The identity of Lady Deadpool in Deadpool & Wolverine has finally been revealed after months of intense speculation. Since Lady Deadpool (sometimes referred to as Ladypool) dramatically appeared in a trailer for the MCU’s Deadpool & Wolverine, there have been several theories proffered regarding her identity. The wildest Deadpool & Wolverine theories included Taylor Swift and even Ryan Reynolds himself, but the actual actor is perhaps even more perfect.
Deadpool & Wolverine bids a fond farewell to the early era of Marvel movies, particularly those released by 20th Century Fox. Simultaneously, the narrative has overarching consequences for the MCU’s future. Fittingly, the movie included a wealth of cameos from the MCU timeline and beyond, including Ladypool. Though Reynolds denied any knowledge of Lady Deadpool’s identity, the woman behind the mask was the ideal choice.
Blake Lively Plays Lady Deadpool In Deadpool & Wolverine

Lady Deadpool appears towards the end of Deadpool & Wolverine as the titular duo face an army of Deadpool variants. Despite the fervor online to discern her identity, the character doesn’t actually remove her mask during the movie. However, the cast listing on IMDB confirms that it is Blake Lively who plays this mysterious Deadpool variant.
Lady Deadpool appears during the thrilling battle with the many Deadpool variants and is the first to step through the portal. Lady Deadpool struts majestically through the smoke with her famed ponytail poking out through the top of her mask. This prompts a stunned Deadpool to gawk at the variant, clearly stunned by her beguiling presence.
Why Blake Lively Was The Perfect Choice For Lady Deadpool
Blake Lively’s casting as Lady Deadpool is an inspired choice for several reasons. Her acting career has been marked by a range of diverse and memorable roles, from her breakout in Gossip Girl to her critically acclaimed role in The Age of Adaline. She has proven her ability to handle both dramatic and action-oriented roles, making her well-suited to the dynamic and unpredictable nature of a character like Lady Deadpool.
More pertinently, Blake Lively is married to Ryan Reynolds, and in many ways could be considered the female variant of Reynolds. Their playful interactions on social media have already shown the world their comedic rapport, making her role in Deadpool & Wolverine a perfect extension of their public personas. Indeed, Lively’s participation in the film becomes a meta-commentary on their real-life chemistry.
This is bolstered by the fact that all other Deadpool variants are enamored by Lady Deadpool. This continues the trend of Deadpool movies commenting on Reynolds’ professional and private life, applying his real-world love for Lively to an entire multiverse of Deadpool variants. It serves as a tribute to Reynolds’ wife and their marriage, and was one of the most satisfying cameos in Deadpool & Wolverine.
