Is Walker Scobell In Deadpool 3? Here’s Everything We Know

Speaking with ComicBookMovie at a press conference for Disney+’s upcoming Percy Jackson TV series alongside his teen co-stars Leah Jeffries and Aruan Simhadri, Walker Scobell addressed the rumor about him appearing in Deadpool 3, The young star seems to be pleased with the rumor, but he’s unlikely to be in the movie.

"Not that I know of, but I learned a lot of valuable lessons from them that I used while filming Percy Jackson. And, um, yeah, I'm not sure—I'm hoping to reunite someday, but I don't know,” said Scobell, seemingly debunking the rumor.

By “reunite”, Scobell meant that he’d love to return to star alongside Ryan Reynolds, his co-star in Netflix’s The Adam’s Project. Owen Wilson, who also worked with Scobell in 2022’s Secret Headquarters, is also rumored to be in Deadpool 3 as Mobius M. Mobius, though there is no confirmation from Marvel just yet.

Walker Scobell had the experience to work with both Ryan Reynolds and Mark Ruffalo, two MCU actors, in The Adam Project, and the three had great chemistry together. Therefore, we can see why the young actor is very open to the idea of working with Reynolds again in future projects, however, it might not be Deadpool 3.

The Percy Jackson star was initially rumored to portray Kidpool, a younger variant of Wade Wilson. Both Kidpool and Deadpool himself have met several times in comics, so fans are eager to see such interactions again on the big screen. In The Adam Project, both Scobell and Reynolds play the same character, Adam Reed, as his kid and adult self. 

If Scobell gets to star in Deadpool 3, we could see the same situation all over again, as he and Reynolds will both play different versions of the Merc with a Mouth in the much-anticipated sequel.

Currently 14 years old, Walker Scobell is one of the latest rising stars in Hollywood. He made himself known through Netflix’s The Adam Project and Secret Headquarters in 2022 as one of the main characters. The movie was a hit, and it propelled the young star’s name to greater heights, with multiple new projects awaiting him in the future.

Currently, Scobell is working with Disney for the upcoming Percy Jackson and the Olympians TV series, as he stars as the titular protagonist. The Disney+ series was released earlier this December, and so far has gained fairly positive reviews from fans and critics.
