Ryan Reynolds has been spotted filming the highly-anticipated Deadpool 3 in London.
The actor, 46, reprised his role as the irreverent Wade Wilson, also known as Deadpool, for the upcoming Marvel project. Fans have eagerly awaited the next installment in the franchise, which is set to continue the story from Deadpool 2.
