Ryan Reynolds is causing an upgrade full of adamantium in Deadpool 3 after he was conspicuously absent from a recent Disney convention earlier this month, D23

In a new update Reynolds posted on his YouTube channel, he hinted that he was experiencing a bit of writer’s block for the upcoming trilogy which will be Merc with the Mouth’s first foray into the Marvel Cinematic Universe since Disney bought 20th Century Fox in 2019.

In an apparent attempt to throw viewers a bone, he casually asks someone off-camera, “Hey, Hugh, do you want to play Wolverine one more time?”

Hugh Jackman then enters the frame, walking briskly in the background, and replies while eating an apple, “Yeah, sure, Ryan.”

This will be news that will no doubt have comic book movie fans over the moon since Jackman previously proclaimed Logan be your swan song of the self-healing mutant character.

In fact, Jackman’s portrayal of the former mercenary known as Weapon X, whose real name is James Howlett, is so beloved, his debut performance in the 2000s. X Men it immediately catapulted the actor into being a household name.

Since then, Jackman’s Wolverine has never strayed far from being a major highlight for most movies that took place in the X-Men universe, even when the movies faltered here and there. With Loganthe film had the distinction of being the first superhero film to be nominated for an Oscar for screenwriting.

During years, Logan it was considered a perfect high point in which to leave the character. However, Jackman has hinted at a possible return of the character within the MCU, as Forbes has pointed out.

We were already excited to see Deadpool 3 even before this update, but Jackman is on board as the claw-wielding bad-tempered hero who makes us foam at the mouth with excitement.

Deadpool 3 is scheduled to hit theaters on September 6, 2024.
