Shawn Levy Brands Deadpool 3’s Wolverine/Deadpool Team-Up ‘Director Heaven’

Deadpool 3’s team-up between Ryan Reynolds’ titular protagonist and Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine makes the Marvel Cinematic Universe blockbuster a dream directing gig, according to Shawn Levy.Levy, raved about the experience of working with Reynolds and Jackman on the third Deadpool installment in an interview with Collider. “You have two major movie stars together in a movie playing their most iconic signature roles — that is director heaven,” he said. “So the story, the tone, the movie itself leans into that gift of having Deadpool and Wolverine co-starring in a movie for the first time. So, we’re definitely not running away from that.” Deadpool 3 is Levy’s first entry in the Deadpool franchise; Deadpool and Deadpool 2 were directed by Tim Miller and David Leitch, respectively.Unlike his predecessors, Levy is working within the confines of the MCU, as Deadpool 3 was folded into the shared universe after Marvel Studios’ parent company acquired Deadpool rightsholder 20th Century Fox. Deadpool 3’s shift to the MCU sparked concerns from some corners of the franchise’s fanbase that the production will be watered down to fit the MCU’s more family-friendly brand, however, Levy continues to insist this isn’t the case. In a recent interview, he assured Deadpool devotees he won’t “mess with the DNA” of the property and isn’t targeting a PG-13 rating. “Our movie is raw, audacious, very much R-rated,” Levy said.Related: Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine Return Can Do the One Thing Logan Couldn’t
