“Deadpool & Wolverine” can add another name to its list of cameos.
Stunt coordinator and second unit director George Cottle revealed Monday on Instagram that Tom Holland’s brother, Harry Holland, was a part of the “Deadpool & Wolverine” stunt team.
“When [Shawn Levy] and [Ryan Reynolds] set the bar so f’ing high, even the stunt team needed a special guest star!!” Cottle wrote on his Instagram story. “It may not [be] the Holland the world wanted, but it was the Holland we all needed!!”
Cottle also shared a behind-the-scenes photo of Harry Holland, who played a Deadpool variant in the superhero threequel. “You smashed it my friend,” he wrote directly to Harry Holland, along with the hashtag #Haroldpool.

Harry Holland’s role came as a surprise to many — even Ryan Reynolds himself.
The Deadpool actor shared Cottle’s post on his own Instagram story, adding the message: “This is how I find out?!? You tell me?”
This is not the first time Harry Holland has worked on a Marvel film: He played a bicycle thief in 2021’s “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” starring his brother Tom Holland as the title role. Although his cameo was cut from the final film, it was included in “Spider-Man: No Way Home – The More Fun Stuff Version.”
“Deadpool & Wolverine” features dozens of cameos and easter eggs in its 127-minute runtime, including the return of X-Men characters such as Sabretooth (Tyler Mane) and Pyro (Aaron Stanford) from 20th Century Fox’s film series.
The comic book tentpole, starring Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, scored $211 million in its domestic box office debut, making it the sixth-biggest opening of all time.
