Deadpool's Ryan Reynolds has revealed exactly who he wants to make a cameo in X-Force, and it's hardly a surprising choice.

Speaking to BuzzFeed at the San Diego Comic Con, the cast of Deadpool 2 shared who they thought would make a great addition to the team-up movie.

Karan Soni, who plays Dopinder, quickly chimed in with Celine Dion – who provided the opening theme for Deadpool 2 and an amusing music video to go with it.

Other suggestions included Howard the Duck (he's popped up in the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise), The Blob and Captain Planet.

But when it got to Reynolds himself, there was obviously only one person he could pick – Hugh Jackman.

However, Reynolds doesn't want Jackman to appear as his X-Men character Wolverine. He wants to appear as himself. Or his Les Mis character – because that would be far more meta.

Reynolds and Jackman have enjoyed a comical back-and-forth for a couple of years now, fuelling demand for a Deadpool and Wolverine crossover.

And Jackman gave fans hope that it may actually happen when he refused to rule out the idea earlier this year.

Responding to Reynolds' begging, Jackman said on Good Morning America: "I'd like to send a little message for Ryan. Ryan, I love you, man. I love Deadpool – I can't wait to see the movie, you're one of my best friends.

"But just back it up a little, play a little hard to get – it's too much, it's not sexy, am I right? Sorry about that."

So that's not a 'no'.
