The lone big-screen release from the MCU in 2024, Deadpool & Wolverine is a standalone sequel in the Deadpool franchise and the first R-rated movie in the cinematic universe's 16-year history.

Marvel Fans Completely Missed a Key Piece of MCU Lore in Deadpool & Wolverine

In Deadpool & Wolverine, Reynolds and Jackman's eponymous antiheroes are tasked with a major Multiverse mission by the Time Variance Authority's Mr. Paradox (Matthew Macfadyen) to preserve the sacred timeline, with Deadpool facing the potential loss of his loved ones. The film introduces the MCU to the mutant era, featuring several characters from 20th Century Fox's X-Men universe, including Sabretooth (Tyler Mane), Pyro (Aaron Stanford) and X-23 (Dafne Keen). The film also sees its main characters take on Emma Corrin's chief antagonist, Cassandra Nova, who threatens to warp the timeline for personal gain alongside her hired guns.

Boasting one of the best audience scores on Rotten Tomatoes for an MCU film ever (95%), Deadpool & Wolverine also included several surprise celebrity cameos, including Wesley Snipes' Blade, Jennifer Garner as Elektra and Channing Tatum's Gambit. The film also saw Chris Evans' MCU return, though he played The Fantastic Four's Johnny Storm/Human Torch rather than Captain America.

Deadpool & Wolverine is now showing in theaters across North America.
