Internet reacts to Taylor Swift's praise for 'Deadpool & Wolverine'

Some fans expected Taylor Swift to be the Lady Deadpool in 'Deadpool & Wolverine' movie amid speculations after the movie's marketing included posters that feature Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds' characters wearing friendship bracelets similar to those worn by Swift fans in Eras Tour.

However, the speculation of her appearing in the cameo has been put to rest by Entertainment Weekly.

"SHE SHOULD HAVE BEEN LADY DEADPOOL," wrote one on X (formerly Twitter).

"Damn she both praise Hugh and roasted Ryan in one post," noted one with a laughing emoticon.

"Oh nah she’s gonna boost the box office even more now," predicted a user with Swift's promotion and link to tickets. 

"SHE SUPPORTS HER FRIENDS!!" wrote another. Notably,

The 'Cruel Summer' singer has known Reynolds, for several years through her lifelong connection with Lively.

She appeared to get to know Jackman, and filmmaker Levy, better during the fall of 2023, when the 'Deadpool & Wolverine' stars and its director accompanied her and Lively to an NFL game to watch Swift's boyfriend Travis Kelce play for the Kansas City Chiefs.
