Deadpool 3 Makes Marvel’s Most Unkillable Team More Likely For The MCU
More invulnerable characters will be introduced to the MCU in Deadpool 3, which makes the live-action appearance of one of Marvel Comics' strangest teams even more likely. Deadpool 3 was announced to be in development not long after Disney's acquisition of 20th Century Fox in 2019, confirmed to be bringing both Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman into the MCU after portraying Wade Wilson, a.k.a. Deadpool, and Logan Howlett, a.k.a. Wolverine, in Fox's X-Men franchise. The introduction of these characters is a major development in the MCU, as the pair are both mutants who have an enhanced regenerative healing factor, making them invulnerable to things that would seriously damage most heroes.
Starting with Phase 4, Marvel Studios has been slowly introducing mutants into the MCU, with the likes of Kamala Khan, a.k.a. Ms. Marvel, and Namor already being confirmed to be mutants. Deadpool 3 is set to extend this even further, introducing two of the most iconic characters from Fox's X-Men movie franchise into the MCU, and making the idea of mutants commonplace among Earth's Mightiest Heroes. Deadpool and Wolverine's debuts will set up many epic storylines for the MCU's future, which could lead to the official formation of the MCU's X-Men, as well as the introduction of other, more sinister, super-powered teams, such as the Unkillables.
