Deadpool Deadpool News and Discussion - Part 4

Tbf, he's even said during the Logan press release that the one thing that would've made him pause in his decision to be done with the role would've been Feige giving him the call. With hindsight, this actually makes a lot more sense than maybe initially thought

It also helps he and Ryan seem to be really good friends in real life as well. So hey, big paycheck, work with a good friend, and be a part of the MCU. Hard to say no to that.

 

[Arachnerd]

Someone's probably already hard at work on editing and trying to decipher what they're saying.

 

[Doctor Jones]

So it sounds like he might he a full on supporting character.

I'd be open if it was a cameo making fun of these returning characters but it doesn't seem to be the case. That's really disappointing.

 

[Da-Scribe]

So why connect an animated revival of a 1990s X-Men cartoon to the MCU?

Because it’s the multiverse and they can.

Lol Im not even mad or questioning his return, happy as a bug. Im just approaching as this is wolverine years before his death or like most are saying Logan was in a separate universe in a possible timeline where everything went to crap. I highly doubt though were gonna see Jackman be wolverine for another 10 years in the MCU especially at Hughs age and the shape he needs to be in continuously.

I imagine it’ll be similar to Cable’s screentime

 

[NotNickFury]

Don't be surprised if he is literally blown to pieces moments after he puts on that suit.

I hadn't thought about that, but I'd laugh if he got a Brad Pitt sort of kill maybe a second after you see him.

 

[TheVileOne]

I don't like it and I hope it doesn't happen.

 

[Da-Scribe]

I’m not out to change your opinion on it.

It’s simply that between the multiverse, the 2x use of the ‘97 theme, and MoM Prof. X being modeled after the ‘97 version…well Marvel appears to be hinting. May be nothing in the end, but it’s fun for some of us to speculate.

So then what you're saying is...

Spoiler

Animated Series Xavier is already neck snapped.

Maybe. He isn’t part of the revival series after all. But who knows? Could be two totally different universes in the end.

Then I truly don't see any point in connecting them.

 

[BlackFox]

That first pic of Hugh in the suit is going to be...........momentous.

Man, all the teasing online is killing me. We had John Krasinski doing tongue-in-cheek quote retweeting. Ryan made an "I can do this all day" reference on instagram. It's probably all nothing, just a reference to Krasinski working with Reynolds on another project now and just a general MCU reference. But it really feels like teases intended to be fuel for fan speculation.

Man I hope not. X-Men '97 doesn't need that kind of pressure.

So why connect an animated revival of a 1990s X-Men cartoon to the MCU?

The way I imagine they'll be "connected" if they are is more along the lines of Captain Carter between What If...? and MoM. Or even Xavier from MoM. In the sense that the MCU will use a version of a character that's familiar (or even essentially identical) to a previous version, without actually affecting the continuity the other way. The Captain Carter that got split in half was for all intents and purposes the same as the one in "What If...?", but it's not actually the exact same one, so the continuity of "What If...?" in season 2 won't be affected by MoM. I don't see Xavier's death impacting X-Men '97 either and clearly it doesn't affect the older Patrick Stewart Xavier(s) from the FOX movies.

Essentially it's a one way connection where the MCU gets to use a version of something audiences are familiar with without infringing on the continuity of those things. It's also similar to the use of Spider-Man villains in No Way Home. They sent those villains back to their universes "cured" or whatever, but if for whatever reason they someday decided to make a Spider-Man 4 or an Amazing Spider-Man 3, they would probably just continue after their previous movie rather than incorporate the new timeline created in No Way Home where those villains had been sent back cured and potentially survived.

Unless that Captain Carter in Multiverse was just another Captain Carter variant. Infinite timelines mean infinite possibilities.

Like I said it might not be. Maybe it’s just a universe that resembles the animated series. Maybe it won’t be anything like that.

But if they do bring the ‘97 version into live action, I think it’d be a good way to incorporate the X-Men into Battleworld without needing to introduce a bunch of new iterations of the characters.

I bet there is some lip readers who could do it easily. Time to check reddit.

It was another variant, that's my entire point. The way I (and from what I can see Da-Scribe too) would expect them to tie it to X-Men '97 is by having a group of X-Men from a world identical/infinitely close up to that point to earth-92131 (the X-Men animated series universe), while technically being different variants. Meaning that for the audience these characters are essentially the X-Men animated series versions of the characters and everything they know from that universe carries over to these versions. But technically they would be from something like earth-92132 instead, meaning that their universe was infinitely close to the animated series universe, but any changes from the moment they appear in the MCU won't carry over to the animated series universe, even though both X-Men universes were potentially identical until the literal second before they appeared in the MCU.

That seems overwrought.

Yeah this is a good breakdown. Could it literally be the exact ‘97 universe just in live action? Maybe. But I think it’s more likely to be a universe that is largely identical so that Marvel can get the OG cast back in accurate costumes for one final send off in the Avengers flicks.

What everyone now wants to see, yes it will be fun/y!
Although I like the Deadpool films, I couldn't give a $#! about Reynolds self-hype drama non-event that is Deadpool vs Wolverine. The ultimate MCU live action vs. I would still really want to see is Hulk vs Wolverine.
If Feige was going to capitulate, it should have been to get that that epic fight made.

 

[Da-Scribe]

You’re kidding yourself if you really think a Deadpool and Wolverine film is a non-event lol.

I'd be on board with that as long as he doesn't rip Logan in half and try to eat his legs in some bizarre, oddly weird power move.

Deadpool, as well as his movies have done, is not really an event film.
