Get ready for an exciting cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine as rumors swirl about Taylor Swift possibly playing Lady Deadpool. The upcoming film promises a plethora of Deadpool variants from across the multiverse, but one character, in particular, is causing a stir online. It’s not Dogpool or Headpool, but rather Lady Deadpool, also known as Wanda Wilson.
Theories started spreading after a trailer dropped in June 2024. At the thirty-second mark, a pair of legs in a suit very similar to Deadpool’s appeared, while Ryan Reynolds’ character says in a voiceover, “I’m about to lose everything that I’ve ever cared about.”
The final trailer, released just before the film’s premiere on July 26, 2024, only intensified speculation. It featured a mysterious figure with blonde hair donning a red and black suit identical to Deadpool’s, leading many to believe this could be the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s introduction of Lady Deadpool.
Speculation about Blake Lively, Reynolds’ wife, taking on the role of Lady Deadpool gained momentum after the leg reveal. With the subsequent reveal of blonde hair in the final trailer, fans have even more reason to suspect that the Gossip Girl alum might be playing the character. However, another fan theory gaining traction is that Taylor Swift might be the one portraying Lady Deadpool.
Could Taylor Swift be playing Lady Deadpool? The pop superstar seems like a prime candidate for a cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine, a rumor that has been circulating for some time. Swift is close friends with Reynolds and Lively and was spotted with Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, and director Shawn Levy at an NFL game in October 2023.
The excitement over Swift’s potential appearance grew when a photo of her dressed as Deadpool resurfaced, showing that Reynolds had lent her the suit for Halloween. This picture, coupled with Reynolds’ admiration for the singer, has led fans to believe that a cameo by Swift might indeed be possible.
However, an Entertainment Tonight report dismissed the rumors, stating Swift was too busy with her Eras Tour to film for Marvel.
Director Levy, however, kept fans guessing. He told the Wrap, “That’s a double whammy. That’s Taylor-related. And it’s MCU-related. I’m no dummy. You’re going to have to wait and see.”
