The world of the Marvel Cinematic Universe could soon welcome a new, well-known face, and we're not talking about a superhero. According to fan theories, award-winning artist Taylor Swift has confirmed her involvement in the upcoming film Deadpool & Wolverine, thanks to her new double album, The Tortured Poets Department.
Is Taylor Swift sending "messages" about her being in Deadpool & Wolverine?
Fan enthusiasm was fueled by a song on Swift's album, titled Clara Bow. According to some fans, the song's lyrics contain a reference to the mutant Dazzler, a character often associated with the singer. The lines “You look like Taylor Swift/In this light/We're loving it/You've got an edge, she never did/The future's bright/Dazzling” have led fans to speculate that Swift could play Dazzler in Deadpool & Wolverine.
Rumors about Swift's possible involvement in the MCU are not new. Her close friendship with Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively has fueled speculation about her possible entry into the franchise and, furthermore, director Shawn Levy, of Deadpool & Wolverine, has never completely ruled out these hypotheses, further contributing to the enthusiasm of fans. The director said the idea of Swift's involvement in the role of Dazzler was discussed on social media daily and stressed that she would be an exciting choice for the film.
