long ago?

@DarthAlgar - That's my guess. It wouldn't surprise me Marvel might be putting fancasts to good use and have variant cameos as a fan service, like what they did with John Krasinski as a throwaway Mr. Fantastic.

They are striking, none of these conversations are being had. People are just making up rumors for content since nothing is going on.

@Ha1frican - This 100%. This article is complete BS. Just because some pics of harry potter looking shredded came out a week or two ago. Now this Richtman douche is trying to get clicks out of desperation based on the little attention that got. Pathetic.

It'll be fan service like Krasinski as Reed Richards in Multiverse of Madness.

This article is only good for one thing; reminding me that Jennifer Garner is going to be Elektra again. Can't wait for that.

@TheVisionary25 - was thinking David Franco for Nightcrawler, but Radcliffe would be good aswell.
TheVisionary25
TheVisionary25 - 9/10/2023, 3:50 PM
@emeraldtaurus - idk about Dave Franco but I haven’t seen much of him aside from his kinda douchey roles at times so maybe I’m not the best judge haha.
emeraldtaurus
emeraldtaurus - 9/10/2023, 4:19 PM
@TheVisionary25 - check out "Now you see me" he's very nightcrawler like in the action scenes.
TheVisionary25
TheVisionary25 - 9/10/2023, 4:22 PM
@emeraldtaurus - oh yes

Hmm , I kinda see it

Well at least Radcliffe's height is more comic accurate. I can see them making fun of that in this particular film.
Jackraow21
Jackraow21 - 9/10/2023, 3:50 PM
@Mugens - And it will be hilarious. But I can already see some folks (who take this terrible fan casting seriously) whining about it.

WhatIfRickJames - 9/10/2023, 3:06 PM
It’d be great if that’s true. Fan casting that is pretty accurate from a height perspective

Dude has some nice comedic chops. He'd be good for Arcade.
