Deadpool Expected in Avengers: Doomsday Not as Avenger

Ryan Reynolds will return as Deadpool in the upcoming Marvel film Avengers: Doomsday, but he will not join the main Avengers team. Instead, Deadpool is rumored to be part of a multiversal task force known as the Exiles or Team Loki, assembled by the Time Variance Authority (TVA) to protect Loki and address multiverse anomalies. This role aligns with Deadpool's chaotic and unpredictable personality, distinguishing him from the more traditional Avengers. Robert Downey Jr. will portray Doctor Doom, and other X-Men characters like Wolverine are expected to appear, though not all have been officially confirmed. Reynolds teased his involvement by sharing an image of the Avengers' logo with a red anarchy symbol, which was later confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter. The film, directed by the Russo brothers, will blend Avengers, X-Men, and multiverse elements, with Deadpool acting as a wildcard connecting these storylines.
