The big question on Marvel fan’s minds is when will Deadpool join the MCU? A third Deadpool film is in the works with Bob’s Burgers scribes Lizzie Molyneux-Loeglin and Wendy Molyneux. Marvel head honcho Kevin Feige has already confirmed the film will take place in the MCU, “Again, a very different type of character in the MCU, and Ryan is a force of nature, which is just awesome to see him bring that character to life.” Well, thanks to some new marketing material for Ryan Reynold’s upcoming film, Free Guy, he might have already made his first appearance. Well, kind of.
In a new promotional video for the 20th Century Studios film, Deadpool is joined by Taika Waititi’s Korg, as they do a trailer reaction for Free Guy, which Waititi also stars. With Deadpool operating his own video channel that reacts to movie trailers in the clip, the comic book character sits with Korg as the pair crack jokes about the film’s preview, including numerous digs at Reynolds.
