‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ has revealed who plays Lady Deadpool in the movie, and it’s not Blake Lively

Among the dozens of Deadpool variants that appear in ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’,tThere are some that stood out above the rest, the main one being Lady Deadpool. As it turns out, the one playing her turned out to not be Blake Lively, wife of Ryan Reynolds, but instead an actress who specializes in action scenes with experience in films like ‘Wonder Woman’ having put herself in the shoes of Diana Prince when it was time to get down into the mud and perform the most risky scenes.

This is the real Lady Deadpool

Her name is Christiaan Bettridge, and in a post on Instagram she revealed the news, thanking Lively herself, in addition to Reynolds and Shawn Levy, for the opportunity to participate in a film of this caliber. The actress admits that putting on this variant’s suit was always a dream, coming true this past summer.

“When the first Deadpool came out in 2016, before my stunt career had properly started, I was so obsessed with it and thought to myself, if there is ever a Ladypool I want to be her stunt double!”, confesses Bettridge. “A massive thank you needs to be said to @georgejcottle for backing me every step of the way. I can’t thank you enough for this opportunity. Thank you @blakelively @vancityreynolds and @slevydirect for entrusting me with this. I’m forever grateful and honoured.”

Gone are the months in which it was speculated that this role could fall to Taylor Swift, as the singer was a constant in the rumor mill around the cameos of ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’, Dazzler having been the most popular role at the time.
