The impact of the 2023 actor and writer strikes in Hollywood is still being felt in 2024 as many big productions faced significant delays.
However, there are still some major, highly-anticipated movies that will be released this year, including Deadpool & Wolverine.
The first two Deadpool movies are in the top 10 highest-grossing R-rated movies in history, earning $782 million and $785m respectively.
Deadpool & Wolverine will be the first entry in the series to be included within the Marvel Cinematic Universe and will be the first MCU movie to hold an R-rating.
In August of 2022, it was announced that Hugh Jackman would make a sensational return as Wolverine despite the character's death in Logan, having apparently been convinced to return by his pal, Ryan Reynolds.
What is the plot of Deadpool & Wolverine?
The official premise reads:
'Wolverine is recovering from his injuries when he crosses paths with the loudmouth, Deadpool. They team up to defeat a common enemy.'
From the trailer, we see that Wade Wilson is recruited by the Time Variance Authority.
Deadpool & Wolverine cast
Deadpool 3 stars Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, Morena Baccarin, Brianna Hildebrand, Jennifer Garner, Leslie Uggams, Karan Soni, Shioli Kustana, Emma Corrin and Matthew Macfadyen.
Deadpool & Wolverine trailer
This trailer is certainly a bit of a tease in that we don't yet see Jackman turn up as Wolverine until the last second, and even then you don't see his face. So, we can expect another trailer soon in which we see the Aussie actor donning the famous yellow and blue suit.
In typical Deadpool fashion, there are a few meta nods to the camera. He even described himself as the saviour of the MCU, a 'Marvel Jesus'.
What is Deadpool & Wolverine's budget?
Deadpool 3 has a reported budget of $195m.
Who will cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine?
It has already been confirmed that Jennifer Garner will reprise her Marvel role of Elektra, but several other major cameos have been rumoured that include Liev Schrieber or Tyler Mane as Sabretooth, Daniel Radcliffe as an alternate version of Wolverine and Taylor Swift as either Dazzler or Lady Deadpool.
“Yeah, I’ve heard that one. I love it (the gossip)," Reynolds responded to the Vancouver Sun when asked about Swift appearing.
"I think it is a sign of how eager people are to get a peek behind the curtain in this world. Every single one of these secrets and spoilers will be revealed on July 26.”
What is Deadpool & Wolverine's release date?
Deadpool 3 will be released on 25 July 2024.
