The third Deadpool will be the title character's official introduction to Marvel's Cinematic Universe, and while we have yet to see a trailer for the movie, we already know a little about it. The leaks have upset, among others, the movie's director, who mentioned it in an interview with the Total Film magazine.

Recall that some time ago the Internet saw photos and short videos showing scenes shot with Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, who play the titular Deadpool and Wolverine, respectively.

The creation of the footage by casual onlookers was possible because the movie crew recorded the action scenes outside the studio, in natural environment. As noted by Shawn Levy, director of Deadpool 3, such is the price of a certain decision made earlier.

"It pisses me off that the photos were leaked online. But that's the price we pay for using real locations. I made the decision to shoot outdoors at a very early stage of preparation. I did it mainly because Deadpool is now in the MCU and I don't want the next Marvel film to be shot on green screens," Levy said.

Let's point out that the first Deadpool movie came out in 2016. The sequel hit theaters two years later, and the third part will be available to fans from May 2024.

It's worth mentioning that, in the meantime, Disney managed to take over 20th Century Fox, the studio responsible for the first two movies about the merc with a mouth. This caused concern among fans about limiting the brutality, but the director assured, that the show will be rated R.
