Ryan Reynolds recently shot a scene as Deadpool for 2017’s “Logan,” TheWrap has exclusively learned.

An individual with knowledge of the project tells TheWrap the “Deadpool” scene in “Logan” will most likely become a post-credit scene. Fox declined to comment.

This will actually be Reynolds’ second time playing Deadpool in a Wolverine film. In 2009’s “X-Men Origins: Wolverine,” he played a very different version of the antihero. In that film, the Merc With a Mouth ends up having no mouth at all — but far more powers than he displayed in this year’s standalone “Deadpool” movie, which reimagined Deadpool as much wittier.

“John Wick” co-director David Leitch, who was hired to direct “Deadpool 2” and replace director Tim Miller, recently directed Reynolds in the new scene.

Leitch is best known for his stunt work, but turned in an impressive directorial debut with the 2014 Keanu Reeves action film, which he co-directed with Chad Stahelski.

Miller, who directed the first “Deadpool,” left the project over creative differences with star Ryan Reynolds. As TheWrap reported exclusively, Miller and Reynolds differed over the tone of the film.

As previously reported, “Logan” is set in 2024 and follows an older, more weary Wolverine, who now has to take care of a sick Professor X with the help of another mutant, Caliban. Mutant births are in decline for unknown reasons, but Logan and the Professor come across a young girl named Laura who has powers similar to Wolverine’s.

“Logan” also stars Hugh Jackman as Logan/Wolverine, Patrick Stewart as Charles Xavier/Professor X, Boyd Holbrook as Donald Pierce, Stephen Merchant as Caliban and Dafne Keen as Laura Kinney, with Elizabeth Rodriguez, Eriq La Salle and Elise Neal.

“Logan” will be released on March 3, 2017.
