“The X-Men should be introduced to the MCU through Deadpool on a laptop clicking and dragging the X-Men from a folder labeled “20th Century Fox” to a folder labeled “Marvel Studios”, and then we just act as if they’ve been there all along without any explanation or backstory,” he wrote on the social media platform this past weekend.
Enjoying the notion, which naturally seems to track for Deadpool’s meta behavior both in Marvel Comics and in his blockbuster movies, Marvel fans started adding their support. “You’re joking but like I’d 100% support this idea,” one wrote. “A lot of the castings Fox already had were great and those actors deserve another chance.” Another noted that “been here all along” had already worked just fine for the likes of Moon Knight, the Eternals, and Captain Marvel.
While we know that Ryan Reynolds will return as Wade Wilson in Deadpool 3 for Marvel Studios over the next few years, we still can’t predict how any of the other Fox-Marvel integrations will shake out in the future, which is probably for the best!
