But it looks like this supposed superhero jamboree will have to wait because the curtain is about to be pulled off the Spidey x Deadpool rumors.

Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man in Deadpool 3 Rumors Debunked

Social media has been buzzing with a rumor fresh out of the oven after an X user posted a picture of Tobey Maguire wearing what appears to be an Ultimate Alliance tee, insinuating that the Spider-Man star may be seen beside Ryan Reynolds‘ disfigured mercenary in Deadpool 3.

The reference is from Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, an action video game featuring a slew of MCU superheroes and villains, including – you guessed it right – Spider-Man and Deadpool. Turns out, however, that rumor about Maguire joining forces with Reynolds’ Wade Wilson is just that, a rumor.

A separate post on X revealed that the image in question had been photoshopped to make it seem that Maguire, 49, was wearing the aforementioned graphic T-shirt, when in fact, he was wearing a plain white tee. The photo appears to be an old one taken with a fan so don’t get your hopes up about the web-slinger being in cahoots with the Regenerating Degenerate.

Deadpool 3 – There Is Still Hope For Spider-Man Fans

Your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man may not show up in the forthcoming Shawn Levy-helmed film, but a character from Spider-Man 2 just might.

Mr. Aziz (Aasif Mandiv), the sprightly owner of Joe’s Pizza where Peter Parker used to work in the sequel, is reportedly going to make an appearance in Deadpool 3 (via Spider-Man News on X). However, the veracity of this rumor remains unchecked so take it with a pinch of salt.

Among the list of characters fans will get to see though, we have a few classic comebacks by Blind Al (Leslie Uggams), Colossus (Stefan Kapicic), Negasonic Teenage Warhead (Brianna Hildebrand), and Vanessa (Morena Baccarin), to name a few. And then there are new additiobs, the likes of which include Cassandra Nova (Emma Corrin), Sabretooth (Tyler Mane), and so forth.
