During a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, the Deadpool actor spoke about the future of the “Merc With a Mouth,” explaining that he’d love for him to team up with Jackman’s character. “I want Deapdool and Wolverine in a movie together,” he said. “What we’re gonna have to do is convince Hugh.
