During his appearance on an episode of Variety's Awards Circuit Podcast, mentioned that he's going to be spending 2025 writing a non-Marvel project that will involve Levy and Jackman's participation. In his words:
Ryan Reynolds didn't specify if this is a movie that has already been greenlit by a studio or if it's something he's crafting on his own that will be pitched at a later date. You also may recall that in February 2023, it was reported that Reynolds was working on a boy band reunion comedy that Levy would produce, and that was followed in December by word Levy being tapped to direct Reynolds in an international heist comedy for Netflix. Is it possible what Reynolds is teasing is one of these previously-revealed projects, and now Hugh Jackman has come aboard?
It may be a while until that information is disclosed to the public, but considering how well Deadpool & Wolverine has performed, I'm surely not alone in, at the very least, being intrigued by what these three men can do together in a non-Marvel setting, while still hoping they can all come back for a hypothetical Deadpool 4. The threequel was met with largely positive critical reception, including our own Eric Eisenberg giving it 3.5 out of 5 stars in his Deadpool & Wolverine review. In an even bigger display of success, Deadpool 3 has made over $1.3 billion worldwide, making it the second-highest grossing movie on the 2024 release schedule, trailing only behind Inside Out 2.
Even if Deadpool 4 isn't on the table, that doesn't necessarily mean we've seen the last of Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman playing Wade Wilson and Logan, respectively. After all, Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars will climactically bring The Multiverse Saga to a close, meaning various characters from other corners of the Marvel multiverse will likely appear. Maybe that could include Deadpool and Wolverine, but if that's not a possibility either, at last there's this mystery movie to look forward to between them and Shawn Levy.
Deadpool & Wolverine is available to buy digitally and on physical media now, and it will be streamable with a Disney+ subscription starting on November 12. Once specific details about the untitled movie Ryan Reynolds is writing come to light, we'll pass them along.
