Ryan Reynolds never misses an opportunity to swipe right on Deadpool 3 co-star Hugh Jackman, this time taking aim at X-Men Origins: Wolverine
When it comes to the list of the worst superhero movies of the past 30 years, among the less than heroic bunch there would be a few X-Men movies including X-Men Origins: Wolverine. The first to give Jackman a solo lead as Wolverine, the 2009 film was also notable for bringing the first Ryan ReynoldsWade Wilson aka Deadpool on the big screen, but he was so badly judged that even Reynolds used him Deadpool 2Post scene to “go back and fix it” post. Reynolds has now clarified where things went wrong in the critically panned film – it was all because Hugh Jackman.
Through some true fate twist, Reynolds and Jackman will soon team up together as Deadpool and Wolverine in Deadpool 3And it’s fair to say they’ve come a long way in the past decade. However, with the never-ending Twitter “war”, it’s no surprise that Reynolds would want to let everyone know that he takes absolutely no responsibility for how their first movie went viral. Tell diverse:
“Everyone expects me to rip off Hugh Jackman, but I will say he was one of the first movie stars I ever worked with, back in 2007, on an absolute dumpster fire called ‘X-Men Origins: Wolverine’ — that star was it.”
Deadpool 3 can right all wrongs with its X-Men origin: Wolverine is brought into the world.
There are many movies that bring with them high levels of expectations. Avengers Endgame, Avatar: Waterway, Zack Snyder’s Justice League are just a few examples in recent years. Some pay off, some don’t. In November 2024, Deadpool 3 It will join this group of films and for many fans, there is no way it can fail to please with its blend of the Marvel multiverse and variants of the Wolverine and Reynolds character with the entire Disney universe pointing at it in all its R-rated glory.
The movie is certainly a “full circle” affair, and there’s currently no idea what the new movie will mean for the characters in the future. For Jackman, this will likely be the last time he plays Wolverine, but for Reynolds, the Deadpool bandwagon could keep rolling for a few more years. Reynolds previously discussed the challenge of getting this epic collaboration right. He said:
“I think it’s a tightrope walk. I mean most of these movies are always on a tightrope, so in this case, though, you have a collision of two beautiful iconic characters that exist in the Marvel Ancillary Universe [laughs] – We’re in the Marvel Cinematic Universe at this point. It really kind of finds a way to serve both of those characters that feels extraordinarily authentic to both of them, and I think those two faults would really mend in a great way.”
Directed by Shawn Levy and written by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, Deadpool 3 It is currently scheduled to be released on November 8, 2024.
