Ryan Reynolds Takes First Steps to Revive Deadpool and X-Men

May 03, 2025 8:55 PM

Ryan Reynolds is reportedly in the early stages of conceptualizing a new Deadpool and X-Men film, which aims to showcase Deadpool alongside three or four other X-Men characters. Rather than being the focus, Deadpool will share the spotlight and allow for these characters to be utilized in unexpected ways. This film is separate from the upcoming X-Men movie written by Michael Lesslie and appears to align with Reynolds' previous work on the low-budget Deadpool & Wolverine project. While details about which X-Men might join the Merc With a Mouth remain under wraps, Reynolds continues to explore ensemble narratives that allow other characters to shine in new adventures.

This sounds like the perfect setup for Deadpool to play the ultimate chaotic wingman to some underrated X-Men—imagine the fourth-wall-breaking roasting during team-ups. Reynolds always finds a way to keep the franchise fresh while staying true to its roots.
