Ryan Reynolds Hints Deadpool Joining Avengers 2026 Film

Ryan Reynolds has fueled speculation that his character Deadpool may join the Avengers in the Marvel Cinematic Universe through a cryptic Instagram post featuring a mash-up of the Avengers logo with an anarchist 'A.' Despite previously denying that Deadpool would become an Avenger, this tease comes amid the filming of Avengers: Doomsday and the upcoming Avengers: Secret Wars, which are part of Marvel's Phase 6 and expected to feature a large ensemble cast. The connection of Deadpool to the TVA (Time Variance Authority) and the multiverse storyline further supports fan theories about his involvement. Marvel has not officially confirmed Deadpool's appearance, but Reynolds’ post has sparked considerable fan excitement and viral reactions. The move would align with Marvel’s trend of surprise cameos and could introduce Fox-era characters into the MCU, potentially adding an unpredictable element to the massive crossover films. Avengers: Doomsday is scheduled for release in December 2026, followed by Avengers: Secret Wars in December 2027.
