Ryan Reynolds Plans Deadpool/X-Men Ensemble Movie

Ryan Reynolds is developing a new Deadpool film that will feature an ensemble of three or four X-Men characters, moving away from the traditional solo format. The project follows the success of Deadpool & Wolverine, which grossed over $1.3 billion and became the highest-grossing R-rated film ever. Reynolds is independently working on story treatments, with Deadpool expected to take a supporting role to spotlight other X-Men, though no formal pitch has been made to Marvel Studios. The film is separate from Marvel's X-Men reboot written by Michael Lesslie and is in its early development stage. Reynolds' increasing involvement in writing and producing is shaping the project's direction. While casting and character details remain unconfirmed, actress Cynthia Erivo has expressed interest in portraying Storm.
