Ryan Reynolds Says Deadpool Will Be a Supporting Player in His Next Film

The move signals a shift toward ensemble use of the character after his 2024 MCU blockbuster.

Overview

  • Reynolds, in a Sunday Today interview, said he has "some stuff kind of written" and does not plan to center Deadpool again, calling him a supporting character who works best in a group.
  • He described the idea as early-stage development and there is no official greenlight or announcement from Marvel Studios.
  • Trade reports have outlined an ensemble concept that could pair Deadpool with several X‑Men in an X‑Force‑style team, though those details remain unconfirmed.
  • Industry outlets have also suggested possible appearances in Avengers: Doomsday or Secret Wars, which Marvel has not verified.
  • The update follows Deadpool & Wolverine’s $1.3 billion global haul that brought the character into the MCU, and aligns with Reynolds’ view that Deadpool should stay an outsider rather than join the Avengers or the X‑Men.
