Ryan Reynolds’ upcomingDeadpool 3movie is almost around the corner, and fans are still getting new information about the third installment. One of the most interesting arcs in the film is Wade Wilson’s love life, and it seems like it is not happening anymore.

Morena Baccarin portrayed Vanessa Carlysle in the movies, and although she’s only a minor character, her arc affects that of Wade’s so much. As his fiancée, the events that happen to the character drive Deadpool’s motivations, and as per a new report from director Shawn Levy, it seems these efforts were futile.
Deadpool 3’s Vanessa Has A New Boyfriend
In an interview withTotal FilmviaCollider, filmmakerShawn Levyrevealed whatRyan Reynolds’ Deadpool is up to when the audience meets him in the third movie.
It takes place six years after the last film. He’s proving to be useless at selling cars, hawking Blind Al’s blood-pressure meds to make rent, and his beloved Vanessa has a new boyfriend.

The first two concepts were not surprising at all, but what caught fans’ attention was the statement that claimedMorena Baccarin’s Vanessa has a new lover. Whatever happened to her and Wade? Netizens could not seem to grasp this reality, and many expressed their disappointment.

So the second movie is effectively pointless now.
Why does Hollywood do this?

So he saved her life at the end of Deadpool 2 only for that to mean nothing and for her to just leave him? Sounds pretty ungrateful to me.

Damn as soon as Marvel brought Deadpool they decided “Oh he saved his gf from dying at end. We gotta make him lose her. Can’t make any relationship successful here” 💀

Vanessa dating someone else?? Dude literally went back in time to save her and went through hell and back in the first movie all for her!

WithHugh Jackmanon board as Wolverine, Wade’s relationship with Vanessa perhaps will receive little attention. Some fans also speculate the move was to slowly detachDeadpoolfrom Fox characters so they could seamlessly throw him into the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
It is definitely shocking news because, for the first two movies, Vanessa played an important role in pushingDeadpool’s story.
Morena Baccarin On Playing Vanessa Carlysle
Morena Baccarin spoke withScreen Rantand shared what she thought aboutVanessaand Wade’s relationship through the years.
I think that the franchise and Ryan and the director, they’ve done a really great job of always reinventing that relationship and making it interesting, but maintaining the core thing that keeps them always coming back to each other.
The Brazilian actress noted how the duo is “such well-met characters” and they are always “in and out of each other’s lives constantly.” She added that it’s the same way in the comics.
Moreover, theFireflystar teased that fans will see more of this in the upcoming movie. She also clarified that her work is done in the third film. Her return is one of the most anticipated events after the controversial “fridging” of her character inDeadpool 2.
“He makes everything more interesting”: Deadpool & Wolverine Director Shawn Levy Can Start a Franchise Where Deadpool Just Teams up With Other Avengers in Each Movie
It’s a mystery what happens to Vanessa in the upcoming sequel, but whether or not she discovers mutant powers like in the comics, her return to the franchise surely keeps the door ajar for a range of possibilities.
Deadpool & Wolverinehits theaters on July 26.
