What is Deadpool 3 about?
While an exact plot is still being kept under wraps, Ryan Reynolds has been busy developing the script alongside Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick, and Zeb Wells. According to Reynolds, it was always his intention to bring Jackman back into the fold with the movie.
“It’s been fun,” Reynolds previously explained to ET Canada when asked about Deadpool 3. “He and I are both really excited. We’ve wanted to do this for a decade. So, to have this opportunity now is, I think actually weirdly, the perfect time… I never stopped (trying to recruit Jackman). I was just pestering him like a gnat over the last many years. I actually just think… I believe in timing, as much as hard work and luck and all those intersections that are supposed to meet, timing is a big one as well, and I think he was ready. I think he was excited and what we pitched him was enough of a divergence from the character that he knows and the character that he’s left behind, that it gives him something completely new to play and something that he’s really excited to do.”
