Summary Ryan Reynolds joins the MCU in Phase 5's Deadpool & Wolverine, along with a few actors who have already been confirmed to be making appearances. Reynolds was quickly confirmed to be making the move from Fox's X-Men franchise to Marvel Studios following Disney's acquisition of Fox in 2019.
Much like the previous Deadpool films, Reynolds was incredibly hands-on in the production of Deadpool & Wolverine. The actor worked closely with Marvel to develop the screenplay, and met with potential writers including Bob's Burgers writers Wendy Molyneux and Lizzie Molyneux-Logelin, although original Deadpool writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick were eventually chosen to rewrite the script.
26 Stefan Kapičić as Colossus Stefan Kapičić also reprises his role of Colossus in Deadpool 3, a role he took over from Donald MacKinnon from previous films in Fox's X-Men franchise. Colossus is the third confirmed mutant character to be appearing in Deadpool 3, after Deadpool himself and Wolverine, which makes the prospect of the X-Men in the MCU even more exciting, particularly since Colossus is an active member of the superhero team.
23 Leslie Uggams as Blind Al Leslie Uggams was confirmed to be reprising her role of Blind Al from the previous Deadpool films on March 29, 2023. Blind Al became Deadpool's roommate after providing him with advice on how to wash blood out of his costume, and inspiring his decision to design his iconic red suit. Uggams provided previous Deadpool films with some of their best jokes, and continues to show her comedic talents in Deadpool & Wolverine.
19 Matthew Macfadyen as Paradox It was reported on March 28, 2023, that Matthew Macfadyen had joined the cast of Deadpool & Wolverine in an undisclosed role. English actor Macfadyen rose to stardom after appearing as Mr. Darcy in 2005's Pride & Prejudice, but has also had major roles in Death at a Funeral, Frost/Nixon, Spooks, and HBO's Succession.
16 Aaron Standford as Pyro Aaron Stanford also returned in the movie as Pyro, which was initially confirmed by Deadpool & Wolverine's first trailer. Pyro shows up in the MCU's Void in the movie, but first appeared in Fox's X2 and X-Men: The Last Stand, having left Charles Xavier's School in favor of Magneto's Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Stanford is also known for his roles in 12 Monkeys, The Hills Have Eyes, and Nikita.
