Shioli Kutsuna and Brianna Hildebrand Set to Reprise Roles in Marvel’s “Deadpool 3”: Yukio and Negasonic Teenage Warhead Return Alongside Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman
Shioli Kutsuna and Brianna Hildebrand, who played the roles of Yukio and Negasonic Teenage Warhead, will make a return in Marvel’s “Deadpool 3.”
In “Deadpool 2,” Shioli Kutsuna played Yukio, a mutant with the ability to manipulate electricity. Yukio is a member of the X-Men and becomes a close friend and love interest of Negasonic Teenage Warhead, played by Brianna Hildebrand.
Shawn Levy directs the upcoming R-rated Deadpool film, which features a star-studded cast reprising their roles: Ryan Reynolds as Wade Wilson/Deadpool, Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, Leslie Uggams as Blind Al, Karan Soni as Dopinder, Morena Baccarin as Vanessa Carlysle, Stefan Kapičić as Piotr Rasputin/Colossus, Rob Delaney as Peter, and new additions Emma Corrin and Matthew Macfadyen. The script is penned by Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick, Zeb Wells, Reynolds, and Levy.
Reese and Wernick revealed that Marvel is very supportive of keeping Deadpool 3 R-rated. “It’s a thrill,” Reese said. “It’s an absolute thrill to have the band back together, to have a new backdrop in the MCU with new characters, new villains, that kind of thing. You know, it’s never a marriage we necessarily saw coming—Fox and Disney—that was an external thing [separate] from our storytelling process. But we’re absolutely finding the serendipity and the gold in that situation, or we’re trying to.”
The plot details of Deadpool 3 are unknown. According to reports, the film had a multiverse connection. Speaking to Variety in a new article “The Story of Hugh Jackman in Five Acts”, Jackman told Variety, “In late August, he finally made the decision. He called Reynolds, who’d been pleading “on the daily” for a Wolverine-Deadpool movie. “I think, actually, he’d given up,” Jackman says. “I think it was a big shock to him. There was a massive pause, and then he said, ‘I can’t believe the timing of this.’”
Produced by Kevin Feige, Ryan Reynolds, and Shawn Levy.
“Deadpool 3” hits theaters on November 8, 2024.
