Deadpool 2 Screen Writers On Which MCU Team-Ups They’d Want For Deadpool


Disney might still be working on the acquisition of 20th Century Fox and its assets, but it looks like Deadpool 2's screenwriters have begun fantasizing future crossovers with various characters from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Deadpool 2 writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick have been pretty busy thinking up of fun heroes to pair up with Ryan Reynold's brassy Merc with a Mouth. In an interview with ComicBook.com, the screenwriters reveal their favorite MCU team-ups for Deadpool .

"I mean I sure wish Chris Evans would stay in the role a little bit longer because I'd love to see Deadpool and Captain America going at it," Reese told the publication. "Just because he's so honorable and so serious and a great character and Deadpool's pretty much the opposite and that could be fun. We're always looking for good foils for Deadpool."

Wernick, on the other hand, seems to want Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) to team-up with Deadpool. Seems like the writer would like to see the two banter back and forth in a future film.

"Iron Man, too," said Wernicks. "I mean imagine Tony Stark and Wade Wilson back and forth, you'd literally, there wouldn't be a moment to do anything else but to jabber back and forth and my God, it would be exhausting."

Though it'd be interesting to see Deadpool play around with two of the biggest heroes in the Avengers, we're also pretty sure that fans would like to see other team-ups as well. Drax (Dave Bautista) would probably have a swell time with the Merc with a Mouth and a Spider-Man (Tom Holland)/ Deadpool team-up would definitely be a classic.
