# Deadpool 3 Will Feature New Costume Designs Inspired by the ’90s X-Men Cartoon
**After years of the X-Men movie franchise shying away from colorful costumes for its characters, Deadpool 3 is set to change things up.** Previously, the live-action films featuring Marvel’s mutants stuck to dull black outfits, loosely based on designs from Frank Quitely’s New X-Men. However, the upcoming Deadpool 3 film seems ready to break this tradition.
**The recent announcement that Jennifer Garner will reprise her role as Elektra Natchios in Deadpool 3 has sparked excitement among fans.** Garner’s return as the Greek assassin Elektra was unexpected but much welcomed by fans. Ryan Reynolds, who plays Deadpool, took to Instagram to share a photo of himself and co-star Hugh Jackman in costume as Deadpool and Wolverine respectively. The image suggests that Deadpool 3 will feature a throwback to the iconic ’90s X-Men cartoon series, which prominently showcased Wolverine’s vibrant blue and yellow costume.
**Many wonder which other characters from the X-Men universe might make a comeback in Deadpool 3.** With the film set to release on May 3rd, 2024, speculation is rife about which beloved characters or teams may be reintroduced. The Fantastic Four movies are among the possibilities, as fans eagerly anticipate the integration of Deadpool and the X-Men into the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
