Deadpool 3: Ryan Reynolds Reveals Wolverine-Related Plot Pre-Disney
Whether if you take this with a grain of salt, with bated breath, or simply at Ryan Reynolds' word, the actor's known to have an active imagination on social media.

The Star Trek star admitted to Digital Spy he talked to Marvel Studios' Kevin Feige about possibly reprising his role before ultimately declining, citing the 2017 James Mangold film.
