Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively were last seen together on-screen in Green Lantern and are set to appear in the film IF, with Lively in a voice-over role. Fans are eager to see them in more substantial roles together. Rumors had been circulating about Lady Deadpool’s appearance in Reynolds’ Deadpool & Wolverine, leading to speculation that Lively might play the character alongside her husband.

Lady Deadpool, or Wanda Wilson, is a variant of Deadpool from Earth-3010, possessing similar traits such as wit and healing abilities. She was rumored to be part of the upcoming Marvel movie, according to popular scooper Daniel Richtman.

The speculation has increased, with many Marvel enthusiasts suggesting Blake Lively as the ideal choice for the role. However, another Marvel insider, @MyTimeToShineH, has recently indicated that Lively will not be portraying the character, much to the disappointment of fans hoping to see the real-life couple together on-screen.

Deadpool stands out as one of the most quick-witted characters in the entire Marvel Universe. Ryan Reynolds not only nails the role but also seems to be the real-life version of the Marvel character. His sharp sense of humor is a match, and his wife, Blake Lively, appears to be equally quick on the draw, as evidenced by their frequent playful banter.

While Lively would be an ideal choice for Lady Deadpool, fans have expressed disappointment. This sentiment intensified when speculation arose that superstar Taylor Swift might portray the character. Long-standing rumors of Swift joining the MCU gained momentum after Deadpool’s creator, Rob Liefeld, shared a photo of Swift in Deadpool attire, sparking a wave of fan discontent.


As fans exclaim disappointment, it is important to remember that at this point, these are all rumors and speculations. Only time will tell what Deadpool & Wolverine really have in store for us. Meanwhile, fans wish for Lively and Reynolds to star in a movie together, hopefully soon.

Deadpool & Wolverine will be in theatres on July 26, 2024.
