The third film is a pretty big deal for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Almost if not all third outings in the MCU have set a box office record and earned the most at the box office. Case in point, Thor: Ragnarok, which elevated Chris Hemsworth's films from the laughing stock of the MCU to some of the best in the billion-dollar cinematic universe.
Avengers: Infinity War and Captain America: Civil War enjoyed similar success as well, with the former making just a little over two billion dollars after its theatrical run ended. We can even throw in Sony and Marvel's latest joint venture, Spider-Man: No Way Home, which barely missed the $2 billion mark at $1.901 billion, as of the latest counting.
With so many decorated threequels in the MCU, it's only natural that Marvel Studios', Kevin Feige, wants to use them as the inspiration for Ryan Reynolds' entry, Deadpool 3.
We've known ever since Disney acquired FOX that Reynolds' mouthy red jumpsuit-wearing vigilante will join the MCU. However, there's genuine concern among fans about Deadpool 3 and how it will fit in the MCU. Even though the House of Mouse proved that it's open to R-rated shows and films after making changes earlier this year, Deadpool is unlike anything that's currently in the MCU. We're pretty sure that Deadpool 3 will be different from its predecessors. But, if Feige's words are anything to go by, the changes will be for the better.
