The upcoming movie “Deadpool & Wolverine,” coming out on July 26th, 2024, has fans super excited. Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman are back in their famous roles as Deadpool and Wolverine.
The trailer shows some awesome scenes and action that fans love. With amazing $8M pre-release sales and an exciting story, this movie promises to be a big hit and could lead to more Marvel movies.
Even though we’ve known about this movie for a while, the excitement is still growing. The movie was originally set for 2025, but they managed to solve all the problems and release it earlier. And now there are rumors about the next Deadpool movie, Deadpool 4.
This article takes a closer look at this new Deadpool 4 movie, its development, possible storyline, and more.
Is the Deadpool 4 Movie in the Making?
While Marvel Studios has not officially announced plans for a Deadpool 4 movie, director Shawn Levy discussed the possibilities in an interview with Deadline.
Levy hinted at the making of a Deadpool 4 movie but said he’s not sure what will happen next. Usually, he would have to act like he knows less than he does, but this time he honestly doesn’t know. However, he really enjoyed working on Deadpool because it lets filmmakers be really creative in a way that’s different from usual.
Levy said it’s been tough but satisfying because Deadpool lets them tell stories in bold and new ways, breaking the usual rules.
So, right now, there’s no confirmation about Deadpool 4, but it would make sense to continue the story after Deadpool and Wolverine come out. We’ll just have to wait and see what happens after Deadpool and Wolverine are released.
What could be the direction of the Deadpool 4 story?
If Deadpool and Wolverine movie does really well in theaters and with critics, it wouldn’t be surprising if they decide to make Deadpool 4. Also, now that Deadpool is part of the MCU, there are a lot of ways they could make new stories where he gets used to being there.
Director Shawn Levy has said he wants to explore Deadpool’s bold, rule-breaking style more, which suggests there could be more movies. He’s even talked about working with Ryan Reynolds and Tom Holland on a Deadpool and Spider-Man movie.
In the comics, Deadpool and Spider-Man already have a great dynamic, so teaming them up could be a big hit for Marvel Studios.
Also, there is a possibility that Deadpool 4 could be part of Phase 7, where the X-Men are set to shine. There’s also talk that more X-Men characters could be involved since they’re all part of the same universe.
But, basically, whether they make more Deadpool movies depends on how things go with Deadpool and Wolverine.
Apart from Deadpool 4, Director Shawn Levy is also rumored to have other projects in the works.
He’s reportedly been asked to direct Avengers 5, but Marvel hasn’t confirmed this. Moreover, in a Deadline interview, Shawn Levy also mentioned his Star Wars project, which he signed on for in November 2022. He’s been optimistic about it but has been focused on his upcoming film with Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman.
However, whether we actually get the Deadpool 4 movie, is something that only time can tell.
