Deadpool 3 is directed by Shawn Levy, who is known for the films Free Guy and Night at the Museum, and as the executive producer of Stranger Things.

In an interview with Wired in October, Shawn Levy addressed many of the rumors surrounding the film. He spoke about the support he received from Marvel and Kevin Feige for sticking with the R-rated format of Deadpool as well as the meta-references the character brings. He also addressed the cameos that have been surfacing on the internet.

“Ryan and I spend a lot of time together in real life, scrolling Twitter and reading the daily rumors. I feel like the number of cameos in Deadpool 3 is rumored to be in the eighties, and it ranges from Taylor Swift to Jennifer Garner. I love that there’s so much misinformation out there, no one can tell what might be real.”

 

In the interview, he ended the topic by neither confirming nor denying the cameos, specifically Taylor Swift, who is supposed to be Alison Blaire a.k.a the Dazzler.
