Ryan Reynolds Thanks ‘Deadpool’ Fans For “Unapologetic Devotion” After Undercover Comic-Con Appearance – Watch Video

Ryan Reynolds returned to the San Diego Comic-Con floor this weekend, surprising attendees while dressed in full Deadpool costume. The actor shared footage of his walk through the convention center, marking a decade since the first film and two years since the release of Deadpool & Wolverine. His undercover trip served as a gesture of appreciation for the fan base that pushed for the franchise to move forward years ago.

The appearance happened during a busy weekend for the Marvel brand. During the Hall H presentation, Reynolds engaged in a public exchange with Robert Downey Jr., who recently announced his return to the studio as Doctor Doom. The interaction drew loud reactions from the crowd, highlighting the ongoing crossover appeal of the current film slate.

Following the event, Reynolds confirmed that a fourth entry in the Deadpool series is currently in the works. While specific details remain limited, he noted that he intends to pull inspiration from deep cuts within the original comic books, including works by Fabian Nicieza and Gerry Duggan. He described his intent to include material that has not yet reached the screen in previous iterations.

The franchise maintains high commercial success, with the three previous films generating over two billion dollars globally. The 2024 installment alone reached 1.3 billion dollars at the box office. Reynolds continues to act as the primary face of the property, moving from the initial leak of test footage in 2014 to the current status of a long-term commercial juggernaut.
