The “Deadpool & Wolverine” Teaser Provides a Key Hint About Logan’s Return
Since Hugh Jackman joined the cast of “Deadpool & Wolverine,” fans have been buzzing with theories about how Wolverine could return, especially since his character died in the movie “Logan.”
The film’s marketing has even playfully hinted at these theories, such as one instance where Deadpool tries to explain Wolverine’s return but gets interrupted by loud music.
Jackman has hinted that the Marvel multiverse could allow for different versions of Wolverine to appear from various timelines.
This idea is supported in the new teaser for “Deadpool & Wolverine.” In it, Deadpool talks as if he and Wolverine have met before and discusses the events of their upcoming movie as if they’re happening far in the future.
This suggests that Deadpool might be speaking to Wolverine at a time between the events of “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” and their latest MCU movie, although it’s still not clear exactly when or in which universe this is happening.
In the extended credits of “Deadpool 2” from 2018, Deadpool gains the ability to travel through time. During a montage set to Cher’s “If I Could Turn Back Time,” he uses this power to fix unresolved storylines and crack more jokes, including a scene where he stops the real Ryan Reynolds from agreeing to star in the unsuccessful 2011 film “Green Lantern.
This time-traveling ability is probably how Logan is brought back in “Deadpool & Wolverine,” no matter which version of the iconic character he is.
