Ryan Reynolds and Hayley Atwell will reprise their Marvel roles as Deadpool and Peggy Carter in Avengers: Doomsday, it’s been confirmed.
Both actors appeared on stage today at San Diego Comic Con during Marvel’s announcement panel in Hall H, where IGN was in attendance. Deadpool now wears a grey suit, which Reynolds referred to as his “Canadian tuxedo.”
“Longtime listener, first time caller,” Reynolds said, in character as Deadpool, dropping in on the Marvel panel. “I’m a huge fan. I’m not wearing a Doom mask over this mask because I don’t want to ruin the lines of my Canadian tuxedo,” he continued, referencing the plastic Doctor Doom masks handed out to everyone in the audience.
Deadpool (or Reynolds?) continued his bit by asking Avengers: Doomsday’s directors Joe and Antony Russo when they were beginning to film the movie, so he could drop by and make a cameo. The brothers told Deadpool/Reynolds that the film was already in the can, though they were still tinkering with it.
Jokes aside, it is very safe to say that Deadpool will be in the film, and very likely to assume that Reynolds’ scenes were already shot.
