‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ Director Shawn Levy Speaks On Saving The MCU With The Movie

Will Deadpool and Wolverine actually save the MCU? The film’s director Shawn Levy addresses the seeming weight on his shoulders with his Marvel project.

However, when speaking about the film’s role in “saving” the MCU, director Shawn Levy admitted he only set out to make different, and didn’t expect to be put in this cultural context. This is perfectly captured by reports that Hugh Jackman will pick up the claws one final time after Deadpool and Wolverine to take a starring role in Avengers: Secret Wars.
