Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, two of People’s “Sexiest Men Alive”, are Hollywood’s most famous (and only?) hunky costars-turned-friends-turned-faux-enemies.
And they’re bringing their years-long bromance back to the big screen in Deadpool & Wolverine, now in theaters.It’s a bit of cinematic déjà vu, since the Reynolds and Jackman also played those two superheroes in 2009’s widely panned X-Men Origins: Wolverine, but expectations are riding even higher for this film.
2016’s acclaimed Deadpool became the highest-grossing R-rated movie of all time, and 2018’s equally well-received Deadpool 2 broke that record.
The main marketing hook of ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ continues to be: “Wait, are these two going to explore each other’s bodies?”Now, thanks to Disney’s acquisition of 20th Century Fox, Deadpool and Wolverine are joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe in this third installment, which will be both Disney and the MCU’s first R-rated movie.
