Ryan Reynolds<\/strong> might not be able to reveal when Deadpool will return, but he has assured fans that the foul-mouthed superhero\u2019s movie profession shouldn’t be over. The 49-year-old actor made the revelation during a rare public appearance at Fanatics Fest in Latest York City on Sunday, July 19. While discussing the character\u2019s growing presence across movies, comics, animation and collectibles, Reynolds casually confirmed that one other film stays in Deadpool\u2019s future.<\/p>\n

The fastidiously worded update stopped in need of confirming an official \u201cDeadpool 4,\u201d leaving open the chance that the character could return through one other Marvel project. \u201cThere\u2019s eventually, , remotely, one other Deadpool film,\u201d Reynolds said during \u201cThe Art of Deadpool\u201d panel, per IGN<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Reynolds also discussed how portraying Wade Wilson transformed his profession and have become the creative center of an expanding franchise. \u201cDeadpool\u2019s got so many alternative verticals,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s obviously major motion pictures. That\u2019s an enormous a part of it. It\u2019s the part that\u2026 modified my whole life. It\u2019s an element that I still to at the present time feel is my mothership in quite a lot of ways. However it\u2019s such an expansive universe.\u201d<\/p>\n

Deadpool has appeared in several live-action movies, animated projects and comic-book series, allowing Marvel to make use of the character without immediately committing to a different standalone sequel.<\/p>\n

Reynolds\u2019 wording is important because Marvel Studios has not formally announced \u201cDeadpool 4\u201d or provided a release date. His comments confirm that discussions concerning the character\u2019s cinematic future are continuing, but they don’t establish which project will bring him back.<\/p>\n

The actor last starred opposite Hugh Jackman in \u201cDeadpool & Wolverine,\u201d which brought the franchise into the Marvel Cinematic Universe and opened the door for each characters to look elsewhere.<\/p>\n

Reynolds revealed that he purchased an autographed Hugh Jackman<\/strong> card for his personal collection after deciding against a way more expensive double pack. \u201cI did some bartering. I used to be in search of\u2026 autographed Deadpool Chrome cards. I got them,\u201d he explained. \u201cI didn\u2019t get the double pack. That was like $50,000 or something, but I did get the one with Hugh Jackman.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reynolds joked that Jackman\u2019s handwritten message created an unexpected obstacle. \u201cIt\u2019s getting in the non-public collection,\u201d he said. \u201cI don\u2019t know which one it was, it was the chrome, which is gorgeous, autographed\u2026 I can\u2019t totally read the inscription that he wrote, he wrote it in Australian, so I don\u2019t know what he\u2019s talking about. But lovely though.\u201d<\/p>\n

The collectible line includes cards signed by Reynolds and Jackman, together with original artwork, sketches and moments inspired by their Marvel appearances.
