Deadpool & Wolverine has its own page now, no need to use Deadpool 2 page to discuss production history of another work.


With the Disney-Fox merger, the franchise's future became somewhat uncertain in spite of the commercial and critical success of both movies. Originally, an ''X-Force'' film directed by Drew Goddard was slated to directly follow this movie, with a focus more on the other characters in addition to Deadpool, but ''Deadpool'' co-creator Rob Liefeld has since indicated that the project is no longer moving forward. A new ''Deadpool'' movie was eventually confirmed by Ryan Reynolds to be in development in December 2019, after the merger completed. Creator/MarvelStudios is taking over the franchise from this point onward, with Fox's Emma Watts (who oversaw development of the first two films) [[https://deadline.com/2019/07/emma-watts-staying-fox-disney-kingsman-avatar-ridley-scott-james-cameron-1202650915/ no longer being involved]], ceding creative control over to Creator/KevinFeige.

On November 20, 2020, it was announced that the third film would be written by Emmy Award-winners Wendy Molyneux and Lizzy Molyneux-Logelin, best known for their work on ''WesternAnimation/BobsBurgers'' and their own show ''WesternAnimation/TheGreatNorth''. On March 11, 2022, it was announced that Reese and Wernick will also be returning to write, while Creator/ShawnLevy, who previously worked with Reynolds on ''Film/FreeGuy'' and ''Film/TheAdamProject'', was confirmed to direct. The Reynolds-led movie is confirmed to be R-rated, a first for a Marvel Studios production, and will be at least partially set in the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse, although it remains to be seen if it will be a reboot of sorts or a true sequel to ''Deadpool 2''. The film was confirmed in September 2022 to be released on September 6, 2024, and with it, the confirmation that Creator/HughJackman will reprise his role as ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} in the film. On February 11, 2024 its title was officially confirmed as ''Film/DeadpoolAndWolverine'' with a teaser released during the Super Bowl that year.

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: Wade's habit of trying to be funny all the time, distracting himself and making jokes during a very serious situation, such as a shooting, this time has a tragic consequence: Vanessa dies. It happens like this: He tries to make a joke to ease the tension, even though he knows he still has at least one armed man behind him (#1 error), he throws the knife at him without even looking (#2 error), he misses and the man shoots Vanessa by accident, apparently having forgotten after so long being near-immortal that his "tactics" are completely suicidal if you're a normal person and that people around you who don't have a healing factor can die (#3 error... and they die very often). He usually ignores this with his immature behavior, but this time it was the love of his life that died and he absolutely cannot laugh about it!
