00:00 "And now, for the moment I've all been waiting for."
00:05 Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we're rounding up all the rumors surrounding the highly anticipated
00:10 multiverse superhero flick Deadpool 3.
00:13 While none of these is set in stone, possible spoilers remain.
00:17 "You have questions?"
00:18 "Yes, I had a lot of questions.
00:20 I'm sure you had a lot of questions, but rest assured, we're gonna answer them right now."
00:26 Number 10.
00:27 John Cena's MCU debut.
00:29 Could DC's Peacemaker really be in Marvel's third Deadpool film?
00:39 That's the rumor.
00:40 Of course, it wouldn't be the character Peacemaker, but rather the hulking performer who portrays
00:44 the anti-hero John Cena.
00:46 This theory was sparked by an Instagram post made by Cena himself, which shows a behind-the-scenes
00:51 image from the Deadpool 3 set with Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman.
00:55 Was there any kind of caption or confirmation to go along with the post?
00:59 Nope.
01:00 This could all very well be another trolling of the fans orchestrated by star Ryan Reynolds.
01:05 Plus, if Cena were to cameo in the film, would we even be able to see him?
01:12 Number 9.
01:13 Ben Affleck's Daredevil and Jennifer Garner's Elektra.
01:16 Before he donned Batman's cape and cowl, Ben Affleck portrayed Marvel's Daredevil.
01:21 "They say your whole life flashes before your eyes when you die.
01:25 And it's true."
01:27 Affleck's 2003 superhero film teamed him with his soon-to-be ex-wife Jennifer Garner as
01:32 Elektra.
01:33 The rumor is that the actors are set to reprise their respective roles in Deadpool 3.
01:38 "So does every guy have to go through all this just to find out your name?"
01:46 Of the two, Jennifer Garner's involvement is most likely, as it was reported in The
01:51 Hollywood Reporter, a reputable trade magazine.
01:54 Meanwhile, Affleck's participation is less probable, as the actor's supposed "spotting"
02:00 on the set was explained as him visiting his kids, who in turn were visiting their mom
02:04 Garner.
02:05 It remains to be seen if both, one, or neither of them will suit up again.
02:10 "Enough.
02:11 It ends now."
02:13 Number 8.
02:14 The Loki Connection.
02:15 Seeing as how Deadpool 3 will be another multiverse tale, it's quite plausible that the film
02:20 will feature the character partially responsible for the multiverse being unleashed in the
02:24 MCU, Loki.
02:25 "Why the hell is there an alligator in here?"
02:28 "He's a Loki!"
02:29 The second season of Disney+'s Loki concluded with the god of mischief becoming the dedicated
02:34 protector of the entire multiverse.
02:36 So, with Deadpool and Wolverine traveling across timelines, it'd surely put the duo
02:41 directly on his radar, right?
02:43 Owen Wilson is also said to show up in the film as his Loki character, Mobius.
02:48 Set photos were even leaked showing TVA, or Time Variance Alliance, Minutemen.
02:53 This all but confirms that Deadpool 3 will be tied to Loki and his multiverse gang in
02:58 one way or another.
02:59 "You were right about the TVA.
03:03 You were right from the beginning."
03:05 Number 7.
03:06 Blade Reunion.
03:07 Hey, remember when Ryan Reynolds appeared alongside Marvel's Vampire Hunter in 2004's
03:12 Blade Trinity?
03:13 Don't worry, not many do.
03:15 Well, if the rumors are true, they'll be together again in Deadpool 3.
03:20 Reynolds reportedly had tension with star Wesley Snipes during the filming of Blade
03:24 Trinity, but it's been said that those issues are now behind them.
03:27 "Welcome to the honeycomb hideout.
03:29 How do you bankroll this operation?"
03:32 "I date a lot of older men."
03:34 Although, it may not be Snipes' version of Blade making an appearance.
03:39 That's because there is chatter that newly cast Blade actor Mahershala Ali will make
03:43 his long-awaited first appearance in the film.
03:46 Ali's Blade reboot has been plagued with production issues and delays, so his arrival
03:50 would be a big deal.
03:52 "There's still a war going on, and I have a job to do."
03:56 Number 6.
03:57 Scarlet Witch Resurrected.
03:58 "I don't even know who you are."
04:01 "You will."
04:03 We can thank a viral Reddit post for this rumor.
04:06 When Reddit user Spiderbyte posted a series of so-called Deadpool 3 plot leaks, he got
04:11 fans in a frenzy over the supposed return of the Scarlet Witch.
04:14 "Thanks for the lesson.
04:18 But I don't need you to tell me who I am."
04:25 The post indicated that Scarlet Witch's spirit would rise from the dead and end up in an
04:30 alternate Earth counterpart's body.
04:32 Then she would alter the world to one where mutants make up most of the population.
04:36 Add an evil-intentioned Magneto to the mix, and Deadpool would be forced to assemble a
04:41 team to stop him.
04:43 Sounds exciting!
04:44 Just one problem.
04:45 The user Spiderbyte says he made it up.
04:48 Regardless, many continue to believe the rumor, seemingly under a spell of some kind.
04:54 "This is going very well."
05:00 Number 5.
05:01 X-23 Back For More.
05:03 "Hey, I asked you a question.
05:05 Who are you?"
05:06 "You know who she is, don't you?"
05:09 "No, I don't."
05:11 "Does she remind you of anybody?"
05:13 It's also heavily rumored that Daphne Keen, the young actress who appeared alongside Hugh
05:17 Jackman in 2017's Logan, will reprise her role as Laura Kinney or X-23 in Deadpool 3.
05:24 The word in Hollywood is that Marvel Studios was negotiating with Keen to appear in the
05:28 film in early 2023, but then the actor's strike started and all talks stopped.
05:33 Now that the labor dispute is over, the latest buzz is that Keen and her people have closed
05:38 the deal.
05:39 "You got your Rebecca, your Delilah, your blah blah blah, whatever.
05:42 Anything you ask for, you've got it."
05:45 As for what Keen's X-23 could possibly be up to in the film remains to be seen, but
05:50 it would mark the first time the feisty character has been seen on screen in over seven years.
06:04 Number 4.
06:06 Multiple Wolverines.
06:07 In the multiverse, there can exist a multitude of different versions of a person.
06:12 "This is unbelievable."
06:13 "This is the lobby of..."
06:14 "Welcome to Spider Society."
06:20 And in this rumor, it's said that we'll get plenty of alternate Wolverines in Deadpool
06:24 3.
06:25 "Ladies and gentlemen, tonight's winner and still king of the cage, the Wolverine."
06:34 Supposedly, the film would see Ryan Reynolds' Wade Wilson traveling through time and space
06:39 to find the perfect Logan.
06:40 The Wolverines he comes across are said to be different in small and big ways.
06:45 Actors Karl Urban, Taron Egerton, and Daniel Radcliffe are all rumored to be playing versions
06:50 of the clawed hero in the movie.
06:52 The three actors have been heavily talked about as replacements for Jackman's Wolverine
06:56 in the MCU, so this would certainly make for a big serving of fan service.
07:02 "Hey, hey, it's me.
07:04 Prove it.
07:05 You're a dick."
07:06 "Okay."
07:07 Number 3.
07:10 Taylor Swift is Dazzler
07:16 She's the biggest pop star in the universe.
07:19 She's also said to make her superhero debut in Deadpool 3.
07:22 Yep, Taylor Swift is rumored to appear as the fan favorite Dazzler.
07:31 Dazzler is a mutant and part of the X-Men franchise.
07:35 The character is also often portrayed as a professional singer in the comics.
07:39 Seems like a perfect match to us.
07:46 Making this rumor extra plausible is Swift's public friendship with star Ryan Reynolds
07:50 and his wife Blake Lively.
07:52 Taylor is also said to be friendly with Deadpool 3 director Sean Levy.
07:56 Of all the speculated cameos, this one surely makes the most sense.
08:01 And we say, let Tara's mutant era begin.
08:11 Number 2.
08:12 A Mighty Movie Trolling
08:14 The Deadpool movies are known to take shots at just about anyone and everyone.
08:28 The fourth wall breaking humor is a staple of the character and the franchise.
08:32 And we don't expect it to be any different in this third installment.
08:42 The rumor is, however, that Deadpool 3 will deliver its biggest trolling yet.
08:47 And its prey will be Avengers Endgame.
08:50 Yep.
08:51 Talk is that this Deadpool outing is expected to feature several parodies of one of the
08:56 most iconic movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
08:59 As you'll recall, Endgame wrapped up years of storylines and made nearly $3 billion in
09:04 the process.
09:13 We can totally picture a Deadpool portal scene now.

09:33 The X-Men Cometh
09:40 With Deadpool himself being part of the X-Men universe, it's likely we'll see many familiar
09:45 faces from the uncanny superhero team.
09:47 Word is that characters Colossus, Negasonic Teenage Warhead, and Yukio are set to return.
09:53 But that's just the tip of the iceberg, as James Marsden, Famke Janssen, and Halle Berry
09:58 are all rumored to suit up again as Cyclops, Jean Grey, and Storm.
10:09 Could there be more from the Fox-era X-Films?
10:12 If the rumors are true, yes.
10:14 Even X2 baddie William Stryker, played by Succession star Brian Cox, has been speculated
10:19 to return.
10:20 There is also word of Channing Tatum appearing as Gambit, a character he had long been attached
10:25 to portray.
10:26 When it comes to Deadpool 3 rumors, you can say X marks the spot.
