Deadpool 3 Will Lay the Groundwork for Avengers: Secret Wars
Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool 3 is soon approaching, and fans are incredibly excited about the potential of the film and how it will change the MCU. Reynolds and Hugh Jackman are leading the much-anticipated threequel, which is expected to be a full-on multiversal adventure that will have a great impact on the MCU’s future.
Various set photos of the film have been leaked in recent months (via Screenrant) and based on these, BM Reviews on YouTube has asserted that the Void introduced in the Loki series will be the MCU’s version of Battleworld from the Secret Wars comic. In the storyline, various realities and universes of the Marvel lore are combined and co-exist in one common planet.
Through the Loki series, the Void at the end of time represents a wasteland where the TVA dumps elements and realities that go against the sacred timeline. This can explain how various Marvel characters throughout history appear in Deadpool 3, thus becoming an extensive portion in which the film takes place.
Several of the set leaks include the Fantasticar, Moon Knight’s Truck, and Red Skull’s car. There is also the presence of Minute Men from Loki, the 20th Century Fox logo along with rumors of various X-Men cameos adding to the craziness. Therefore, all these separate elements coming together under one reality would only mean that the Void is poised to be the main setting of Avengers: Secret Wars.
