&#039;Deadpool 3&#039; director Shawn Levy speaks on the prospect of handling a Star Wars movie while revealing one thing his movie is not about.

“It is not an…” – ‘Deadpool 3’ Director Shawn Levy Spills the Beans on His “very thrilling” Upcoming &#8216;Star Wars&#8217; Movie

One of the most interesting aspects of Hollywood lies in its variety. The
multi-billion dollar industry thrives on creativity and bringing to life a
plethora of subjects and themes that once only existed in paper and prints. A
soulful marriage of action, comedy, and stunning visuals birthed the sci-fi
genre. Over years of refinement and story-telling, it itself became the cradle
for a host of springing franchises. Now, bridging two such behemoths is Shawn
Levy, with Deadpool 3 and an unnamed Star Wars project.

As high profile as it is, details of the director’s Marvel project are wide and
known. However, he recently shed light on what fans can expect from his other
outing.


SHAWN LEVY SHARES DETAILS ABOUT HIS STAR WARS EXPERIENCE

It has been long since any Star Wars content graced the big screens. While shows
such as The Mandalorian and Andor have kept the franchise alive and kicking,
nearly six years have passed since the last canon movie. Coming in to revitalize
the franchise amidst the massively divisive 2017’s Star Wars: The Last Jedi,
Shawn Levy feels working on his project to be “very thrilling”. In talks with
Josh Horowitz, the Deadpool 3 director summarized that “it’s a blast and every
day just cooking up ideas.”



Announced in 2022, Levy’s movie is in the early stages of production. The only
‘big reveal’ coming from the Stranger Things
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/stranger-things/] producer for his upcoming Star
Wars project was that “It is not an Ewok origin story.” Moreover, he also
emphasized his dedication to bringing his element of fun while being respectful
of the story. Finally, Levy laughed it off on being asked about Ryan Reynolds
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/ryan-reynolds/] or Hugh Jackman’s chances of
appearing as a Jedi.

Meanwhile, the director’s arguably most anticipated project on the slate is
having a hard time fixing its dates.


DEADPOOL 3 LIKELY TO MISS ITS 2024 SUMMER RELEASE DATE

The moment Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds appeared in their MCU-touched
comic-accurate costumes, the Internet went berserk. Amid rabid hype for the
movie, its production still lingers in limbo owing to the SAG-AFTRA strike.
Initially slated for a September 2024 release, the project moved up to May 3,
2024. However, recent listings from Marvel Studios have dropped the movie’s
mention

which is now likely to be overtaken by Captain America 4.

Ironically, for a movie whose production stalled midway, it boasts a massive
line-up of stars. Emma Corrin, Karan Soni, and Morena Baccarin, among all the
original Fox X-Men characters, are slated to appear. Deadpool 3 also teeters on
the prospect of the multiverse thus, it is likely for Tom Hiddleston’s Loki and
the TVA to appear alongside as well.
