Ryan Reynolds‘ Wade Wilson is known for stirring the pot…and now he’s started a rumble amongst the Hollywood trades. Following a social media post shared by Ryan Reynolds sparked speculation that Deadpool was set to make an appearance in Avengers: Doomsday, THR’s Borys Kit and Aaron Couch seemingly confirmed the role in THR’s Heat Vision newsletter…and then the fun began.
Shortly after Heat Vision was published, Deadline’s Anthony D’Allesandro’s sources disputed THR’s claim, telling the reporter that nobody had “seen Reynolds on set in London, and he isn’t set to appear in the next two Avengers movies.”
Later, The Wrap’s Umberto Gonzalez supported Kit and Crouch’s original report, adding that his sources shared that “we haven’t seen that last of Deadpool, and will see him next in Avengers: Doomsday. But no one is going on the record about it — yet.”
A pair of prominent social media scoopers threw some additional fuel on the fire. My Time To Shine Hello seemed to confirm Reynolds appearance while Cryptic HD Quality indicated that the Merc with a Mouth would lead his own team in Doomsday, perhaps referring to some of The Void’s Resistance fighters from Deadpool & Wolverine.
To nobody’s surprise, Marvel is sitting out the trade war, choosing not to comment and likely waiting to make it official…or not… whenever they roll out the rest of the cast of the film.
