The agreement also provides Disney with the opportunity to reunite the X-MEN with the Marvel family under one roof and create richer, more complex worlds of inter-related characters and stories that audiences have shown they love. It only makes sense for Marvel to be supervised by one entity. There shouldn't be two Marvels.

You're right Black Panther shot up like a rocket the over the last few years, I hadn't thought about him but I also was left feeling meh' about the movie, again I was in the minority, but I would still comfortably say Wolverine is the more popular character by a significant margin. You could also definitely be right about Shang-Chi, that movie has huge potential both domestically and overseas.
He isn't "last" big star. There is a female that also made a billion. The two of form a beginning of pretty good trinity with Black Panther being Batman/Iron Man and Captain Marvel being Superman/Captain America. I use to think that Spiderman(or Dr Strange) would slide in as that last star. But now maybe Wolverine could sneak into that group.
I doubt Shang Chi will gross higher than them, China or somebody else is going to have pull serious weight because I don't see a martial art heavy movie drawing like that in the US.
Goodness these guys are businessmen first.The bottom line drive their decision making Deadpool is getting made on sheer fact on Deadpool merchandising alone. Stop with these silly conspiracy theories. There is zero doubt Deadpool 3 happening they even did a test run to see how PG 13 Deadpool movie would do. If one thing Fox did right it was Deadpool franchise they both did 700 million as R which is impressive, They both did on low budgets 58 million for first and 110 for the second. Deadpool is gold for Disney. Deadpool can be made on pocket money and it is proven it can return the investment and double and even triple it.
It doesn't make sense to rush out Deadpool, Having access to use other X-characters or knowing what X-characters they can use will help the movie ,It is not a guarantee they can use colossus he might be part of big plans for the X-men . Even without that Disney hasn't set up how it is going to deal with other R Fox properties as yet, They have Aliens, Predators,etc. It is process that should do right.Fans are weird, Disney has crap ton of properties we knew this is the downside of everything being with them. There is no rush to release Deadpool 3 or something like Antman 3. That is benefit of your movies making billions you don't have rush out stuff until you are ready.
