Ryan Reynolds is exploring a possible ‘Deadpool’ / ‘X-Men’ movie

Ryan Reynolds is exploring a possible ‘Deadpool’ / ‘X-Men’ movie.

The 48-year-old actor is believed to be in the early stages of writing an ensemble movie featuring Deadpool and three or four ‘X-Men’ characters.

It is believed that Deadpool would be a minor character in the movie, giving the ‘X-Men’ characters more screentime.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, “Reynolds is said to believe that keeping his f-bomb wielding anti-hero more on the sidelines could allow for the X-Men characters to be used in unexpected ways”.

Reynolds’ film would be completely separate to the potential ‘X-Men’ movie that Michael Lesslie is writing for Marvel Studios.

Ryan has previously starred in 2016’s ‘Deadpool’, 2018’s ‘Deadpool 2’ and the 2024 movie ‘Deadpool Wolverine’ with Hugh Jackman.
