As Marvel fans eagerly await the next chapters of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), the buzz surrounding Deadpool’s possible involvement in future Avengers movies continues to grow. Ryan Reynolds, who has brilliantly portrayed the Merc with a Mouth, recently hinted at what might be on the horizon for Deadpool in the MCU, particularly as Avengers Secret Wars approaches.
As part of the promotion campaign for his new movie, Reynolds held a Multi-award-winning film, “Murder Mystery 2,” which was directed by Jeremy Garelick. The writer remarked in a conversation with Variety that Evans voiced hope for another reunion with Wolverine but didn’t specify the details. In contrast, his statements generate a number of questions. For this reason, let’s analyze what aspect of the future of the franchise Evan Leak The Multiverse Saga and what implications this might have on Deadpool, Logan, and other popular MCU characters.
Deadpool Joins the MCU: What We Know So Far
Fans eagerly waited for the moment Deadpool was officially included in the MCU. Few of us do not know Deadpool. And best believe, those who know him can stake a claim with a keystone in a wall that Deadpool will bring a taste of comic relief like no other in the MCU like most Marvel heroes don’t. However, even though Deadpool made his on-screen first official crossover debut in Deadpool & Wolverine, which took place on earth-10005, he is featured alongside Wolverine in the Fox X-men universe, but further developments within the core MCU timeline leave a lot to be desired.
The Success of Deadpool & Wolverine
Directed by Shawn Levy, Deadpool & Wolverine shattered records in the summer of 2024, debuting with a massive $211 million in domestic box office sales. Not only did it become the highest-grossing R-rated movie of all time, but it also set the stage for Deadpool’s expanded presence in Marvel’s blockbuster universe. With a global gross of $1.337 billion, Deadpool became the second-highest-grossing Marvel character, surpassed only by Spider-Man. Reynolds’ portrayal of Deadpool, paired with Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine, struck a chord with audiences, raising anticipation for more Deadpool adventures within the MCU.
Reynolds’ Hints on Deadpool’s Future
Ryan Reynolds has been toying with Deadpool fans’ anticipation of the character’s place in the MCU in the latest episode of Variety Awards Circuit Podcast. Speaking about whether or not Deadpool will make an appearance with the Avengers in the upcoming Avengers movies, Avengers: Doomsday or Avengers Secret Wars, Ryan Reynolds revealed, “Let’s wait and see what happens.” His response was funny, but it also made fans want to find out how Deadpool would eventually interact with the Avengers.
Avengers Secret Wars – Release Date and Expectations
Marvel has officially announced the release date of Avengers Secret Wars to be May 7, 2027. It is the last installment following Avengers: The Kang Dynasty in the year 2026, which intends to unite the greatest champions of Marvel. Considering the recent films of the MCU, which have emphasized the multiverse, fans are optimistic that Avengers Secret Wars will let Deadpool meet some of the memorable heroes of the MCU.
Who Could Be the Villain in Avengers Secret Wars?
In Avengers Secret Wars, fans are likely to see Doctor Doom return as a major villain, this time with Robert Downey Jr. playing the hero in yet another twist. The return of Doom would be a refreshing change, and considering how Deadpool loves to add comedic relief to everything, the dynamics between Doom and the Merc with a Mouth would be hilarious to behold.
Plot Speculations for Avengers Secret Wars
Even though Marvel has kept certain details of the plot of Avengers Secret Wars, it is expected that Secret Wars will depict a battle over the multiverse similar to the one in the comics. It is believed that superheroes from many universes band together against a cosmic threat, most likely Doctor Doom. This arc could be perfect for Deadpool, where he is ripped out of his universe and thrown into a dimension full of bland superheroes.
The Role of the Multiverse in Deadpool’s Journey
We have seen Deadpool functioning in Earth-10005 in Deadpool & Wolverine. Considering this is not the main MCU Earth, the multiverse could serve as a way for this character to join the primary Avengers plot. There has been the TVA in several MCU projects lately, and they could bring Deadpool to the main timeline of MCU in time for Avengers Secret Wars.
Will Gambit and Copycat Appear in Future MCU Films?
In a good turn of events, Reynolds noted that Marvel Studios is eager to resurrect Gambit, with Channing Tatum likely stepping into the role. Not to mention, Morena Baccarin has also made it clear that she’d love to reprise her role as Copycat. Considering Deadpool’s eccentric network of outfits and bonds, it is not unrealistic to imagine both Gambit and Copycat teaming up with him in later installments of the MCU, increasing the X-Men count even further.
Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Deadpool
Applications for Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, scheduled to premiere on May 1, 2026, will include a battle with Kang the Conqueror before Avengers Secret Wars. Multiverse themes are expected to be present in this movie, and it may, therefore, also detail the concepts of Secret Wars. While it hasn’t been ‘officially’ explained how Deadpool fits into The Kang Dynasty, fans have reason to be optimistic about his appearance because of his apparent contribution to Avengers Secret Wars.
Conclusion
The future of the Deadpool character seems to be interesting after Ryan Reynolds’ first appearance in Deadpool, as he is projected to return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe for his next movie. Fans are eagerly waiting to see if they will get a humorous yet action-packed performance from Deadpool as part of the Avengers movies. He has successfully played the role of the Deadpool character in previous movies, and fans are already gushing over what more his character can do. He always manages to mix comedy and action, which all fans look forward to when it comes to superheroes.
