Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman form a dynamic duo in Deadpool & Wolverine.
Set six years after events in Deadpool 2, the film sees Wade Wilson (Reynolds) pulled out of retirement by the Time Variance Authority for a new mission to save the universe with Wolverine (Jackman).
Directed by Shawn Levy (Free Guy), the superhero sequel is the first Deadpool film set within the Marvel Cinematic Universe after 20th Century Fox was acquired by Disney.
Other cast members include Emma Corrin as Cassandra Nova and Matthew Macfadyen as Mr. Paradox, while Morena Baccarin, Rob Delaney, Leslie Uggams, and Karan Soni reprise their roles from previous Deadpool outings.
As Cassandra Nova threatens to destroy the multiverse using the Time Ripper, Deadpool and Wolverine manage to successfully shut it down by working together to divert the energy blasts. As the Time Ripper explodes, Cassandra Nova is destroyed.
Despite it being billed as a joint sacrifice to save the multiverse, the duo are, in fact, perfectly alive. As Dr. Paradox is imprisoned for his crimes against the Time Variance Authority, Wade and Logan get some shawarma, only to be greeted by Dogpool, who has made it out of the Void and is now residing in Earth-10005.
As Logan tells Wade he won’t be sticking around, we later see the opposite is true, as Wade introduces him to his roommate Blind Al. Logan and the rest of Wade’s friends are all then seen hanging out together in his apartment, showing he’s now part of his inner circle.
While the pair’s future role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is unclear, they end the film, at least, seeing eye-to-eye as friends.
After the credits have rolled, there’s one small scene where Deadpool, in the offices of the Time Variance Authority, sets out to prove he’s not the one responsible for Johnny Storm’s (Chris Evans) death after being accused of putting words in his mouth.
Deadpool plays back the footage from when him, Wolverine, Johnny are locked in a cage earlier in the film, only with previously unseen dialogue where Johnny insults Cassandra Nova in very graphic detail – proving that Deadpool was telling the truth all along.
