Don"t Worry, Deadpool & Wolverine Doesn"t Need Taylor Swift To Hit $1 Billion

:0:1

Summary

Disappointing reports confirm Taylor Swift won't appear in Deadpool & Wolverine, but the movie doesn't need her for success.
Despite her massive stardom, Swift doesn't have the best track record at the box office when it comes to her acting career.
Anticipation for Deadpool & Wolverine is high, with the movie likely to be a box office hit even without Swift.

Disappointing reports have confirmed Taylor Swift will not appear in Deadpool & Wolverine, but the upcoming MCU movie doesn't need the pop singer for box office success. Speculation has existed for a few years that Swift would make a cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine. The theory was that Swift would play a pop star mutant named Dazzler, who does have some resemblance to the "Fortnight" singer in the comics. The speculation grew stronger after Swift was seen at an NFL game in the same suite as Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, and director Shawn Levy.
Deadpool & Wolverine's marketing team may have intentionally stirred the pot with posters that featured friendship bracelets and a recent trailer that included what seems to be a shot of Lady Deadpool. Unfortunately for Swifties, a recent report from EW debunked this theory, saying Swift will not appear in the movie. It's fair to say that many cameos in superhero films have been debunked only for them to be true when the movie comes out, but audiences will have to wait and see. Fortunately, Deadpool & Wolverine doesn't need Swift to be a box office hit.

Related 10 Reasons Deadpool & Wolverine's Box Office Could Be The First MCU Movie In 3 Years To Earn $1 Billion There are several key indicators to suggest that Deadpool & Wolverine will be the first MCU movie in 3 years to earn over 1 Billion dollars.
Taylor Swift Doesn't Have A Great Box Office Track Record As An Actor Close Swift's star has always been bright since her musical debut, but it absolutely exploded in 2023. The musician sold out arenas worldwide while on her Eras Tour and dominated the streaming charts with her Midnights album. Her concert film, Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour, brought millions of Swifties to theaters, grossing $267.1 million worldwide. She continues her global dominance in 2024, breaking streaming records with her eleventh studio album, The Tortured Poets Department.
Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour is currently streaming on Disney+.
However, Swift's massive star power hasn't translated into box-office gold for her acting career. Her earliest roles, Valentine's Day and The Lorax, were hits, but it's hard to argue that audiences went to see those movies for Swift, especially when it was so early in her career. Her last two films, Cats and Amsterdam, were both critical and box office flops. Cats grossed $75.5 million on an estimated budget of $95 million and Amsterdam garnered $31.2 million on an $80 million budget. Swift wasn't the star of either film, but they still featured her in their marketing campaigns.
Deadpool And Wolverine Are Enough Of A Draw To Hit $1 Billion Close Anticipation for Deadpool & Wolverine is high, and it will likely be a box office smash, whether Swift is in it or not. The pre-sale tickets are already selling quickly as many have waited a long time to see Reynolds return for a third outing as the Merc With The Mouth. Jackman is also coming out of retirement to portray Wolverine once again, and his team-up with Deadpool will produce comedy gold. If anticipation surrounding the film wasn't enough, the two mutants have great track records at the box office.
The first two Deadpool films combined for over $1 billion, with Deadpool making $782.6 million worldwide and Deadpool 2 grossing $785.8 million. Jackman's Wolverine has been the face of the X-Men franchise for over 20 years, and his last outing, Logan, made $619.2 million at the box office. With the upward trend in Deadpool's box office, Wolverine's notoriety, and the premise of these characters joining the MCU, Deadpool & Wolverine is a recipe for a $1 billion outcome.
