"Deadpool" can be said to be Ryan Reynolds' most successful role, without a doubt, and it has also made Fox and Disney a lot of money. Recently, David Leitch, the director of "Deadpool 2", talked about the future development of the "Deadpool" series. He said that the next work "Deadpool 3" does not necessarily have to be an R-rated movie.

Ever since Disney bought Deadpool from Fox, everyone has been wondering how Deadpool should be added to the MCU, but his "R" rating may be a bit difficult. Now, Deadpool 2 director David Leitch has told fans that he believes they will find "the cornerstone of happiness" in the new film.

David Leitch, director of Deadpool 2, said in an interview with Yahoo Movies (UK): "Because Deadpool is not yet in the MCU camp, he is still an R-rated movie, but just like Disney does not only make PG13 movies, 'Deadpool' does not necessarily have to be an R-rated movie. I think everyone can find the cornerstone of happiness in the new work."

Disney CEO Bob Iger has previously stated that Disney will continue to produce R-rated Marvel movies like Deadpool and Wolverine. Previously, some people speculated that Disney might introduce more mature Marvel IPs, but it is still unknown.

Marvel President Kevin Feige recently announced the complete lineup for Phase 4 of the MCU at SDCC 2019, but Phase 4 did not mention anything about Deadpool.
