Ryan Reynolds shared the first look at Dogpool last month, but a new image of who is sure to be the break-out star of Deadpool 3 has dropped!
Faces only a mother could love. Adorable. In the comics, Dogpool became a member of the Deadpool Corps after being experimented on by the Mascara-X Project, which left him with the ability to heal himself. It’s not clear if Dogpool will be some sort of variant in Deadpool 3 or simply Wade Wilson’s pet, but he’s one good boy.
Production on Deadpool 3 was well underway during the WGA strike but was shut down when the SAG-AFTRA strike began. Now that both strikes have concluded, shooting on the much-anticipated sequel has resumed. We even saw a few spoilery set photos yesterday.
In addition to Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool, the upcoming sequel will see the return of Morena Baccarin as Vanessa, Leslie Uggams as Blind Al, Karan Soni as Dopinder, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Shioli Kutsuna as Yukio, Stefan Kapičić as the voice of Colossus, and Rob Delaney as Peter. Deadpool 3 will also star Emma Corrin, who is expected to play the villain, and Matthew Macfadyen in an undisclosed role.
The biggest addition to the Deadpool 3 cast is Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, who finally broke down after being pestered by Ryan Reynolds for so many years. Reynolds said that the sequel will present a new challenge for Jackman. “I think [Jackman] was excited and what we pitched him was enough of a divergence from the character that he knows and the character that he’s left behind,” Reynolds said, “that it gives him something completely new to play and something that he’s really excited to do.” Clearly, all that pestering paid off. “I mean, I never stopped,” Reynolds said. “I was just pestering him like a gnat over the last many years. I actually just think… I believe in timing … and I think he was ready.“
Deadpool 3 will hit theaters on July 26, 2024.
