- “The suit hides the blood. Also sweat… But today, with ‘Deadpool’ wrapping, it’s mostly tears. A giant and forever thanks to the cast and crew of our film who battled wind, rain, strikes and @thehughjackman (Hugh Jackman) all under the stalwart leadership of @slevydirect (Shawn Levy). I got to make a movie with my closest pals and that doesn’t happen very often. See ya July 26th…”
- Originally slated for a May 3 release, Deadpool 3 was pushed back to July 26 back in November.
- With filming now wrapped, fans can look forward to a trailer for Deadpool 3, likely in the coming months.
