Regarding Deadpool 3, Shawn described how he aimed to emulate Return of the Jedi. “For one key scene in the movie, I said to my stunt and action team, ‘Guys, this is the Jedi moment,’” he wrote. “I pulled up that scene of Vader and Luke on my phone and restudied how it was photographed, how it was blocked, the framing, the tempo.” Deadpool 3 will release on July 26, 2024.
