Marvel Studios Deadpool 3 Delayed

Deadpool 3, initially set for a May 3, 2024 release, faces an indefinite delay, with neither Marvel nor 20th Century Studios having announced a new release date.

Anticipations of a Deadpool 3 delay were growing among fans due to the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike, which increasingly appeared to impede the completion of the film’s production. Recent reports confirm these suspicions, as the Actors’ Strike remains unresolved, requiring the cast and crew to regroup before resuming filming.

Deadpool 3 had been in production since May of the current year, persisting through the WGA Strike thanks to a completed script but was ultimately halted in July when the Actors’ Strike came into effect. The director of Deadpool 3, Shawn Levy, had been preparing fans about this setback, suggesting its likelihood during a recent interview with The Wrap.

Levy told The Wrap, “I don’t even know if we officially have [a release date]. I know we were gonna be on May 3. Certainly, the actors’ strike and the long pause in production have put that release date at true risk. We’ve shot half the movie. I’ve edited half the movie. We’re dying to get back to work and get this movie out next year.”

Deadpool 3 Delayed Indefinitely

There is already anticipation about Marvel’s strategy to rescue its 2024 lineup. The prevailing and most plausible expectation is that the studio will prioritize “Captain America: Brave New World,” which had completed production and was slated for a July 2024 release.

“Captain America 4” could potentially assume the May release window originally reserved for “Deadpool 3,” while the studio strives to complete filming for both “Deadpool 3” and “Thunderbolts” (with the latter being in pre-production when the strikes occurred). This might result in a release for “Deadpool 3” in the fall or during the 2024 holiday season.

Deadpool 3 was amongst the hardest-hit films during the strike. Director Shawn Levy shared that Deadpool 3 was already halfway through production before shuttering for the SAG/AFTRA work stoppage. The film’s stars Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman have been trying to stay in superhero form, working out daily until shooting can resume.

We will continue to update our readers on the changes to every Marvel Film and television show affected by the work stoppage.
