Deadpool & Wolverine Has a Cameo That Even Ryan Reynolds Didn’t Know About

Deadpool & Wolverine Has a Cameo That Even Ryan Reynolds Didn't Know About

As a lifelong Marvel enthusiast, I must say that Deadpool & Wolverine has truly outdone itself in terms of cameos and Easter eggs. Being a fan since the early days of comics, it’s always exciting to see these characters come to life on screen, and this film has certainly delivered.


In the action-packed film starring Deadpool and Wolverine, there are numerous surprise appearances (cameos) and hidden references (Easter eggs) that make it challenging to keep count. However, one cameo that even the movie’s lead actor, Ryan Reynolds, was unaware of is particularly significant. While actors aren’t always privy to every detail, this specific cameo brings Reynolds into close proximity with another Marvel superhero who didn’t feature in his film – a certain web-slinging Avenger, portrayed by Tom Holland, who is well-known for his Spidey senses.

Through a post on Instagram, Reynolds shared that he learned Harry Holland, the younger brother of actor Tom Holland, played a stunt double in the movie. Interestingly, this information was initially shared by stunt coordinator George Cottle, who posted a picture of Harry in a Deadpool costume. In his caption, Cottle expressed that when directors Slevin Yount and Ryan Reynolds set such high standards, even the stunt team required a guest star. Though not the Holland everyone anticipated, he was exactly what we needed, according to Cottle. He added that Harry did an excellent job, referring to him as #haroldpool.

Tom Holland might not be featured in Deadpool & Wolverine, but his brother, Harry Holland, has been part of several productions with him. These include The Impossible, Cherry, and Spider-Man: No Way Home. Additionally, he provided a voiceover for The Mandalorian.

Deadpool & Wolverine: A Record-Smashing Cameo Spectacle

The movie featuring Deadpool and Wolverine is shattering box-office records, causing Marvel Cinematic Universe leaders to approve with approval. There’s no sugarcoating it – this film set a new record for the highest opening weekend gross of any R-rated movie ever (nearly half a billion worldwide). It also holds the title for the best opening weekend of any film in 2024 thus far. Will the upcoming comic book blockbuster Joker: Folie à Deux outperform it? At this point, it’s uncertain.

The film’s unique blend of high-octane action and hilarious comedy is difficult to surpass, as it has won over audiences with its self-referential, fourth-wall-breaking character in what is undeniably the actor’s most outrageous film yet. Joining forces with Wolverine, this character aims to restore order by merging multiverses and comic book franchises. Given Ryan Reynolds’ history with the Deadpool character, it was expected that he and his writing team would choose this unconventional route for Deadpool & Wolverine. However, upon its release, some critics criticized the film’s approach to pop culture and fan service. This film, without a doubt, offers top-tier entertainment with its boundary-pushing nature. The cameos in the movie have been a major draw, although we won’t reveal what they are. We can tell you that negotiations were necessary, contracts had to be signed, and past appearances in other films had to be addressed by those who may not have been keen on revisiting them.
