Deadpool 3 Stops Filming Due to Actors Strike

Deadpool 3 has paused filming due to the ongoing SAG strike.

The actors strike has led to the shutdown of many movie and TV productions in Hollywood. Recently, films like Mortal Kombat 2 and Gladiator 2 have paused production, as actors in the Screen Actors Guild are no longer allowed to perform in films and TV shows.

One of the movies impacted by the Hollywood strike is Deadpool 3, the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe movie starring Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool and Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. This comes days after set photos appeared of the two characters fighting, with Wolverine in his comic-accurate suit.

Reynolds shared one last photo from set on Threads before the shutdown, captioned “Comic accurate short king.”

What is the Deadpool 3 release date?

Deadpool 3 is set to release on May 3, 2024, by Marvel Studios.

The movie will star Ryan Reynolds as Wade Wilson/Deadpool, Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, Morena Baccarin as Vanessa, Leslie Uggams as Blind Al, Karan Soni as Dopinder, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Shioli Kitsuna as Yukio, and Stefan Kapičić as Colossus.

Deadpool 3 is directed by Shawn Levy (Free Guy, The Adam Project). It is written by Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick, Zeb Wells, Ryan Reynolds, and Shawn Levy. It is produced by Kevin Feige, Reynolds, and Levy.
