Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman are teaming up once more for Avengers: Doomsday.
Amid widespread speculation about the characters appearing in the upcoming Marvel film, Entertainment Weekly reported on November 12 that the Deadpool & Wolverine stars are getting writing credits on Avengers: Doomsday.
The Writers Guild of America lists both actors among those receiving “additional literary material” credits, per EW. It is pertinent to note that the pair are not officially credited as the film’s screenwriters; that distinction belongs to Stephen McFeely and Michael Waldron, who penned the screenplay.

Reynolds’ involvement is hardly surprising. He co-wrote both Deadpool 2 and Deadpool & Wolverine, making him a familiar creative voice behind the franchise. For Jackman, however, the credit marks a first in his 25-year run as Wolverine.
Neither actor has confirmed an appearance in the upcoming film. Reynolds previously said he hadn’t “stepped foot on set,” but later crashed the movie’s San Diego Comic-Con panel dressed as Jeanpool.
The film is scheduled to hit theatres on December 18 and will feature the late Patrick Stewart in what is expected to be his final onscreen role.
