The highly-anticipated entry of the Merc with a Mouth into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Deadpool & Wolverine, is set to be the biggest multiversal team-up in Marvel history, and the confirmed cast list for the film, last updated in December 2025, is nothing short of explosive. This film is not just a sequel; it’s a colossal crossover event that brings back beloved characters from the now-defunct 20th Century Fox Marvel universe, while introducing major new players from the MCU’s Time Variance Authority (TVA) and the X-Men’s most formidable foes. The sheer number of confirmed and rumored entities has fans buzzing, promising a chaotic and continuity-shattering adventure that only Wade Wilson and Logan can deliver.

The film’s central premise, which sees Wade Wilson recruited by the TVA to save the "Sacred Timeline" from a major threat, acts as the perfect vehicle to justify this massive ensemble. With Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman leading the charge, the supporting cast is stacked with returning favorites, surprising cameos, and a pair of powerhouse newcomers whose roles are central to the plot. From the return of a beloved, non-variant mutant to a villain with ties to Professor X, here is the complete, definitive breakdown of every major actor and character confirmed for Deadpool & Wolverine.

The Dynamic Duo and the New Multiverse Movers

The core of the film rests on the shoulders of two of the most iconic comic book characters of all time, alongside two key figures who will anchor the film's multiversal plot within the MCU structure.

Ryan Reynolds as Wade Wilson / Deadpool

  • Character Profile: The wisecracking, fourth-wall-breaking anti-hero who gains accelerated healing and a disfigured appearance after a rogue experiment.
  • Role in the Film: Wade is living a mundane life when the TVA (Time Variance Authority) snatches him away. He is tasked by the organization with a mission that requires him to team up with a jaded, retired version of Wolverine. This marks Deadpool's official, canon entry into the MCU.
  • Topical Authority Entity: The character’s self-awareness and meta-commentary are expected to be the main source of humor as he navigates the complexities of the MCU's Multiverse Saga.

Hugh Jackman as James "Logan" Howlett / Wolverine

  • Character Profile: The gruff, adamantium-clawed mutant with an accelerated healing factor and a mysterious past.
  • Role in the Film: Jackman returns to the role he retired from in 2017's Logan. This version of Wolverine is said to be a variant from a timeline that has been "pruned" or is facing collapse, making him a more cynical and broken version of the hero. His dynamic with Deadpool is the emotional and action core of the movie.
  • Topical Authority Entity: The film is a direct continuation of the Fox X-Men universe legacy, specifically addressing the character's journey after Logan.

Emma Corrin as Cassandra Nova

  • Character Profile: The primary antagonist of the film, Cassandra Nova is the psychic "mummudrai" (evil twin) of Charles Xavier (Professor X). She possesses immense telepathic and telekinetic powers.
  • Role in the Film: Corrin's Nova is confirmed to be the villain that Deadpool and Wolverine must confront. Her comic book look, including the iconic bald head, is faithfully adapted. She is shown operating out of the Void, a location familiar from the Disney+ series Loki, where the TVA deposits pruned timelines.
  • Topical Authority Entity: As a powerful mutant villain with a direct link to the X-Men's founder, her presence signifies the merging of the X-Men lore into the MCU's main narrative.

Matthew Macfadyen as Mr. Paradox

  • Character Profile: A high-ranking agent of the TVA, similar in stature to Agent Mobius.
  • Role in the Film: Macfadyen's character, Mr. Paradox, is the TVA bureaucrat responsible for recruiting Deadpool. He is described as an ambitious agent vying for a leadership position by pruning timelines, which sets the entire plot into motion. His role is to bridge the Fox-verse characters with the established MCU multiversal rules.
  • Topical Authority Entity: The TVA (Time Variance Authority) is a critical element, solidifying the film's place in the MCU's Multiverse Saga.

The Shocking Returns from the Fox Marvel Universe

The most exciting aspect for long-time fans is the return of actors reprising their roles from pre-MCU Marvel films, a move that fully embraces the concept of the multiverse and the legacy of the Fox-produced movies.

Dafne Keen as Laura Kinney / X-23

  • The Confirmation: Dafne Keen is officially back as Laura, the young, cloned daughter of Logan, who was last seen escaping into Canada at the end of Logan (2017).
  • The Twist: Keen has confirmed that the character in Deadpool & Wolverine is the *same* Laura Kinney from Logan, and not a variant. This means the movie directly continues the story of the beloved character, a major revelation for the timeline.
  • Significance: Her return is a powerful emotional beat for Wolverine and a major fan-service moment that legitimizes the conclusion of the Logan film.

Jennifer Garner as Elektra Natchios

  • The Confirmation: Jennifer Garner is reprising her role as the deadly assassin Elektra, whom she previously played in 2003's Daredevil and 2005's Elektra.
  • The Role: While specific plot details are scarce, her presence is a massive nod to the early 2000s Fox Marvel films. Garner underwent intense training to get "Marvel fit" for the role, indicating a significant action sequence.
  • Significance: This cameo is perhaps the most surprising and definitive proof that Deadpool & Wolverine is a celebration of all non-MCU Marvel history.

Aaron Stanford as John Allerdyce / Pyro

  • The Confirmation: Stanford, who played Pyro in X2: X-Men United and X-Men: The Last Stand, is confirmed to return.
  • The Role: Pyro is seen in the trailer, suggesting he may be an ally or part of Cassandra Nova's forces in the Void, showcasing his mutant power of pyrokinesis. His presence further connects the film to the mainline Fox X-Men trilogy.

The Returning Deadpool Family and X-Force

No Deadpool film is complete without the Merc’s dysfunctional family and team. Almost the entire core supporting cast from the first two films is back, providing the necessary grounding and humor.

The Core Family and Allies

  • Morena Baccarin as Vanessa Carlysle: Wade’s fiancée, whose death was the catalyst for the events of Deadpool 2. Her return, hinted at in the first trailer, is a major emotional driver for Wade.
  • Leslie Uggams as Blind Al: Wade’s elderly, sight-impaired, and hilariously inappropriate roommate. Her dynamic with Wade is a staple of the franchise.
  • Karan Soni as Dopinder: Deadpool’s loyal and aspiring-to-be-a-hitman taxi driver.
  • Stefan Kapičić as Colossus: The CGI-rendered, metallic, and morally upright X-Man. His constant attempts to steer Deadpool toward heroism are a running gag.
  • Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead: The perpetually moody, super-powered mutant trainee X-Man.
  • Shioli Kutsuna as Yukio: Negasonic's cheerful girlfriend and fellow X-Man.

The X-Force Returns

While the original X-Force team suffered a famously disastrous fate in Deadpool 2, two key members are confirmed to be back, possibly as variants or through a multiversal loophole:

  • Rob Delaney as Peter Wisdom: The non-super-powered, ordinary man who bravely joined X-Force. His return as "Peter" is a testament to the film's commitment to its unique brand of humor.
  • Lewis Tan as Shatterstar: The genetically engineered mutant from the Mojoverse and a member of X-Force. His return was confirmed in the debut trailer, continuing the character's legacy.

The Multiverse Entities and Highly Anticipated Cameos

The use of the TVA and the Void opens the door for an almost unlimited number of cameos, turning the film into a celebration of all of Marvel’s cinematic history. While many are rumored, several high-profile appearances are strongly indicated by reliable sources and set photos, adding significant topical authority to the film's concept.

  • Canadapool: A variant of Deadpool, confirmed to be played by Alex Kyshkovych. This is one of many confirmed "Pool" variants expected to appear.
  • Chris Evans as Human Torch (Variant): Widely rumored to be reprising his role as Johnny Storm from the 2005 and 2007 Fantastic Four films, a role he played before becoming Captain America.
  • Channing Tatum as Gambit: After years of a stalled solo film, Tatum is heavily rumored to finally appear as the Cajun mutant, Gambit, likely as a variant.
  • Wesley Snipes as Blade (Variant): The original cinematic vampire hunter is rumored to make a multiversal appearance, a nod to the late 90s/early 2000s Marvel films.
  • Other X-Men Variants: Rumors abound for appearances by other Fox-era X-Men, including variants of Cyclops, Jean Grey, and Storm, further solidifying the film’s role as the definitive bridge between the two Marvel cinematic eras.

With a cast list that spans decades of Marvel cinema, Deadpool & Wolverine is poised to be an unprecedented event. The film's ability to weave together the irreverent humor of the Deadpool franchise with the high-stakes multiversal drama of the MCU, all while paying tribute to the history of the Fox Marvel universe, makes it perhaps the most important and curiosity-inducing movie of the year.
