Deadpool 2 has seen its fair share of production problems, with director Tim Miller exiting because of creative difference and composer Junkie XL following. Despite this, Fox is already planning the third Deadpool movie, and according to The Hollywood Reporter, its storyline will feature the superhero team X-Force.

The X-Force is a team of mutants that is most commonly associated with the X-Men. Despite its inclusion of many X-Men members, X-Force is a more violent, aggressive team. It's featured characters such as Wolverine, Cyclops, and Colossus, in addition to those that are expected to appear in Deadpool 2 like Cable, Domino, and--of course--Deadpool.
