DEADPOOL AND WOLVERINE Director Shawn Levy Says He'd Love To Helm A DEADPOOL & SPIDER-MAN Movie

The Merc With a Mouth will join forces with Logan in Shawn Levy's Deadpool and Wolverine, but the filmmaker has his eye on a possible team-up with Spider-Man down the line...

Wade Wilson has teamed up with quite a few different characters in the comics over the years, and almost every single one of them has regretted it to some extent!

In Marvel Studios' upcoming Deadpool and Wolverine, director Shawn Levy wisely chose to tap in to the Odd Couple energy that comes with the Merc With a Mouth and Logan joining forces, but there is another Marvel superhero the filmmaker would love to see Wade encounter on the big screen at some point.

"The thing about Deadpool is I think he makes everything more interesting because of his audacity," Levy tells Games Radar. "But, boy, I'd sure love to see Deadpool and Spidey. That's a movie I'd love to make. I feel like Tom Holland would run circles around everyone else."

If D&W is a success (and box office tracking is looking pretty good), Levy might well get the opportunity to make a Deadpool and Spider-Man movie, although Disney may be a little less willing to throw Holland's take on Peter Parker into an R-rated adventure!

Producer Wendy Jacobson was also asked who she'd most like to see Deadpool team-up with, and somewhat randomly, chose She-Hulk: Attorney at Law villain Titania (Jameela Jamil).

"She's such a heightened, hilarious character and also an actor who can improv and is razor-sharp and can banter," she explained. "I can't imagine being an actor, period, but I can't imagine having to work opposite someone like Ryan Reynolds, who is just so quick and so smart and so funny all the time – but that woman could handle it."

The MPAA recently gave the movie an official R-rating for: "Strong bloody violence and language throughout, gore, and sexual references."

“Marvel Studios presents their most significant mistake to date - Deadpool & Wolverine," reads the new synopsis. "A listless Wade Wilson toils away in civilian life. His days as the morally flexible mercenary, Deadpool, behind him. When his homeworld faces an existential threat, Wade must reluctantly suit-up again with an even more reluctantlier... reluctanter? Reluctantest? He must convince a reluctant Wolverine to - F*ck. Synopses are so f*cking stupid.”

In addition to Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman in the title roles, Deadpool and Wolverine will see Morena Baccarin (Vanessa), Leslie Uggams (Blind Al), Rob Delaney (Peter), Brianna Hildebrand (Negasonic Teenage Warhead) And Shioli Kutsuna (Yukio) return as their respective characters, and they'll be joined by franchise newcomers Emma Corrin (The Crown) and Matthew Macfadyen (Succession), who will play a TV agent and Charles Xavier's evil counterpart, Cassandra Nova.

Shawn Levy directs Deadpool and Wolverine from a script by Ryan Reynolds, Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick, and Zeb Wells.

The movie is set to open in U.S. & Canadian theaters on July 26, and will be available in IMAX, RealD 3D, Dolby Cinema, 4DX, Cinemark XD and premium screens everywhere.

I don’t need it as it’s own movie but it could be fun having them interact in a big crossover , there’s definitely precedent for it…

Would be funny too since this Spidey is younger then the one Wade interacts with in the comics so I can see him making real inappropriate jokes like the one above being said and him backtracking by making another quip.

Look, we all know Tom Holland was genetically engineered to be 15 forever. Deadpool is too inappropriate for him.

But seriously, I have 8th graders at my school that look older than him.

I liked Tom hollands banter in the far from home deleted scene. Also how he schooled star lord when they met on Titan

Spidey with that wittiness and deadpool would make 2 billi

I'm sure people would love it. I don't know that I think Holland is the right Spidey for it, though. I feel like Reynolds would have better chemistry with Garfield or Maguire.

I've never been a fan of Rob Liefeld, or Deadpool, or the Fox-Men, so I don't have much investment in this flick.
A little bit of Deadpool's schtick goes a long way imo, and it quickly wears out it's welcome.

That said, I think this movie will do well; about the same at the boxoffice as the first two, but it won't be the massive hit Marvel is hoping for +$1 billion.
The MCU has severely tarnished it's reputation post-Endgame, and it seems the general moviegoing public is burned out on superhero movies overall.

This will not be the movie that "saves" the MCU (if that is even possible going forward).
A TOTALLY rebooted X-Men with an entirely new cast and zero ties to the Fox properties might be the only chance to get things back in gear, but that's still years off.
I'm still hopeful the FF can be genuinely cosmic and inspiring, but from what I've seen so far, I'm rather disappointed.
There's not much to get excited about with the MCU in the short run imo and they better start hitting some home runs real quick or it'll be over soon.

@Feralwookiee - i agree. And when the DCU is in full swing next year, even this site will become a DC shill site.

He will be fondly remembered like Ace Ventura 3.0. I'm already over the exaggerated innuendo.
