In spite of a few assurances to the contrary, rumors that Taylor Swift would appear in the latest Deadpool movie have persisted for years — all the way up until the new film premiered last month, revealing that she wasn’t involved after all. But in a new interview with Entertainment Weekly published Monday (Aug. 5), director Shawn Levy revealed that there was never any chance of the pop star joining the franchise to begin with, no matter how much fans may have hoped for it.
“It was so very loud,” Levy told the outlet of the internet buzz from Swifties hoping for a cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine, which hit theaters July 26. “I definitely had moments where I was worried I would disappoint people when they realized Taylor as Dazzler was not in the movie, but there’s no controlling the internet and rumors spread like wildfire.”
Trending on Billboard
Many of the rumors stemmed from the 14-time Grammy winner’s close friendships with the movie’s star, Ryan Reynolds, and his wife, actress Blake Lively. Levy is also pals with Swift, having appeared in her “All Too Well” short film in 2021, but according to him, “it was never a conversation” that the “Anti-Hero” singer might pop up in the Marvel film.
“It was never even a seed of a discussion,” he added. “Obviously, Ryan and Blake, and myself — to a far lesser extent — have our own relationships in real life with Taylor. But yeah, those rumors were loud and slightly baffling, but nothing I said or did was going to make them quiet down until this movie came out.”
Before their hopes were shot, fans had been wanting to see Swift in a Deadpool film since as far back as 2016, when the star borrowed Reynolds’ actual superhero suit for her Halloween costume. Rumors that the crossover might actually happen only continued to fester when the Free Guy star sported a T-shirt with Swift’s cats, Meredith and Olivia, printed on it in 2018’s Deadpool 2, and again when he appeared to re-create the Evermore album in costume earlier this year.
Reynolds, however, shut down the rumors — or attempted to, at least — in a July appearance on The Tonight Show. “I wish,” he said when host Jimmy Fallon asked him point-blank whether Swift was in Deadpool & Wolverine.
“If I ever stop, she’d make a good Deadpool,” he added at the time. “She’s funny, funny, funny!”

Dennis Quaid appeared on the PBD Podcast and talked about the time he starred opposite 2Pac, James Belushi and James Earl Jones in the 1997 movie Gang Related.
“That was so great,” the actor said of working with the rapper. “I was kinda familiar with 2Pac when we did that movie. We both loved Chinese food, it turns out. So, he and I would be in the trailer, like, every day. We had Chinese food five days in a row.”

“At the time, I really didn’t know much about who he was,” Quaid continued. “I knew who he was, but it’s like we got in there and we talked about acting, we talked about growing up, we talked about our mothers. He had such a great heart. He was such a talented actor too and he had a thirst to learn.”

“I didn’t know he was a poet, really, because that’s what he was. He told the story of how they tried to kill him before in New York, and it was hysterical the way he told it, but it was, like, for real. Then six months later he got killed,” he shared as his emotions started to get the best of him. “That one really hit me hard. It really did.”
Quaid then highlighted how vulnerable Pac was, and how much he could’ve given to the world: “He had so much to give the world, he really did. He would’ve wound up being such a uniter of people.”
The actor later added, “He was just a human being. He was a kid and he was a vulnerable person. He wasn’t like this ‘gangster,’ this, or that, or the other. He had a poet’s heart … It was his vulnerability and he had this curiosity about other people, including me. You never put the two of us together, eating Chinese food in a trailer. But there we were.”
Gang Related was one of several movies released posthumously after 2Pac’s September 1996 death; Gridlock’d, in which he starred alongside Tim Roth, arrived in January 1997.
