A Deadpool 3 fan-made poster imagines the Marvel Studios’ movie. Ever since he exploded onto the big screen in 2016, the chaotic antics of the Merc With a Mouth have been in high demand, as fans can’t seem to get enough of the highly popular character. Given the first movie in the franchise went on to become the highest-grossing R-rated film of all time (a feat that was later surpassed by Joker), the concept of a sequel was a no-brainer. It’s now been exactly two years since fans were last able to see Ryan Reynolds portray Deadpool on the big screen, and to say that hopes for a third movie are reaching massive proportions is putting it mildly.
With Disney’s acquisition of the franchise now complete, there has been much discussion over what exactly lies in store for Deadpool. For his part, Reynolds has previously stated he’s excited to now be involved with Disney. The fact that Disney has said the famed R-rated series won’t be rebooted was encouraging news for those who just want to see Reynolds get back to playing the character he helped build into a global phenomenon. Unfortunately, when Deadpool 3 will arrive and what it might look like is currently unknown.
As is typically the case with long waits on sequels, fans will occupy themselves with much discussion, conjecture, and debate over what the eventual final product will be like. And, of course, there is always fan art to help offer a visual representation of the next installment. This is the case with Twitter user Apexform. The Deadpool fan has managed to create a pretty realistic looking poster for Deadpool 3, despite the fact that nothing is really known about a third movie. The end result is a simple poster that does a great job of rejuvenating hope for Deadpool 3 arriving soon. Check it out:
Recently, Deadpool co-creator Rob Liefeld provided some sobering news about the possibility of a third film. Stating he didn’t believe Marvel was currently working on a third installment, Liefeld went as far as to say he doesn’t see Deadpool 3 happening for at least another five years. For fans of any franchise, let alone one as hugely popular as Deadpool, five years feels like an eternity. Disney has a lot on its plate right now, particularly with the massive financial hit the corporation has taken in light of the coronavirus pandemic. Some would suggest Deadpool 3 is just the right film to help lift box office revenues back up once lockdown measures are lifted and theaters resume business. But with its abundance of Marvel characters, Disney has much more to keep it busy.
It’s hard to say exactly why Deadpool 3 isn’t a priority for Disney at the moment, but even with its promise to keep Deadpool an R-rated affair, the Mouse House’s reputation for wholesome, family entertainment could be what’s standing in the way of Deadpool 3. There is a backlog of characters and films in the MCU that Disney still needs to make, and this is also likely why Deadpool 3 has yet to be made. Still, one can’t help but be suspicious that Deadpool’s reputation precedes it, and Disney is more interested in focusing on the franchises it can alter to its liking. For now, at least, it appears that Apexform’s fan-made poster is the closest thing Deadpool fans will get to a third film in the lucrative series.
