Ryan Reynolds - Wade Wilson/Deadpool

Ryan Reynolds returns to lead the cast as Wade Wilson (aka Deadpool). This time around, Reynolds' Deadpool is officially part of the ever-expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU)

Deadpool is taken away from his everyday life by the TVA to inform him about the fact that his universe (Earth-10005) is slowly deteriorating due to Wolverine's death in Logan (he is the Anchor Being of Deadpool's universe). 

Mr. Paradox, a TVA analyst, informs that Deadpool has been elected to join the Sacred Timeline (aka the MCU), but his universe (with all his friends and family) will simply fade away. 

Deciding that he cannot leave his universe behind, Deadpool steals a Tempad and uses it to find a Wolverine across the Multiverse to be his universe's Anchor Being and save it from existence.

Reynolds also portrays another Variant of Deadpool in the movie, a scarless version that goes by the name of Nicepool and is the owner of Dogpool.

Reynolds serves as the threequel's writer, producer, and leading actor. He is best known for his roles in The Proposal, Free Guy, and Green Lantern.

Hugh Jackman - Wolverine

Hugh Jackman reprises his role as Wolverine in the MCU threequel. 

Deadpool 3's Variant of Wolverine is not the same one from Fox's collection of X-Men movies. Instead, this version is described by Paradox as the "worst Wolverine" of the Multiverse since he let his whole world down. 

This washed-up and alcohol-infused Wolverine may be deemed worst by the TVA, but the threequel proves that he can still pack a punch and can fight off enemies like a valued member of the X-Men

Jackman returns as Wolverine after playing the character in nine X-Men films. The actor also appeared in The Greatest Showman, Real Steel, and Van Helsing.

Emma Corrin - Cassandra Nova

Cassandra also owns a sling ring infused with the reality and time stone, which is later used by the two heroes to get back home. 

Corrin's most recognizable role is playing Princess Diana in The Crown. The actress also appeared in My Policeman, Lady Chatterley's Lover, and A Murder at the End of the World.
