Famke Janssen has had a long and steady acting career for years and shown no signs of slowing down. The actress has been in hit movies such as GoldenEye and Marvel’s X-Men franchise – where she played Jean Grey, a role that many have associated her with over the years – leading fans to wonder if she’ll appear in Deadpool & Wolverine AKA Deadpool 3.
Her part in the X-Men films helped shape how the general audience views the well-known comic book as the actress was able to put her signature on the role. Fan speculation for the movie has just about any character that you can thinking of returning in the Deadpool & Wolverine in some fashion due to other cameos already having been leaked.
Hugh Jackman is returning as Wolverine – and some have considered that the connection between Logan and Jean Grey would be strong enough for Janssen to return to the role. Unfortunately, there’s sad news for anyone hoping to see that return happen.
While Janssen was promoting Boy Kills World, we were able to ask the actress about a return for Deadpool 3 at this year’s WonderCon, Janssen stated:
“I’m not in [Deadpool & Wolverine]. No. Everybody keeps asking. So, at some point, I was like, ‘Wait, am I in Deadpool, and I just don’t know it yet?’ But, no. I’m not. No, no.”
Janssen did, however, show signs of optimism as she shared news on her latest project with a major streaming service:
“I’m about to embark on a huge Netflix project. And we’re shooting it in Amsterdam for six months. It’s called ‘Amsterdam Empire.’ In my own language, for the first time, Dutch. I’ve never acted in my language before. I left when I was 17 and didn’t start acting until I came to the (United) States. Yeah, I mean, it’s a great character. It’s a great show. It’s very different; it’s a departure for me, so I’m excited.”
It would have been a really nice treat if Famke Janssen made a cameo in the latest X-Men movie, but unfortunately, that won’t be the case this time around. Fans of the actress can see the actress appear in Boy Kills World on April 26th and Amsterdam Empire in 2025.
