Will Wolverine save the day with the power of friendship? New Deadpool 3 promo art reveals Marvel’s newest best friends!
Deadpool 3 is shaping up to be the crossover of the century, bringing together Ryan Reynolds’ Merc with a Mouth and Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine. While little official footage has been shown of the two together, merch leaks and footage descriptions tease a truly special film in the MCU’s catalog.
This friendship is being celebrated in a new piece of Deadpool 3 promo art. The artwork describes Wolverine and Wade Wilson as “Best Bubs” as a nod to the iconic catchphrase of Hugh Jackman’s Canadian X-Men hero. It’s the latest out of a long line of leaked materials from the MCU movie shown off at CinemaCon.
Deadpool 3’s Scrapped Crossover Plot
Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine wasn’t the only iconic X-Men originally meant to appear in Deadpool 3. A recent rumor suggests that the film was supposed to center around Deadpool and Wolverine traveling back to the original X-Men movie trilogy to stop a grave threat. It’s unclear why this premise was scrapped, though was likely meant to bring the movie closer to the MCU’s continuity.
This doesn’t mean Hugh Jackman is alone in returning as Wolverine, of course. Aaron Stanford is already confirmed to return as Pyro in Deadpool 3, and rumors suggest that other iconic X-Men characters have yet to be revealed for the project. Though if any of them will survive the transition into the MCU seems to be up to the sands of time to tell.
Deadpool and Wolverine is currently expected to be released on July 26, 2024. Stay tuned for the latest news regarding the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel for more content!
