Deadpool may (or may not) be in a state of flux due to the Disney/Fox purchase, but Ryan Reynolds is still thinking about plans for the third entry. While promoting the premiere of Deadpool 2 in China, Reynolds said (per Variety) that they’re planning on going in a “completely different direction” for the threequel.

Reynolds told the site that his team was already working on the third film. He noted that the change in direction is because “often, they reboot or change a character maybe like four movies too late.”

China’s release of Deadpool 2 is the PG-13 version, titled Once Upon a Deadpool in the US and, hilariously, Deadpool 2: I Love My Family in China. The original Deadpool did not get a release in China due to the R-rated content.
