Deadpool and Wolverine's release date is set for July 2024, but it won't be surrounded by numerous other Marvel movies. In the past, Marvel would release multiple films per year. But in 2024, the company has just this one movie on the docket. The film previously known as Deadpool 3 is the only Marvel film coming in 2024 as part of Disney's strategy of releasing fewer, better films every year. Or at least that's the idea. In any event, the Deadpool series is a fan favorite, and with Hugh Jackman joining the film and a big cast of cameos, expectations are high.
What is Deadpool and Wolverine about?
Deadpool and Wolverine got its first trailer during the Super Bowl in February, and this provided a first glimpse at the story and tone. Not much has been confirmed about the story so far, but the official synopsis says Wolverine is "recovering from his injuries" when he comes upon Deadpool. Together, they team up to "defeat a common enemy." It remains to be seen who that foe might be. The Super Bowl trailer revealed that the Time Variance Authority (TVA) is involved in some capacity, and that likely means there will be some multiverse elements to this story, as has become commonplace in recent Marvel films.
Who cast?
Cast members from the previous Deadpool films – including Morena Baccarin, Leslie Uggams, Karan Soni, and Brianna Hildebrand – will return. Meanwhile, Succession’s Matthew Macfadyen joined the cast alongside Corrin.
Deadpool & Wolverine will be the first time the movie will be made under Disney’s Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) umbrella, as a part of Phase Five of the company’s superhero journey.
The two previous films were made by 21st Century Fox, which was acquired by Disney in March 2019.
Marvel lead producer Kevin Feige has assured fans that the film will remain R-rated (probably a 15 in the UK) and won’t be a “Disney-fied Deadpool”.
