“All of those people will do something extraordinary with the film.”
X-Men producer and writer Simon Kinberg has revealed Deadpool 3 bosses “care deeply” about Logan as a movie and character.
While many fans were under the impression Hugh Jackman had left his Wolverine claws at the door, they were pleasantly surprised when it was revealed he would be reprising his role in the third Deadpool.
Jackman left the Wolverine character back in 2017 after his character was killed. However, he changed his mind after wanting to explore the dynamic between Deadpool and Logan.
Speaking exclusively to RadioTimes.com, Logan producer Simon Kinberg said: “Deadpool 3 is really authored by Shawn Levy and Ryan Reynolds and Kevin Feige in the MCU, and I know them all really well and they’re extraordinary folks.
“I know Kevin going back to the first X-Men movie I ever worked on; Kevin was one of the producers on X-Men: The Last Stand. Shawn Levy has been a friend of mine for 20 years. Ryan, obviously, I became close with making the Deadpool films. And Hugh, I think I’ve made eight movies with, including Logan – and even movies outside the X-Men universe.”
