Ryan Reynolds has made Deadpool one of the most fan-favorite superheroes on the big screen. He is undoubtedly the best incarnation of the character that viewers came across twice in past years. The Merc with a Mouth is full of surprises, but one thing that has remained constant is his hilarious insults and snappy one-liners. In fact, his dialogue once went so much beyond the boundaries of the superhero world that it wrapped the iconic characters of Henry Cavill and Millie Bobby Brown.

In Deadpool 2, he made two amazing references to the Holmes siblings, which made fans practically fall out of their seats laughing. Did you notice it?

Deadpool 2 had many memorable scenes, but the interview sequence made viewers chuckle hard. When Ryan Reynold sat down to choose members for his team, it somehow did not turn out that cool. So after being frustrated with all the auditions, he told Weasel he would love to live on a planet where he was less powerful than him. “A whole bunch of functional idiots and I’m gonna be their Superman,” said Wilson.

The actor referred to Cavill’s Superman, who became the ultimate savior of humankind in DC movies. Also, in the post-credit scene of the movie, he gave a nod to Brown’s Stranger Things character Eleven. The 46-year-old called Negasonic Teenage Warhead Eleven who was trying to fix Cable’s time dial. Well, it did match her because the mutant attended the telepathy class of Emma Frost in Genosha.

The creators of Deadpool 3 have remained silent about the plotlines of the highly anticipated film. But from what the actors have teased in the past months, it is sure that the movie will take place before the feral X-Men’s death in Logan. This means Wade Wilson will time travel to make things right. In fact, Hugh Jackman has confirmed that time travel will be interpreted in the threequel in a big way.

The movie will reunite the cynical mutant with his X-Men Origins: Wolverine co-star. Ryan Reynolds and Jackman are certainly not on good terms in the film as the shooting clips have noted the actors doing fight scenes. So fans should tighten their seat belt to dive into this world once again on May 3, 2024.
