As of now, Marvel Studios and Reynolds have remained silent about what comes after Deadpool & Wolverine. While no release date, cast details, or storyline have been announced, the confirmation that development has begun is enough to excite long-time fans.
Will it be Deadpool 4 or a Marvel team-up?
Although Ryan Reynolds confirmed another Deadpool project is happening, he deliberately avoided saying whether it will be a fourth solo film.
According to the recent reports, rumours have linked the character to future Marvel projects, including possible appearances alongside the X-Men or in upcoming Avengers films. Reynolds did not confirm any of those reports, but his refusal to reveal details has only added to the speculation.
Earlier this year, Reynolds had suggested that Deadpool works particularly well as part of an ensemble rather than always carrying a film on his own. He explained that the character is at his best when audiences don’t know exactly when or where he will appear next, making every return feel like an event.
