However, the condemnation of the Phase Four and Five sagas has pushed enough loyalists to the brink, making the film a last-ditch sink-or-swim attempt on Kevin Feige’s part. Considering Marvel’s current status as a low-gain enterprise for the fans, it will be enough for the movie to perform better than any one of the lackluster Phase Four films to impress the audiences.

Deadpool & Wolverine Invites Some Wild Theories

It’s not the first time since Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman first dropped a sneak peek into their upcoming adventure-of-a-lifetime that wild theories have popped up all across the board. Ranging from Taylor Swift as Lady Deadpool/Dazzler to Jennifer Garner as Elektra, there is no shortage of rumors on who will appear next in the cameo-infested threequel saga.

However, the latest Deadpool & Wolverine teaser points toward a more close-to-home MCU superhero as the next one in line to appear in a cameo role. And the sneak peek has, in turn, led to some pretty wild fan theories on how the superhero plays into the multiversal equation of Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool 3.

While it is not entirely clear where Deadpool & Wolverine stands in the multiversal parking lot of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a fly-by from our friendly neighborhood superhero cannot be wholly discarded as an impossible occurrence.

After all, Spider-Man did go solo in the aftermath of his last mission in No Way Home, and as such, a glimpse of the web-slinger doing his superhero duties will be a refreshing soft-launch for Tom Holland‘s next venture in Spider-Man 4.

Deadpool & Wolverine Unleashes Multiversal Chaos

The Foxverse-turned-Marvel movie featuring the enigmatic duo, Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, is now all the rage as Deadpool & Wolverine becomes the unofficial savior of the MCU. Via Ryan Reynolds’ newly-ordained identity as Marvel Jesus, the weight that Deadpool & Wolverine carries on its bipartisan shoulder has made the film into a multiversal rescue mission on behalf of the entire studio.

Beyond its underlying connotations, the Deadpool threequel serves a singular purpose — introducing the X-Men to the MCU mainframe, and who better to be the torchbearer than Foxverse’s very own Wolverine? Hugh Jackman’s quarter-century-long journey as the clawed mutant has led to this very point in time — the crossroad where the Marvel timeline meets the X-Men universe.

Despite Jackman’s formal retirement as the original Wolverine, his alternate timeline version of Old Man Logan will have to be enough for Feige’s too-little-too-late attempt at patching the Marvel family back together.
