The X-Men film franchise is likely to be relaunched for the Marvel Cinematic Universe now that it has been acquired by Marvel Studios following Disney's acquisition of 20th Century Fox. With one major exception. Ryan Reynolds will reprise his role as Deadpool, with the actor revealing in December 2019 that a sequel is in the works. Since then, we've had a few important updates on the threequel, but when can we expect it to start filming? According to Reynolds, this is a strong possibility for next year.

He said, “The percentage chance? I don’t know. I couldn’t assign a percentage to that. I’d say it’s 50/50 maybe? We’re really actively developing it and getting it into pretty good shape. What the hell month is it? August? Oh next year? Probably pretty damn good. I’d say 70%. It’s something that is just a daily process. Writing is kind of like that, you’ve gotta allot time to do it and walk away, and I’m working with the Molyneuxs on it, it’s been great. They’re incredibly talented and so, so smart. They so understand that world and know how to zig when everyone’s expecting a zag, so it’s been a lot of fun.”
