Zack Sharf After Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield showed up in “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” most Marvel fans were bracing for even more game-changing cameos in “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.” One of the biggest rumors ahead of the sequel’s release was that Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool would show up, marking the fan-favorite, foul-mouthed superhero’s long-awaited introduction into the Marvel Cinematic Universe following the Disney-Fox merger.

That cameo did not happen, but screenwriter Michael Waldron confirmed to ComicBook.com that Deadpool cameo discussions were had before filming.“Yeah, we talked about it,” Waldron said. “I think we talked about everything in this movie.

So, [it] would’ve been crazy to not raise that, but it ultimately didn’t feel like…It just didn’t feel like the right place.

But yeah, of course we talked about it.” For what it’s worth, Reynolds himself denied all of the rumors regarding his expected “Doctor Strange 2” cameo.
