Deadpool & Wolverine Star Blake Lively Explains How Her Ladypool Cameo Became A Reality

There was a huge amount of speculation surrounding the identity of Lady Deadpool before Deadpool & Wolverine's release, with three possibilities becoming particularly popular heading into last month.
Those were singer Taylor Swift, Blake Lively, and...Ryan Reynolds in a wig!
Lively ended up lending her voice to the Variant and broke her silence on being cast as the female Merc with the Mouth during a recent talk show appearance to promote It Ends With Us. She started by explaining Lady Deadpool's origin and how that led to her becoming the McU's version of Wanda Wilson.
"Well, that was like a neat little surprise," Lively started. "Rob Liefeld, who drew Ladypool...I had no idea but in 2010, he drew Lady Deadpool and at the same time, I was cast in the Green Lantern with my now husband, who was not my husband then."
"The timeline, I know it gets a little wonky.
