Throughout her career, the Bad Blood singer has made sound strategic decisions that have sky-rocketed her popularity and guided her as a leading name in the music industry as well as on social media. It looks like her popularity is going to reach new levels as she is set to join the MCU and it’s not going to be a mere cameo as Dazzler in the upcoming Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman starrer Deadpool & Wolverine.

Taylor Swift Is Set To Join The MCU In a New Avatar

The rumors of Taylor Swift joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe are immense as Swifties are desperately reading between the lines of hints and clues. For a long time, Swift has been rumored with Kevin Feige’s superhero franchise because she was set to become one of the biggest castings of all time.

Moreover, it was believed that the actress would make her much anticipated debut in Deadpool 3 as Dazzler. A lot of striking similarities are present between the Fortnight singer and Dazzler in the comics, and it would be great to witness her being a part of the X-Men franchise.

However, it turns out Taylor Swift will not be featured in the rumored role of a mutant as Daniel Richtman (@DanielRPK) has shared on his Patreon. He said via Nexus Point News (@NexusPointNews) how she will potentially not be featured as Dazzler or in Deadpool & Wolverine. Instead, she will now portray the role of the Blonde Phantom in a TV series of her own, which is in development.

The news led to a thumbs from Swifties, but a lot of Marvel fans have raised their eyebrows as they shared their mixed views on the potential change in roles and Swift getting a TV Series of her own.

She works for this role as well. She’s got options now. Maybe she doesn’t want to play a singer superhero as Dazzler 🤷🏼‍♂️

This shouldn’t be an MCU project
They should label it Disney or something

Even though the potential casting has mixed reviews from the fans, considering MCU’s condition on how desperately they need their films and series to be successful. The addition of the Delicate singer to the franchise would be great, considering her enormous fan following that alone can make the franchise successful.

With Swift so heavily linked with joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe and potentially featuring in Deadpool & Wolverine, starring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, it has got an interesting reaction from the star of the upcoming film. During an exclusive interview with Fandango featuring Shawn Levy, Hugh Jackman, and Reynolds, the latter revealed an interesting tid-bit.

The Red Notice actor opened up about the potential of so many names linked to the film and though he is not stating that all of them would end up in the film, the faces in the film would definitely surprise its viewers. He said,

You know, movies like this… there‘s so much speculation about so many people that might end up in the film. I saw one that was convinced that Elvis is in the movie. Anything can happen, and that’s sort of what I love about this universe. Surprises are the essence of Deadpool.

Well, it will be indeed exciting to witness the Cruel Summer singer be a part of the film, but witnessing her in a superhero avatar would be the cherry on top of the cake.
