The Multiverse Saga is still years away from its grand culmination but over the last couple of months, Marvel Studios has given fans a little taste of what to expect as multiple characters from across all timelines and realities collide. Spider-Man: No Way Home and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness both gave us an idea of what ambitious concept's true potential but the thing is, we've barely scratched the surface.

Now, it looks like Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman's Deadpool 3 (or "Wolverine 10" depending on which side you're on) will make the most out of the multiverse concept and some mind-blowing stuff might take place during Wade Wilson and Logan's Earth-616 debut. A new report claims that Shawn Levy will be pushing the envelope even further, with past Marvel franchises clashing in the highly anticipated project.

According to a new report from insider Daniel Richtman (via Comic Book Resources), the upcoming Phase 5 project will revisit the now-defunct Foxverse and possibly interact with other members of the X-Men and even the Fantastic Four, the early 2000s version that is.

Considering Evans made a cameo appearance in Reynolds and Levy's Free Guy, there's a good chance we could end up seeing the Captain America actor return to his F4 roots to play Johnny Storm aka Human Torch again. Now, we're not quite sure if the said characters will actually play a huge part plotwise or if it's just meant for fan service, but I'm guessing Deadpool 3 will somehow serve as a love letter to the Foxverse.

Deadpool 3 is scheduled to hit cinemas on November 8, 2024.
