Deadpool 3 is hitting the ground running, with Variety reporting that the cameras will roll again before Thanksgiving. The brief pause caused by the strike hasn't derailed the film's momentum, and Reynolds' tweet suggests we can still expect the Merc with a Mouth to hit the big screen next summer.

In a tweet that's causing ripples of excitement, Reynolds seemingly confirms the inclusion of the adorable yet chaotic Dogpool. While not saving the day, Dogpool is wreaking havoc in the Disney plushy merch department, giving us a glimpse into the mischief we can expect.
"Did Dogpool save the day? Not a chance in gremlin hell. But she IS currently causing the Disney plushy merch department nightmares," he wrote on X.

The big question remains: How will Deadpool and his Fox universe pals integrate into the Marvel Cinematic Universe? While the details are still shrouded in mystery, one thing is certain – it's going to be silly, self-aware, and, thankfully, R-rated. Producer Shawn Levy emphasizes the commitment to maintaining the raw, audacious essence of the franchise, promising a film that feels grounded and real.
"I wasn't going to mess with the DNA of that franchise," producer Shawn Levy said. "Our movie is raw, audacious, very much R-rated, and we went to great lengths to not shoot it on sound stages with digital environments. We wanted something that felt grounded, real."
Deadpool 3 is back on track, and the excitement is palpable. With the irreverent charm of Reynolds, the return of familiar faces, and the introduction of new chaos courtesy of Dogpool, the Merc with a Mouth is gearing up for another unforgettable adventure. As the cameras start rolling, fans can rest easy knowing that Deadpool 3 is staying true to its roots while injecting fresh energy into the Marvel universe. Get ready for a summer of mayhem, laughter, and, of course, plenty of R-rated fun!
