Lady Deadpool officially made her MCU debut in Deadpool & Wolverine, and our guess on the actress who played her has been right all along.
For the past few weeks, fans have speculated which actress plays Lady Deadpool in the highly-anticipated MCU film since the trailer revealed her appearance.

Blake Lively Plays Lady Deadpool in Deadpool & Wolverine
As most fans have suspected for the past few weeks, Lady Deadpool in Deadpool & Wolverine was played by no other than Blake Lively.
The character appeared as one of the members of the Deadpool Corps that Wade Wilson and Wolverine fought in the "Like a Prayer" street battle during the third act of the film.
While she didn't unmask throughout her entire appearance, most fans were able to recognize Lively's voice behind the female variant.
For weeks, fans theorized that Lively might be playing Lady Deadpool in the film since she is Reynolds' wife and it would be a perfect easter egg casting that references the actor's marital life.
It would have been great for some fans if Lively also played the character unmasked and had her share the screen in person with her real-life husband, but it's still exciting that she was able to voice her and become part of the film in some capacity.
Aside from Lively, the other actors who made cameo appearances as members of the Deadpool Corps are Matthew McConaughey (Cowboy Deadpool) and Nathan Fillion (Headpool).
Deadpool & Wolverine is now showing in theaters everywhere.
