What is the Deadpool 3 release date for the first Marvel Cinematic Universe movie with Ryan Reynolds’ merc with a mouth? It’s been five years since 2016’s Deadpool 2 and it’s all but confirmed that a sequel is happening. What’s more, it will probably be both the first MCU-set X-Men film and the first adult-rated MCU movie. Here is everything known about the release date, time, and how to watch new Deadpool MCU movie.
What is the Deadpool 3 release date and time?
The first Deadpool MCU movie will likely not release until either the latter half of 2024 or 2025.
At the present time, all the announced Marvel movies have confirmed release dates that run until late 2023, with the Fantastic Four, Captain America 4, and Blade MCU reboot movies filling in the slots up to February 2024. All of the announced movies will begin production at some point this year or next and nothing has been confirmed for Deadpool 3 — other than that it is almost certainly coming — so the earliest it can be out is 2024 or even 2025.
It’s unknown how much Deadpool 3 will continue with the X-Men universe from the first two movies, but given Deadpool’s fourth-wall breaking and Disney’s ownership of both the MCU and Fox’s X-Men series, the character will definitely make reference to it. Of course, there has already been an unofficial crossover between Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool and the MCU, as he appeared in a reaction video with Thor Ragnarok’s Korg (Taika Waititi).
How to watch the Deadpool 3 movie
Barring any problems such as further pandemic lockdowns, Deadpool 3 should get a normal theatrical release when it comes out, and as Disney complete owns the property it may continue the release strategy for Marvel movies it’s done with Shang-Chi and Eternals — so it may hit Disney Plus 45 days after the theatrical release. When it does starts streaming, however, the movie will be exclusive to Disney Plus and will not be available on any other services such as HBO Max, Netflix, or Amazon.
