Deadpool 3 is one of the more anticipated Marvel Studios movies in some time, and we can count X-Men: First Class’ Matthew Vaughn among the excited.
Speaking to BroBible, Vaughn was asked about the upcoming film starring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman. Vaughn praised the movie, and said he thinks it’ll deliver a “jolt” for the MCU.
“That’s going to be the jolt… the Marvel universe is about to have a jolt of them and it’s going to bring that body back to life… I think Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman are about to save the whole Marvel universe,” said Vaughn.
Vaughn also said he hopes that Deadpool 3 establishes a place for the world of X-Men to grow in the MCU, as its a franchise he holds near and dear.
“I’m a genuine fan of the X-Men, all I want is for the movies to be as good as they should be,” Vaughn said.
