Liefeld, who co-created the Merc With a Mouth with Fabian Nicieza, held a Q&A session with his followers on Twitter on Thursday.

A worried fan asked him if a third movie, fronted by Ryan Reynolds, in the franchise was in the works post-Disney-Fox merger.

"Since we're desperate and you're our last hope for answers... do you have any news on a third Deadpool film from Marvel Studios?" the fan asked.

Liefeld assured the follower, simply saying, "It will totally happen! Soon!"

Earlier in January, Liefeld had said that the film will happen soon.

Nothing like deadlines to clear your head... let me be clear Deadpool 3 will happen, some form, some fashion. That’s not a concern to me. Disney paid $60 billion for Fox and Deadpool is most valuable asset in today’s market. Makes more than X-Men films. — robliefeld (@robertliefeld) January 28, 2019

A third film has not yet been confirmed by the studio.

The second part, Deadpool 2, released in 2018.
