Corrin, who uses they/them pronouns, expressed their excitement by posting an Instagram Story in which they're holding Marvel's foul-tongued Merc with the Mouth in their hand.

Even with so few details on the film, there's undoubtedly buzz around Deadpool 3. Hugh Jackman, who retired his Wolverine character after playing the role several times across the X-Men movie franchise, is now un-retiring the adamantium-clawed mutant to reunite with Reynolds.

Jackman and Reynolds appeared together as Logan and Deadpool in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, a film both players like to poke fun at from time to time — including onscreen in the Deadpool movies.

The stars have teased how this movie now fits into the mythology of the Marvel Cinematic Universe of the Avengers. "Logan takes place in 2029. Totally separate thing. Logan died in Logan. Not touching that," Reynolds made clear.

Jackman said of the Wolverine-Deadpool frenemy relationship, "I'm just talking from my perspective. [Logan is] frustrated by him [and] wants to be a million miles away from him or wants to punch him in the head. Unfortunately, he can't be a million miles away from him in this movie, so I'm probably going to punch him in the head a lot."

Deadpool 3 is currently on the docket for release on Nov. 8, 2024.
