Marvel is less than three weeks away from its most significant release of the year — Deadpool & Wolverine. Led by Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, the film is projected to open with a three-day $160-$165 million box office performance. Not only would it be the best box office opening of the year, but it would set a record for an R-rated film.
In addition to performing well at the box office, it’s also expected to perform well on social media. For weeks, if not months, fans have speculated about who may pop in for a scene or two throughout the film. From Taylor Swift to Jennifer Garner, the number of rumored cameos has been nearly unquantifiable. While the film’s director. Shawn Levy, hasn’t shot down many of those rumors, he does want to reassure fans of Marvel that the cameos will not devour the magic of the film.
“We didn’t want any of the cameos or characters to be the story of the movie,” Levy told Entertainment Weekly.
“But they are peppered in throughout. There’s a lot of characters. The internet is a delight of rumors about the multitude of character cameos that are in this movie. Some rumors are true, some are way off base.”
Fans will have the opportunity to find out what rumors are true and what rumors are off base when Deadpool & Wolverine officially debuts in theaters at the end of July.
