- Deadpool 3 is anticipated to connect various Marvel universes and introduce unexpected characters like Dogpool.
- Dogpool, a canine version of Deadpool with healing abilities and a penchant for fourth-wall breaking, will make an appearance in the movie.
- Now that the SAG-AFTRA strike is resolved, the cast of Deadpool 3 can discuss the film more openly, although Marvel’s secrecy will likely limit spoilers.
Deadpool 3 has resumed production, and Ryan Reynolds recently shared a new image of himself in full Deadpool costume on the set of the 2024 Marvel movie. This teaser increases anticipation and hype for the movie, which is set to introduce a variety of new characters, such as Dogpool.
This first official snap of Dogpool, shared by the character’s Instagram account, hints at the level of hilarity the canine is set to bring to the Deadpool franchise and the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) next year. The Deadpool movies, known for their irreverent humor, fourth-wall-breaking sarcasm, and violence, became instant fan favorites after the first installment’s release in 2016.
Following the 2018 sequel, the merger between Disney and Fox temporarily halted the progress of the franchise. However, the announcement of Deadpool 3 came with the exciting reveal of Hugh Jackman reprising his role as Wolverine in the upcoming film. Additionally, Reynolds unveiled another surprise in his usual comical style: the addition of Dogpool, which has not been widely speculated by fans.
Dogpool, created by writer Victor Gischler and artist Bong Dazo, debuted in the Deadpool Corps comic series in 2010. This canine version of Deadpool has healing abilities, heightened agility, and a knack for fourth-wall breaking, much like his human counterpart. The character’s role in the movie’s plot is still unclear, but now that the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes are over, cast members can discuss the movie more openly during interviews and events. However, Marvel’s secretive nature may still limit the information shared.
Deadpool 3 is slated for release in summer 2024, arriving at an opportune moment for Marvel Studios, which has experienced a few box office disappointments in recent years. Deadpool could potentially become the savior of Phase 5 and the Multiverse Saga.
