It’s official, the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike is over. On November 9 at 12:01 am, the labor battle between these actors and the AMPTP wrapped up, meaning that Hollywood’s film and TV productions can finally resume (excluding the handful that were already happening due to special agreements). In the case of next year’s Deadpool 3, one of the many highly-anticipated upcoming Marvel movies, there’s reportedly already a plan in motion to get cameras rolling again, and I’m surprised by how soon this could happen.
Less than 12 hours after the actors strike officially reached its end, Variety has heard from its sources that the Deadpool 3 team plans to resume production before Thanksgiving, which, at the time of this writing, is exactly two weeks away. What’s unclear is if this means filming will get back off the ground as soon as early next week, or if the cast and crew will only shoot for a few days, then take a quick break to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday, and then resume work for the rest of November and much of December.
