Rumors and speculations about Taylor Swift’s possible involvement in the Marvel Cinematic Universe have been swirling for months. The pop superstar, known for her cryptic hints and Easter eggs in her music, has fueled fan theories that she might make a surprise appearance in Deadpool 3.
The latest trailer even sparked a frenzy, with fans identifying a mysterious pair of legs that seemed to belong to none other than Swift. But is there any truth to these rumors?
No, Taylor Swift is not in Deadpool 3, and she is not playing Lady Deadpool or Dazzler. Despite the buzz and fan theories, Entertainment Weekly has confirmed that Swift will not be appearing in the upcoming Marvel film.
So, who is playing Lady Deadpool, if not Taylor Swift?
The rumors were wild, but Swifties and Marvel fans will need to look elsewhere. The excitement peaked when a teaser trailer and poster for Deadpool 3 were released, showing a glimpse of someone in the costume that had fans speculating.
Additionally, Ryan Reynolds and his wife Blake Lively, both close friends of Swift, were seen with the film’s director, Shawn Levy, at a Kansas City Chiefs game, further fueling the gossip mill.
Shawn Levy has addressed the rumors, albeit vaguely. “I regret that I was not quicker to shut it down the first time,” Levy admitted to Entertainment Weekly, acknowledging the persistent speculation.
Meanwhile, Reynolds kept the mystery alive, stating,
“Anything can happen, and that’s sort of what I love about this universe. Surprises are the essence of Deadpool.”
While he didn’t confirm or deny Swift’s involvement directly, his comments left the door open for wild fan theories.
Adding to the confusion, the connection between Swift and Reynolds is well-documented. Swift famously borrowed Reynolds’ Deadpool costume for Halloween in 2016, and the couple has been part of her close-knit circle for years. This friendship led to fans drawing their own conclusions when they saw the trio together at the Chiefs game.
Despite all the hints and speculative breadcrumbs, Entertainment Weekly has definitively stated that Swift will not be joining Reynolds and Hugh Jackman in Deadpool 3. She won’t be Lady Deadpool or any other character in the film. This confirmation comes as a disappointment to the subset of fans who were hoping to see Swift transition from the stage to the silver screen in a superhero role.
With Swift out of the running, attention has shifted to who might actually be behind those legs in the trailer. Some fans now speculate that Blake Lively could be making a surprise appearance.
Reynolds himself added fuel to this fire when he posted a teaser for the film on social media with the caption, “Has everyone seen the #Deadpool trailer? Also, has anyone seen my wife?”
So, what can we expect from Deadpool 3?
The film promises to be packed with surprises, true to the chaotic and unpredictable nature of the Deadpool universe. Reynolds’ comment that “surprises are the essence of Deadpool” hints at a movie filled with unexpected cameos and twists. While Swift won’t be one of them, there’s still plenty of room for other shocking appearances.
As we wait for the film’s release, the anticipation builds. Will Blake Lively step into the Lady Deadpool role? Or is there another surprise in store? Fans will just have to wait until July 26 to find out when Deadpool 3 hits theaters. Until then, the mystery and excitement continue to swirl.
