Deadpool & Wolverine was undeniably one of the biggest blockbusters of 2024, with Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman reprising their Marvel roles with a massive and unexpected fanfare. As a new series of social media posts from Reynolds might reveal, he does not seem done with embodying the Merc with a Mouth. On Tuesday night, Reynolds took to his Instagram stories to share a photo of himself in the Deadpool costume, captioned “That was fun today.” A second picture, of Reynolds and Blind Al actress Leslie Uggams in front of a festive-looking version of their characters’ apartments, is captioned “Got to see the gorgeous, legendary, one and only, @leslieuggams1.”

At this point, there is no telling what mysterious project Reynolds’ posts are referencing. There’s a chance that Reynolds and Uggams are filming an entirely new Deadpool special, potentially themed around the holidays. Maybe the project will ultimately be for a Once Upon a Deadpool-esque re-release of Deadpool & Wolverine, offering the film with new scenes and some of its adult content toned down. Of course, there is also always the possibility that the duo are reprising their roles for some sort of advertisement, either for Deadpool & Wolverine‘s Blu-ray and DVD release, Disney+ streaming release, or for one of Reynolds’ many companies.

โ€œI donโ€™t know,โ€ Reynolds answered. โ€œYeah, weโ€™ll see. Yeah.โ€

โ€œClearly, this is our first major interview of this press tour,โ€ Jackman added. โ€œIโ€™m not sure how to answer.โ€
