Ryan Reynolds has confirmed that Rob McElhenney is set to make a cameo appearance in Deadpool and Wolverine.

The highly-anticipated MCU film is expected to feature several cameos from fan-favorite actors from the Fox Marvel movies, and fans have been speculating which of them will show up when we see the film this July.

As usual, the details regarding the surprise cameos are being kept under wraps, but we can now expect an appearance from one of Reynolds' closest friends in Hollywood.

Rob McElhenney Will Have a Cameo Appearance in Deadpool and Wolverine

As confirmed by a recent report, Ryan Reynolds revealed in the latest episode of Welcome to Wrexham that It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia star and Wrexham A.F.C. co-owner Rob McElhenney will make a cameo appearance in Deadpool and Wolverine.

"Because of my busy schedule, I had to invite my co-chair, Rob McElhenney, to the set of Deadpool in London to discuss all things that are Wrexham. And, yes, I did have to promise him a role in the upcoming Deadpool film," he said.

Since the shooting of the film was confidential, the rest of the footage was shown with a blurred background.

"I can’t necessarily tell you which character Rob plays in Deadpool for fear of being shot down by the Marvel drone that follows me and my kids around," Reynolds teased.

Considering that Reynolds and McElhenney are close friends due to being co-owners of Wrexham A.F.C., it's not surprising to hear that the latter will be making an appearance in the MCU film.

If we can guess at the moment, McElhenney will likely be playing a TVA agent in the background and they could also poke fun at his appearance in one of Deadpool's breaking-the-fourth-wall moments.

McElhenney won't be the only one from Wrexham A.F.C. who will appear in the film, as the recent trailer revealed that player Ollie Palmer is also set to have a cameo in the movie.

Deadpool and Wolverine is set to arrive in theaters on July 26.
