As you can imagine, the news was music to the ears of fans who are looking forward to seeing heroes across many of the alternate Marvel universes popping up in titles. We’ve already seen Charles Xavier making an appearance in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, and so it looks like the studio now has McKellen on standby.

Fans were also curious if this meant other versions of their favorite heroes and villains would be appearing in Deadpool 3. Many are hoping to see a cameo of Michael Fassbender’s version of Magneto in the film as well. Anything’s possible with the multiverse, although there currently is no news to suggest Fassbender will be making an appearance.

Ryan Reynolds made the announcement that Deadpool 3 was underway last year in a video that also how it ties in to the multiverse saga.

McKellen’s last appearance as Magneto was almost 10 years ago, in 2014’s X-Men Days of Future Past. The actor is 83 years old now but it sounds like he’s still game for another round as the infamous Magneto and the fans are here for it.

Deadpool 3 is set for release Nov. 8, 2024.
