Ryan Reynolds Begs Fans To Stop Leaking 'Deadpool 3' Set Photos: 'Surprises Are Part Of The Magic'

Actor Ryan Reynolds has taken social media to implore avid fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe to please stop sharing spoilers from the set of Deadpool 3.

After a flood of fan and paparazzi photos from the set hit the internet, Reynolds posted to his Instagram Stories a message that begged fans to leave something to the imagination.

In the post, Reynolds called surprises "part of the magic of theatrical movies" and urged fans and paparazzi not to "spoil surprises."

In his post, Reynolds wrote:

“Surprises are part of the magic of theatrical movies. It’s important for us to shoot the new DEADPOOL film in real, natural environments, using practical effects as opposed to making the movie indoors and digitally."

"Telephoto lenses continue to spoil surprises and create a difficult situation for everyone."

He went on to say:

"Here's hoping some of the websites and social channels hold back showing images before they’re ready."

"The film is built for audience joy – and our highest hope is to preserve as much of that magic as possible for the finished film and the big screen."

Reynolds acknowledged that spoilers are motivated by fans' sincere love for the movies, characters and stars.

"Part of the reason people post spoilers is because they’re excited."

"I realize these aren’t real world issues and it’s firmly in the ‘good problems’ bucket. I love making this movie.”

On social media, many fans firmly agreed with Reynolds' post.

Deadpool 3 is one of the most hotly anticipated movies of the upcoming summer 2024 blockbuster season, along with Dune sequel Dune: Part Two and the Mad Max: Fury Road follow-up Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

It is slated to premier July 26, 2024.
