Deadpool & Wolverine: 100 Marvel Easter Eggs & References Explained
Deadpool & Wolverine quite literally has over 100 different Easter eggs, references, and cameos galore. Here are all the ones we found.
Is Hugh Jackman Done As Wolverine Or Will He Be Back?
The ending ofDeadpool & Wolverine, where the new Logan variant is now staying behind on Earth-10005, leaves the door wide open for a potential return. At the time of this story’s publication,Marvel Studios and Jackman have not announced any further plans for more Wolverine appearances. However, anyone who followed Jackman throughout theDeadpool & Wolverinepress tour can easily tell that there are more ideas in the works.
It would be weird after all theMarvel cameos inDeadpool & Wolverine, which included ties to the MCU, that Jackman wouldn’t be back as Logan at least once or twice. With the ending of Phase 6 of The Multiverse Saga being rumored to serve as a soft reboot for the MCU,the next few years may be the last time Jackman can appear as Wolverine. If a new actor is being eyed to take over as Wolverine for the MCU’s main timeline, having Jackman in Phase 6 would be a proper conclusion.
Since Phase 6 will haveAvengers: DoomsdayandAvengers: Secret Wars,it would be great to see Jackman’s Wolverine finally get to meet the Avengers as they get ready for their ultimate multiverse adventure. With the amount of Marvel multiverse crossovers that could happen in the nextAvengersfilms, there are so many great interactions that Jackman could have in Phase 6. Hopefully, more news will emerge about Jackman’s return to the MCU later in the year, following his great appearance inDeadpool & Wolverine.
