"Deadpool & Wolverine" Teaser Released

Ryan Reynolds shared the latest teaser for Marvel’s highly-anticipated movie "Deadpool & Wolverine". 

The minute-long clip offers more footage of Dogpool and the villain’s Giant Man hideaway, it’s a pair of legs — and which famous person they’re attached to — that has Marvel fans arguing on social media.

Th

e new teaser confirms that the character of Lady Deadpool — a multiverse variant of Reynolds’ antihero — is in the new movie by showing the legs of her suit. Still, it’s who’s behind the mask that has people speculating: A large swath of the people who comment on these types of things believe the role will be filled by Reynolds’ wife Blake Lively, or Taylor Swift, a known buddy of Lively and Reynolds.

“I hope everyone gets to work with their best friend at least once in their lifetime,” Reynolds added in the video’s caption, further stoking speculation. “I know I can’t wait to finally do it.”

Dazzler, a superhero who moonlights as a pop singer, on the big screen. Swift-asDazzler rumors date back to 2015 when she posed with the producer and cast of X-Men: Apocalypse.

"Deadpool 3" has been in development for years but suffered a setback by the 2019 Disney/Fox merger and further delay by the SAG-AFTRA strike last year.

It was officially confirmed in December 2019 and marks the first Marvel Studios project to use characters now available to it after Disney purchased 21st Century Fox, which gave Marvel access to mutants, including “Deadpool”, “The X-Men”, and “The Fantastic Four”.

The franchise is the top-grossing X-Men movies of all time, with 2016’s "Deadpool" and 2018’s follow-up “Deadpool 2” huge box office, earning over $1.5 billion worldwide.

The two previous “Deadpool” movies, along with the entire “X-Men” franchise, were owned and released by Fox before the $71.3 billion acquisition. 

After the acquisition, Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige quickly confirmed the franchise as a keeper for the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

“Deadpool 3” will be the first R-rated movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and also marks the first Deadpool movie in which Marvel will work hand in hand with Ryan Reynolds and Team Deadpool. 

Feige’s involvement comes after he helped revamp the Spider-Man franchise when he came on to help in the creative effort for that Sony series.

Shawn Levy is on board to direct with Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese returning to pen the threequel. Wendy Molyneux and Lizzie Molyneux-Logelin penned a previous draft. Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige joins Reynolds and Levy as producers.

Reynolds and Levy previously collaborated on the Reynolds hit comedy movie "Free Guy" and Netflix's "The Adam Project".

The latest “Deadpool” movie will be a reunion for Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, who previously starred together in 2009’s ill-fated “X-Men Origins: Wolverine.” 

Now, the threequel will bring Deadpool and Wolverine together — even though the iconic X-Men hero died at the end of 2017’s “Logan”. But characters have a way of returning from the dead in superhero movies, especially with the universe-bending rules of the MCU’s multiverse.

“Deadpool 3” also features Jennifer Garner reprising her role as the sai-wielding superhero Elektra, Morena Baccarin as Vanessa, Karan Soni as Dopinder, and Leslie Uggams as Blind Al, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead.

Emma Corrin and Matthew Macfadyen will also star in the upcoming movie.

Set to hit theaters on July 26, the pic will run for 127 minutes, or 2 hours and 7 minutes. This would make "Deadpool & Wolverine" the longest movie in the Deadpool franchise to date.

The original Deadpool (2016) had a runtime of 108 minutes (1 hour, 48 minutes), while its 2018 sequel, Deadpool 2, clocked in at 119 minutes (1 hour, 59 minutes).

Despite crossing the two-hour mark, "Deadpool & Wolverine" falls short of being the longest film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). That feat belongs to 2019's Avengers: Endgame, which boasts an epic runtime of 3 hours and 1 minute.

The second-longest MCU film to date is 2022's Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, at 2 hours and 41 minutes. Rounding out the MCU's longest films are Eternals (2 hours, 36 minutes), Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2 hours, 29 minutes), and Avengers: Infinity War (2 hours, 29 minutes).
