Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman in the same film? Yes, please! Wolverine and Deadpool in the same movie? Oh, definitely yes!
It seems Reynolds himself has the same wishes as us, after expressing his desire to see Jackman cameo as Wolverine in the upcoming DEADPOOL movie: “God I hope so, that would be really nice,” the actor told Australia’s news.com.au while promoting WOMAN IN GOLD.
“I dunno, we’ll see,” Reynolds continued. “It seems like he’s open to it, but it’s gonna be more of a scheduling issue than anything else.”
This would no doubt be a dram combination for many fans as the two characters have such an intertwined history based on their origins as experiments conducted on mutants in the Weapon X programme.
That origin was explored in spin-off movie ‘X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE’ where Reynolds portrayed Deadpool in that film and thanks to that role, he remained fan-favourite to play him again in another film which they hoped would pay more respect to the character.
As much as we would love to see the two characters reunited on the big screen again (and the actors) it would be hard for Jackman to provide a window of opportunity to shoot as we reported that he has already declared that he will be hanging up his claws as the mutant in 2017’s follow-up to THE WOLVERINE.
DEADPOOL is scheduled for release on February 12th, 2016.
