Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is expected to feature a lot of cameos, but will Ryan Reynolds' Merc with the Mouth be among them? If Deadpool is going to be pulled through the Multiverse and into the MCU as the same Variant of the character who starred in two hit R-Rated adventures, then this is the ideal movie to make it happen.
We recently brought you an interview with Reynolds in which he denied any sort of participation in the Doctor Strange sequel, but the full video provides a little more context.
As you can see, the actor stumbles over his words, basically admitting he isn't supposed to say anything before denying that Wade Wilson will show up in Sam Raimi's movie. Reynolds looks shifty as hell throughout, and if we had to hazard a guess, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will finally bring this fan-favourite hero into the MCU.
That would line up with a lot of recent rumours, of course, and probably bodes well for Deadpool 3 happening sooner rather than later. While that threequel has writers, there's no word on a director (though we're sure Marvel Studios has already begun talks with filmmakers).
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will be released on May 6. Deadpool 3 remains undated.
