After Deadpool & Wolverine brought Ryan Reynolds" Merc with a Mouth into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, speculation as to when and how the character may reappear reached an all-time high. Recently, Reynolds addressed the character"s future in Marvel and how he could fit into the franchise"s existing teams. Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, the actor explained:
[indent] "There are no updates to share just yet. But I trust Kevin and [Marvel exec] Lou D’Esposito with my life. The character trait I love most about Deadpool is that he’s a fanboy. His enthusiasm and longing to be part of a team is really endearing to me. It’s his overarching wish-fulfillment story. But I don’t think he should ever be an Avenger or an X-Man. If he becomes either, we’re at the end."
[/indent]When the interviewer prompted him with "Does that mean the character won’t ever be in an Avengers film?," Reynolds exclaimed "just the opposite." He further clarified:
[indent] "I think Deadpool works so well appearing with the X-Men and Avengers, but he always needs to stay an outsider. His ultimate dream is to be accepted and appreciated. But he can’t be accepted. His coping mechanism of deflecting shame through humor works only when used to pave over his many inadequacies. If and when he does become an Avenger or X-Man, we’re at the end of his journey."
