It sounds like Hugh Jackman’s role as Wolverine in Deadpool 3 might be bigger than first thought.
In a recent interview between Variety, Jackman, and Deadpool actor Ryan Reynolds, the latter spoke about his excitement about bringing the characters together on screen, saying, “Oh my God, I’m thrilled. It’s like old home week. To get to be on set with one of my closest friends each and every day is a dream come true. But to do it with these two iconic characters side by side, that’s beyond our wildest dreams.”

Reynolds apparently first spoke to Marvel Studios president Kevin Keige three and a half years ago following Disney’s acquisition of Fox, where the actor pushed to bring in Wolverine. “It wasn’t possible then. For this to be happening now is pretty damn exciting.”
