How long is ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’: Marvel reveals the official runtime of the longest Merc with a Mouth movie
‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ is officially the longest Deadpool movie, but just how long is the newest Marvel Studios film?
‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ with Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, one of the most anticipated Marvel productions in recent years, is lined up to be a true summer blockbuster when it releases on July 25, 2024. Now, we know just how long the movie is going to be: the MCU is dishing out the longest of the ‘Deadpool’ trilogy with it being 127 minutes (2 hours and 7 minutes) long.
‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ is the longest film in the ‘Deadpool’ trilogy
Tickets for ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ are now available ahead of its premiere on July 25, which is where the duration of the movie was reveale, although there are discrepancies due to different movie theater chains publishing slightly different numbers. Some have set its duration at 130 minutes. In any case, it is the longest ‘Deadpool’ movie’ given the length of the two previous films; none of them lasted more than two hours:
- ‘Deadpool’ (2016): 108 minutes.
- ‘Deadpool 2′ (2018): 119 minutes.
Although the increase in duration is not significant compared to ‘Deadpool 2′ (barely ten more minutes), everything indicates that given the character’s taste for jokes of all kinds, These extra minutes will pay off beautifully.
Comparison of the duration of ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ with other recent Marvel films
‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ is part of Phase Five of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Below we leave you a list with the duration of the rest of the feature films already released from this phase of the MCU.
- ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ (2023): 124 minutes.
- ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3′ (2023): 150 minutes.
- ‘The Marvels’ (2023): 105 minutes.
From the list, it can be deduced that recent Marvel movies are around two hours long (120 minutes), thirty minutes longer than what one survey considered to be the perfect duration for a feature film. Some films like ‘The Marvels’ are an anomaly given their footage time of less than these two hours.
The 127-minute length of ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ doesn’t clash too much with the usual length of recent Marvel movies, and It resembles ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ in runtime, which it surpasses by three minutes.
What is ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ about?
After having been manipulating the timelines at will with Cable’s time machine at the end of ‘Deadpool 2′, Wade Wilson (Ryan Reynolds) is arrested by the TVA, and they take the opportunity to recruit him for a dangerous mission: stopping Cassandra Nova, the twin sister of Professor Charles Xavier and also a powerful telepath whose potential threatens different realities.
By the way, Deadpool will recruit a variant of Wolverine (Hugh Jackman), who will help in this peculiar mission against Nova. During the feature film, the love-hate relationship between Wade and Logan will be explored, particularly the former’s unhealthy obsession with the latter.
Behind the cameras is Shawn Levy (‘Free Guy’, ‘The Adam Project’), and the script is written by Rhet Reese, Paul Wernick, Zeb Wells, and Levy and Reynolds themselves.
