While replying to fans asking about his return to the upcoming MCU projects, Daniel Cudmore replied that he would be interested if they ask him. But his main answer and thoughts about the MCU came when he talked on the Youtube channel Traversing The Stars.

“I haven’t heard a thing. I don’t know how that is going to play out, being that… once Days of Future Past [ended], that was the last one that I had done. And then with the whole sort of, whatever went down with Deadpool, I don’t know if… I would go and play in that world.”

The Devil in the Dark actor continued how the MCU should bring in as many characters from the X-Men universe as possible since “there’s so many great characters in that universe”.

“But as far as just bringing X-Men back, I don’t see why they shouldn’t. There’s so many great characters in that universe… The movies can just do so well on their own. But like all these gigantic ensemble features with all the characters, like why not? Why not bring them in?”

Daniel Cudmore was replaced by Stefan Kapičić when Fox Studios released the Ryan Reynolds starrer Deadpool in 2016.

It was not so long ago when Ryan Reynolds revealed that Hugh Jackman would reprise his role of Wolverine in the upcoming Deadpool 3. The theory of how Jackman’s legacy in Logan (2017) would remain untouched has since been questioned.

Ryan Reynolds recently replied to Deadpool and Miss Minute’s Twitter account with the words “Hello, Miss Minutes”. We would like to remind the people that Miss Minutes was with the Time Variance Authority (TVA) from the series Loki. This could hint at some time traveling in Deadpool 3, confirming our theory all the more. Not only our theory, but it also hints at how many X-Men characters could enter the MCU with the help of TVA or Deadpool (it would be awesome to watch) as Marvel gears up for its Multiverse Saga.

Avengers: Secret Wars is reported to be the biggest comic-book adaptation on the big screens and will allegedly bring in a multitude of characters in the movie. Avengers: Secret Wars is slated for a release date of 1st May 2026 in theaters across the world.
