It looks like Ryan Reynolds will be putting on the Deadpool suit once again.
The actor confirmed during a recent appearance at Fanatics Fest 2026 that another Deadpool movie is coming, which would follow the box office success of 2024’s Deadpool & Wolverine.
“There’s a few really deep cuts that I think are missing behind the movies. I think there’s a few deep cuts missing from some of the comics. There’s certainly some stuff that, you know, I love that Fabian Nicieza [co-creator of Deadpool] wrote that is incredible. Gerry Duggan, who was a friend, was an incredible comic writer,” Reynolds said onstage, via a video shared on X. “There’s stuff upcoming. There’s eventually, you know, remotely another Deadpool film. It’s going to be great.”
The actor-producer didn’t give any additional details on whether the film would be another solo Deadpool installment or more of an ensemble film, with his chaotic antihero becoming more of a supporting player.
The Hollywood Reporter has reached out to Marvel for comment.
Last year, THR exclusively reported that Reynolds was exploring ideas for another movie in the franchise; however, it would feature X-Men characters. The actor has also previously stated that he did not see another solo Deadpool movie in his future.
“Centering Deadpool works best if you take everything away from him and put his back against the wall. I can’t really do that again,” he told THR in 2024. “A fourth time feels a little iterative and redundant. That doesn’t mean sacrificing fun. There is still an arc for Deadpool which is fulfilling and powerful.”
When Deadpool & Wolverine, starring Reynolds and Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, was released in 2024, it went on to become the top-grossing R-rated movie of all time, collecting over $1.3 billion globally. The film followed 2016’s Deadpool and 2019’s Deadpool 2, which were also massive box office successes.
