Deadpool star Ryan Reynolds and director of Logan James Mangold have denied that the character will appear in the Hugh Jackman-starrer.
Mangold took to Twitter to vehemently deny a report that Reynolds recently shot a scene as Deadpool for the 2017 Wolverine film.
He wrote,
@PotterDarth DEADPOOL IS NOT IN MY FILM. Does all caps help confirm it?

He was backed by Reynolds. The actor responded to a tweet saying Deadpool would appear alongside Wolverine in the film.
Reynolds tweeted,
Sadly, not true. Prisoner 24601 is on a solo mission. https://t.co/5czBmMRfY1

No. I want a Deadpool/Wolvie film. But Logan is its own unique & perfect thing. The Big Red Shit-Talker wouldn't mix with the tone. https://t.co/35WpEJLJ10

To which Mangold replied,
Gracias, R. From your fan. J https://t.co/S9Do9eCXZP
