Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool stunt double has appeared in an image with the star – but everyone was distracted by his giant bulge!

In the world of Hollywood action films, where larger-than-life stunts and jaw-dropping special effects dominate the scene, it takes something truly extraordinary to capture the audience’s attention.

Recently, fans of Ryan Reynolds and the ever-popular Deadpool franchise found themselves distracted by an unexpected spectacle on set: the impressive bulge of Reynolds’ stunt double.

During the filming of the highly anticipated third instalment, Deadpool & Wolverine, a series of behind-the-scenes photos and videos surfaced online, showcasing the high-octane stunts and intricate fight choreography that have become synonymous with the franchise.

However, amidst the usual excitement, eagle-eyed fans quickly honed in on one particular detail that set social media abuzz: the conspicuously massive bulge in the suit of Reynolds’ stunt double.

Deadpool 3 is one of the most eagerly anticipated films in the superhero genre, particularly because it marks the character’s first entry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) following Disney’s acquisition of 20th Century Fox.

Fans are excited to see how the irreverent, foul-mouthed anti-hero will fit into the broader, often family-friendly world of the MCU.

Ryan Reynolds is set to reprise his role as Wade Wilson, aka Deadpool.

Reynolds’ portrayal of the character has been universally acclaimed, with his sharp wit and comedic timing bringing the Merc with a Mouth to life in a way that fans adore.

Reynolds is also heavily involved in the development of the film, ensuring that Deadpool’s unique tone and humour are maintained.

One of the biggest concerns for fans was whether Deadpool 3 would retain its R-rating under Disney’s ownership.

Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige has confirmed that the film will indeed be R-rated, preserving the mature themes, graphic violence, and crude humour that have become hallmarks of the Deadpool franchise.

While specific plot details are still under wraps, there is speculation about which characters might join Deadpool in his third outing.

The film is set to hit screens in the United States on July 26, 2024, as part of Phase Five of the MCU.

But all this excitement isn’t the only reason that people are talking about the upcoming superhero extravaganza.

Reynolds’ stunt double, Alex Kyshkovych, appeared in an image of the pair on set.

But the filthy-minded internet could only focus on one thing.

Kyshkovych’s giant bulge!

The internet, being the internet, erupted with memes, tweets, and Reddit threads dedicated to this surprising and, for many, amusing revelation.

Comments ranged from humorous quips about the stunt double’s ‘enhanced superpowers’ to lighthearted speculation about the possible discomfort of performing such stunts with such an obvious physical feature.

One post reads: “Forget the Merc with a Mouth, looks like Deadpool’s got some serious backup down there!”

Another fan questions: “Is that part of the costume or is Deadpool smuggling chimichangas?”

As we await the release of Deadpool 3, fans remain eager for any updates, sneak peeks, or behind-the-scenes glimpses of their favourite anti-hero.
