Ryan Reynolds has responded to speculation that Taylor Swift is set to make a cameo in Deadpool 3.
The 'Look What You Made Me Do' singer is heavily rumoured to be appearing in the film for a few reasons. She's good friends with Reynolds' wife Blake Lively, recently attended a sports game with Reynolds, Hugh Jackman and director Shawn Levy, and would generally be a good fit for rumoured character Dazzler, who can turn sound into light.
Speaking to the Vancouver Sun after receiving the Order of British Columbia for his acting and business success (he owns a mobile network, a gin, and Wrexham FC), Reynolds was pressed about Swift.

He didn't give an answer either way, but in true businessman fashion, he made sure to get the film's release date in his answer.
"Yeah, I've heard that one. I love it (the gossip)," he said.

"I think it is a sign of how eager people are to get a peek behind the curtain in this world. Every single one of these secrets and spoilers will be revealed on July 26."
Levy also recently responded to the rumours with a non-committal answer, stating: "I’m going across the board. 'No comment' because that's a double whammy.
"That's Taylor-related. And it's MCU-related. I'm no dummy. You're going to have to wait and see."

Deadpool 3 is currently filming in the UK, with production back on following the strikes that paused a lot of productions, but Reynolds revealed in the Vancouver Sun piece that he "fought like hell" to have production take place in Canada.
He explained that Disney, which now owns 20th Century Fox and therefore the Deadpool films, "have their infrastructure, and you just have to sort of fall in line.
"To a certain degree I understand that, but I miss home."
Deadpool and Deadpool 2 are streaming on Disney+. Deadpool 3, starring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, is in production.
