by

Okay, so everyone’s wondering if Ryan Reynolds is going to be back as Deadpool in the MCU! Here’s the newest info about Deadpool 4 that I’ve found.

What is the latest Deadpool 4 update?

Ryan Reynolds is currently concentrating his efforts on making the next Deadpool film, according to Puck News. This announcement arrives as his wife, Blake Lively, is involved in a legal dispute with director Justin Baldoni regarding a claim of sexual harassment.

It’s currently unclear what role, if any, Ryan Reynolds will have in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He wasn’t included in the initial cast announcement for Avengers: Doomsday, but rumors suggest he might appear as Reed Richards. As of now, though, Marvel hasn’t confirmed anything.

According to a July 2025 report in Variety, Marvel isn’t rushing to start work on a fourth Deadpool movie. They’re currently prioritizing the release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day and Avengers: Doomsday, which are planned for 2026.

In December 2024, Ryan Reynolds mentioned he had further concepts for future Deadpool and Wolverine appearances within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But, these ideas didn’t focus on Wade Wilson (Deadpool) as the main character.

Ryan Reynolds shared that while he has several ideas for new projects, none of them currently focus on Deadpool as the main character. He believes Deadpool works best as part of a team, and he’s particularly interested in continuing the dynamic between Deadpool and Wolverine. Reynolds feels that to make a compelling Deadpool story, the character needs to be challenged and vulnerable, something he’s already explored in previous films. He’s hesitant to repeat that formula for a fourth time, as it might feel repetitive, but he assures fans there’s still a meaningful and satisfying story arc possible for the character, even while keeping things fun.

Ryan Reynolds most recently played Deadpool in the 2024 film Deadpool & Wolverine. Directed by Shawn Levy, the movie paired Reynolds’ character, Wade Wilson, with Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine. Deadpool & Wolverine quickly became a global hit, earning $1.3 billion at the box office and becoming the highest-grossing R-rated movie ever.
