Deadpool & Wolverine has officially finished production, one month before the film is set to release in theaters. The third Deadpool film was first announced shortly after Disney acquired 20th Century Fox and instantly became a highly anticipated entry on the list of upcoming MCU movies. As the only Marvel movie releasing in 2024 from Marvel Studios, the anticipation for Deadpool & Wolverine‘s story is only growing ahead of the film’s July release date.

Taking to Instagram (via Hollywood Handle on X), Ryan Reynolds has addressed the film’s hype by confirming the film has been completed. Reynolds posted an image of him and Deadpool & Wolverine director Shawn Levy in the editing room, confirming that post-production has been finished. This means the film is ready to be released in theaters, continuing excitement from fans with just over a month left to wait for the continuation of the Fox X-Men character in his first MCU adventure.
