Taylor Swift is not set to star in the upcoming superhero movie, Deadpool & Wolverine, despite speculation from fans.According to an exclusive report by Entertainment Weekly, the singer of ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ will not be making an appearance in the next instalment of the Marvel franchise.Despite IMAX posting an Instagram picture yesterday showing its two heroes holding hands and wearing friendship bracelets, a symbol of Swift fandom and more specifically ‘The Eras Tour’, it has been revealed that the singer won’t be involved in the film.The rumours began after fans noticed the film’s stars Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman in attendance with Swift at a Kansas City Chiefs game last October, along with the film’s director Shawn Levy.Some fans of MCU speculated that she might portray the comic book character Dazzler in the upcoming movie.It’s well known that Swift is friends with both Reynolds and Levy, with the former attending her recent show along with his wife Blake Lively, and Swift including their children’s names in her song ‘betty’, and with Levy starring in Swift’s short film All Too Well.However, it seems Swift’s friendships with Levy and Reynolds don’t necessarily suggest her involvement in the film, which will be next month.While neither Levy nor Reynolds addressed the rumour for some time, Levy told EW in April: “I regret that I was not quicker to shut it down the first time, so I’m going to default to my very true situation, which is as much as we love each other, the fear of death is so intense in me regarding Ryan and how he desperately wants to avoid talking about all of these proliferating rumours.”Back in May, Jackman, Levy and Reynolds spoke with Fandango about the rumour.

Marvel Studios film Deadpool & Wolverine without telling his agent.In a video interview with Fandango, Hugh Jackman – along with co-star Ryan Reynolds and director Shawn Levy – spoke about how the film’s central idea, which sees Reynolds reunite with Jackman after 2009’s X-Men Origins: Wolverine, came to him “like a bolt of lightning” while he was driving.“[And then] came this knowing deep in my gut that I wanted to do this film with [Reynolds],” he said. “When I said I was done, I really thought I was done.
But in the back of my head, ever since I saw Deadpool, I was like, ‘Those two characters together.’ I knew it, I knew the fans wanted it ever since I put on the claws, people [had] talked about these two.”Jackman added that the moment he got out of the car, he rang up Reynolds to tell him about the film idea. “And I just said, ‘Let’s do it.’ Like, I hadn’t rung my agent, no one.
I had to ring my agent and said, ‘Oh, by the way, I have just committed to a movie.'”Even if Jackman was re-energised by the possibility of a comeback, his casting was not immediately given the thumbs up. Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige revealed to Empire earlier this month that he was unsure about the possibility.“I said [to Jackman], ‘Let me give you a piece of advice, Hugh.
Don’t come back’,” Feige recalled. “‘You had the greatest ending in history with Logan.
That’s not something we should undo.'” He also told Empire that this version of Wolverine will not be the same one featured in previous Marvel films.Reynolds resuscitated the comic book anti-hero with his own lead franchise starting with 2016’s Deadpool.
