With Deadpool 3 being made as a chapter of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the franchise context surrounding the upcoming blockbuster has changed, but fans shouldn't expect a lot of radical differences on screen. Ryan Reynolds, of course, is back in the lead role, and we've also learned about a number of familiar faces in the supporting cast – with many of the announcements coming in pairs. In March, we learned Karan Soni and Leslie Uggams will be back; it was reported in April that Morena Baccarin and Stefan Kapicic are part of the ensemble; and now we have news that Brianna Hildebrand and Shioli Kutsuna are set to return as Negasonic Teenage Warhead and Yukio, respectively.
News of this development with the Deadpool 3 cast comes to us via Deadline, though the trade report doesn't include any details regarding the size of their roles or their part in the story (which we know very little about anyway). The film is being directed by Shawn Levy (who worked with Ryan Reynolds recently on both Free Guy and The Adam Project), and he has also reportedly done work on the script along with Reynolds, screenwriter Zeb Wells, and Deadpool/Deadpool 2 scribes Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick.
