Spider-Senses should be tingling wildly this morning becauseDeadpool & WolverinedirectorShawn Levywould “love to make” a movie featuring the friendly neighborhood webslinger and the Merc with a Mouth. Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman’s highly anticipated team-up in the Marvel Cinematic Universe,Deadpool & Wolverine, is still a month away, but the film’s director is already thinking about bringing Reynolds' anti-hero and Tom Holland’sSpider-Mantogether on the Silver Screen. Levy said in an interview with Total Film magazine (viaGamesRadar+):
“The thing about Deadpool is I think he makes everything more interesting because of his audacity.But, boy,I’d sure love to see Deadpool and Spidey.That’s a movie I’d love to make.I feel like Tom Holland would run circles around everyone else.”
Deadpool & Wolverine
A follow-up to the highly successful Deadpool and Deadpool 2 films starring Ryan Reynolds as the Merc with a Mouth. The third film will be the first in the franchise to be developed under the Marvel Studios banner following Disney’s acquisition of 20th Century Fox.
Word is thatLevy is actually being courted to helmAvengers 5,but whether that comes to fruition or not remains to be seen. Wade Wilson, aka the chimichanga-eating Deadpool, got a taste for time traveling in the anti-hero’s last big-screen adventure in 2018. And inDeadpool & Wolverine, Marvel’s multiverse will be on full display. Plus, since Holland’s Peter Parker, aka Spidey, has already gotten a taste of the multiverse inSpider-Man: No Way Home, it would be easy enough to bring these two Marvel titans together in the MCU.
Producer Wants Deadpool & She-Hulk Villain to Face Off
Deadpool & Wolverineeyes a massive opening weekendat the domestic box office as long-range predictions forecast that the film will make between $200 million and $240 million to start its theatrical run. And while Shawn Levy would be interested in mirroring the comic books — bringing Deadpool and Spider-Man together —She-Hulk: Attorney at Law’sWendy Jacobson wants to see Wade Wilson square off against actress Jameela Jamil’sTitania. The producer said via the same source:
“She’s such a heightened, hilarious character and also an actor who can improv and is razor-sharp and can banter.I can’t imagine being an actor, period,but I can’t imagine having to work opposite someone like Ryan Reynolds,who is just so quick and so smart and so funny all the time –but that woman could handle it.”

The grand prize winners will win a trip to attend the world premiere of Deadpool & Wolverine starring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman.
As far asDeadpool & Wolverinegoes, there are plenty of openings for any number of characters and/or their variants to show up in Levy’s upcoming multiverse of madness — apologies Doctor Strange. And even thoughTaylor Swift’s Dazzler will reportedly be MIA,there’s still no reason to rule out the singing sensation for sure. After all, Andrew Garfield adamantly denied his involvement inSpider-Man: No Way Home,and lo and behold, the actor still showed up to help his fellow wall crawlers take on and cure all the Spidey villains.
Deadpool & Wolverineopens in theaters on July 26.
