In the movies, Deadpool is a hard R-rated character, but is family friendly in the park. Together with Wolverine, the “Story Time with Deadpool” show is very fun to watch and is held in the courtyard of the Hyperion, between Guardians and the Hyperion. Deadpool has also shown up in the “Awesome Dance Off,” and “Avengers Assemble” shows in Avengers Campus. – https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2024/07/27/i-am-shocked-and-grateful-that-disney-let-these-2-characters-into-a-park/ More Encanto is coming to the resort, according to a casting call online.
