Ryan Reynolds Wants A Deadpool And Wolverine Movie
Ryan Reynolds rallied the internet to help bring Deadpool a proper solo movie, and now he's hoping to do it again for another worthwhile cause.
Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Reynolds said he'll need help to bring Deadpool and Wolverine back together on the big screen. Although he probably wouldn't have a hard time convincing the studio execs, bringing Hugh Jackman on board could prove tricker. Logan will be Jackman's last performance as the iconic X-Men character.
"I want Deapdool and Wolverine in a movie together," Reynolds said. "What we're gonna have to do is convince Hugh. If anything, I'm going to need to do what I can to get my internet friends back on board to help rally another cause down the line."
Of course, the comic book anti-heroes met onscreen before, sort of. Reynolds appeared as Wade Wilson in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. However, his character was a far cry from the version we met in Deadpool a few years later. In fact, Wilson's mouth was sewn shut.
But Reynolds said he wants to see the reunion happen for another reason, too. "Hugh Jackman is one of the best human beings," he said. "Part of the reason I want to do a Deadpool/Wolverine movie is not just because I think the two would light the screen on fire, but I genuinely love the guy."
While it might just be wishful thinking at this point, Reynolds said production will soon begin on Deadpool 2, and plans for Deadpool 3 are already underway.
