Ryan Reynolds Surprises Fans as Undercover Deadpool at Comic-Con 2026
In a surprising twist at San Diego Comic-Con 2026, Ryan Reynolds took the stage at the Marvel Studios panel with an incredible reveal. He had been roaming the convention floor dressed as Deadpool, and not just as a talented cosplayer! Fans were completely oblivious as he snapped photos with them throughout the day.
Reynolds shared his excitement on Twitter by posting a video montage of his interactions, expressing gratitude for the fans who have supported Deadpool over the years. “Yesterday marked 10 years since the first film and exactly 2 years after Deadpool & Wolverine,” he shared. “I felt so lucky to be on the #SDCC floor with everyone whose unapologetic devotion brings so much joy to this world.”
He humorously noted, “No handlers, no security, no ropes. WHAT A GIFT,” thanking everyone he met for their creativity and passion. He even gave a shoutout to Sergeant Slaughter, who was part of the experience!
During the panel, Reynolds made a splash by asking a lighthearted question: “Why was Thor crying?” This cheeky reference stemmed from a peculiar scene in Deadpool and Wolverine where Thor could be seen shedding tears on a screen, leaving everyone, including Paul Rudd, puzzled. Rudd’s playful response was, “He’s a Wrexham fan?”
While fans were eager to know if Deadpool would appear in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday, there were no confirmations on that or any details regarding a potential Deadpool 4. But who knows—perhaps Thor’s tears were simply because he missed his chance to snap a selfie with the undercover Reynolds at Comic-Con!
As we look forward to the December 18 release of Avengers: Doomsday, fans are buzzing about what’s next in the Marvel universe and eagerly anticipating future announcements about their favorite superheroes.
