Everyone is happy that Deadpool 3 can get back into production, but a lot of fans have considered that they have been spoiled, seeing that the set photos that have been coming out online have been showcasing some big character reveals.
Though this has boosted some interest in the film, Ryan Reynolds himself has decided to release a statement, urging websites and social channels to hold back on sharing some set photos. Here’s what he posted:
I know there’s an entire social economy built around spoiling movies (which is dumb because the comments are always complaining about said spoilers), but listen to Ryan Reynolds here. Respect the process, respect the surprises. You will enjoy the films so much more! #Deadpool3 pic.twitter.com/L57ijemqTD

Even though Reynolds and company do consider the spoilers online an issue, he does say that it is a ‘good problem’ to have. He explains, “Part of the reason people post spoilers is because they’re excited. I realize these aren’t real world issues and it’s firmly in the ‘good problems’ bucket. I love making this movie.”
So far, the biggest reveal that the movie has officially shared is that Hugh Jackman is back as Wolverine, and he’ll be donning the yellow spandex from the comics. Reynolds has also shown a photo of himself as Wade Wilson with the Deadpool variant Dogpool (who has a ridiculously long tongue):

As for set spoilers, I don’t want to get into it, but people have spotted character(s) from the original Fox Marvel properties. That’s as specific I’m willing to go. Hopefully we get to see other, never-before-seen variants show up in the film. Not everything can run on nostalgia.
Deadpool 3 is set to release in theaters July 26, 2024.
