‘Loki’ may have dashed those hopes of an official ‘X-Men’ Easter Egg, but speculation intensifies that ‘Deadpool 3’ will do the exact opposite

Anyone who saw that door (you know the one) in the season 2 premiere of X-Men, at least until it was shut down.

While there’s always a chance they could be lying, the creative team behind the Disney Plus series claiming Deadpool 3 are set to tell the opposite story.

Set photos and the returns of both Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine and Jennifer Garner’s Elektra have made it abundantly clear Ryan Reynolds’ return as the Merc with a Mouth will be a key part of folding the MCU’s many realities together ahead of Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars, but fresh scuttlebutt has gone into a little more detail.

According to self-professed “scooper” with Jackman’s mutton-chopped mutant near the top of the list.

In addition, fellow tipster CanWeGetSomeToast offers that Deadpool using Cable’s time machine puts him directly in the TVA’s crosshairs, and when he finds out about the aforementioned multiversal army, he mounts an escape and sets about convincing Wolverine to be his ally.

Of course, it isn’t anywhere close to being confirmed, but after being drawn in by a false dawn already, it certainly sounds as though Deadpool 3 will prove itself as the treasure trove of X-Men Easter Eggs and connective tissue we’ve all been waiting for.
