Matthew Macfadyen has his first post-Succession gig lined up.
The Ryan Reynolds franchise will welcome Macfadyen, who plays the fan-favourite Tom Wambsgans on the HBO water-cooler smash, joining a new sequel that will also revive Hugh Jackman’s beloved X-Men character Wolverine, reports ‘Variety’.
It was reported in December 2022 that production on the third ‘Deadpool’ will commence in May.
Macfadyen won a supporting actor Emmy and BAFTA Award in 2022 for his role as Tom Wambsgans, Shiv Roy’s husband, on the HBO family drama, which recently kicked off its fourth and final season.
His previous credits include Joe Wright’s ‘Pride & Prejudice’, ‘Frost/Nixon’, ‘The Assistant’ and ‘Operation Mincemeat’.
He will next appear in the feature ‘Holland, Michigan’ opposite Nicole Kidman and Gael Garcia Bernal.
The fourth and final season of ‘Succession’ is currently airing on HBO.
