Six years and one major studio acquisition later, Ryan Reynolds' Deadpool finally joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But after Deadpool seemingly shattered the superhero movie formula and Deadpool 2 doubled-down on the scale of the Merc with the Mouth's particular corner of the universe, where could "Deadpool 3" go to keep upping the ante? In a word, *SNIKT*. After years of development, it was the addition of Hugh Jackman's Wolverine that finally helped Reynolds and director Shawn Levy (Free Guy, Real Steel) crack the code that ultimately led to the first Marvel Studios' billion-dollar grosser since the similarly multiverse-centric Spider-Man: No Way Home. But does this third entry confirm Deadpool as Marvel Jesus? Chauncey Telese of LA Podfidential joins us to discuss Deadpool & Wolverine as it continues its rampage through theaters. We'll chat about how the franchise makes the shift to the MCU, whether those surprise characters add or distract from the story at hand, and where the film's conclusion leaves the title characters amid the upcoming MCU slate.
