Deadpool 3's Behind-The-Scenes Updates Further Suggest Return Of Fox's X-Men

These updates seem to support previous rumors that three original X-Men will return alongside Hugh Jackman's Wolverine. In May 2023, entertainment insider @CanWeGetToast reported that Halle Berry and Famke Janssen would be reprising their roles as Storm and Jean Grey in "Deadpool 3" and that James Marsden would also return as Cyclops for the film. 

This rumor surfaced after previous reports that Patrick Stewart had also been contacted about reprising his legendary role as Charles Xavier for "Deadpool 3" — having previously entered the MCU with a cameo in "Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness." Considering the fact that Jennifer Garner is also returning for this film (reprising her titular role from Fox's "Elektra"), it certainly seems like any of the heroes from Fox's superhero franchise are on the table.

Though we don't yet know exactly how many "X-Men" characters will be returning for "Deadpool 3," these reports should have plenty of fans speculating about all the iconic characters who could partner up with Wade Wilson and Wolverine in their upcoming film.
