The newest addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s star-studded lineup, Peggy, the charming Pugese, finally made her grand entrance on the red carpet as the “Merc with a Bark” at the London premiere of Deadpool & Wolverine.

While she may have been accompanied by co-stars Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, some of the biggest names in Hollywood, it was Peggy’s night, and she stole the show and the headlines all across social media.

Reynolds even gave her a special introduction before the film began.

“Guys, this is Peggy, a.k.a. Mary Puppins, a.k.a. Dogpool. Get a good look,” Reynolds said in a video posted on his Instagram. “Her nipples are the size of children’s fingers. She won the ugliest dog in Britain, but we’re not telling her that because she’s a 10 in our hearts, isn’t she?”

As hard as it is to believe that the people would dare crown her the ugliest, it is true! Peggy, a Pugese (a mix of pug and Chinese crested), was crowned the UK’s ugliest dog in January 2023. But the saying “Every cloud has a silver lining” probably did stand true for Peggy, as soon enough, in November of that year, Reynolds announced her casting as Dogpool in Deadpool 3, a parallel reality version of the titular character who has been turned into a canine.
